I have an C# asp.net app using the default Sql MembershipProvider. My web.config has a few settings that control how I'm using this Provider: enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresUniqueEmail="true" passwordFormat="Hashed" minRequiredPasswordLength="5" The problem I'm running into is that when people r...
This is crazy, I have been trying for hours to get this to work. My client wants to be able to reset password for uses who have forgotten them The only parameter he has is the UserName. He does NOT want the user to be able to reset the password themselves, no that would be too easy...ARGHHHHH!! Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions how...
Hi, I'm having some trouble with the ASP.NET 2.0 Login Control. I've setup a database with the aspI.net regsql tool. I've checked the application name. It is set to "/". The application can access the SQL Server. In fact, when I go to retrieve the password, it will even send me the password. Despite this, the login control contin...
I have an ASP.Net Web site using .Net Membership with a SQL Server provider, so the users and roles are stored in the SQL tables created by Aspnet_regsql.exe. Is this architecture totally self-contained and portable, or are users in it somehow bound to the specific Web site on which they create their account? Put another way, if we cre...
Today I moved my web application to .net 4.0 and Forms Auth just stopped working. After several hours of digging into my SqlMembershipProvider (simplified version of built-in SqlMembershipProvider), I found that HMACSHA256 hash is not consistent. This is the encryption method: internal string EncodePassword(string pass, int passwordForm...

My web app uses the sql memebership provider. Running it locally all is well, deploying to a dev server it works fine too in firefox, but in IE8 something unexpected is happening. Once a user logs in they're supposed to be redirected to home.aspx. What's happening when I attempt to login is it appears to accept the login credentials bu...
I have checked the following article on how to use the sqlMembershipProvider. My question, is this the way most of the asp.net applications authentication schemes implemented.

Hello, I have a SQL script that creates users in in my database. It uses the .Net membership stored procs. At this point it works fine. The only issue is that the passwords are saved clear text.

I have a WPF form that I am trying to use with a SQL Membership Provider we have setup.

In the SQLMembershipProvider source for ASP.NET membership, there is a custom exception, MembershipPasswordException. The definition of it is not part of the source, but when I do a goto definition on it, it opens the definition, which indicates: [from metatdata] and the file it came from is a dll, system.web.dll from a temporary direct...

I'm in the process of migrating an application from .Net forms to MVC. The application currently uses a custom membership provider and I would like to convert it to use the SQL Membership provider. I'm hoping to use the current user passwords as is. The "old" application uses "ComputeHash" in System.Security.Cryptography.SHA1CryptoSer...
Hi, I have a custom membership provider I made up to use because our database is completely different than the ASP one. It does not have any fields such as PasswordQuestion, IsAnonymous, LastActivityDate...I mean our DB uses none of those and stores roles in the same Table as Users so I'm not sure if using the provider makes any sense. ...

Hopefully you folks can clarify some of this for me. I have a web-application using the Sql Membership Provider and it talks to a second web-application through a WCF Service. Both applications share the same Sql Membership Provider datastore...but I need each WCF Service call to authenticate the user. Now, I've looked at a LOT of sam...
