I have restricted access to a site by using Integrated Windows Authentication and turning off anonymous access. This way I can then show them their real name (from looking up on Active Directory and using the server variable LOGON_USER) and do other related Active Directory tasks. How can I then prompt again for their user credentials, ...
We have an application which uses an instance of Sql Server locally for its backend storage. The administrator windows login has had its sysadmin right revoked, and instead two sql logins have been created; one for the application with a secret password and one read only login we let users view the raw data with. This was working fine u...
Let us imagine for a moment that I have a piece of hardware that can act as an authentication for a user on a given system. I want to write an application in C++ to run as a service, look for this device and if found log the appropriate user in. I believe I have found the API's I would need to use to perform the hardware and service port...
I've got an issue with WCF, streaming, and security that isn't the biggest deal but I wanted to get people's thoughts on how I could get around it. I need to allow clients to upload files to a server, and I'm allowing this by using the transferMode="StreamedRequest" feature of the BasicHttpBinding. When they upload a file, I'd like to ...
I am not certain this is the correct forum for my question, but it is probably solvable by using an aspx file. The problem is that I have an IIS server that has a virtual directory that is referenced via an UNC, on the same intranet. When I have Windows Integrated Authentication turned on, the application does authenticate me, as I can...
In our office we have setup TFS for project development. The TFS Server is WIN 2003 server SP2 with VSTFS 2008 and is running fine. Now we need to setup a TFS Proxy server on client site for client to access. Before going for the client setup, I wanted to build and test proxy in our office on a dummy server (will call it Proxy server her...
Environment: SharePoint 2007 (Integrated Windows Authentication) Silverlight 3.0 (Communicating with SharePoint via WCF) On the SharePoint site, we have a list that contains links to other sites throughout the SharePoint web application. The silverlight app traverses this first list via Web Service call to /_vti_bin/Lists.asmx and m...
Our code relies on checking the Context.User.Identity value in the Global.asax Application_AuthenticateRequest(...) method to retrieve some information about the logged in user. This works fine in classic mode but when I flip IIS to use the Integrated Pipeline "Context.User" comes back as null, but only intermittently. Any ideas why? ...
I'm having a nightmare creating my first Window Authenticated app... There is a lot of documentation available on the web but despite trying to follow the most common approaches, I'm still limping along. My requirements are initially very simple: I have a page for viewing records (in a separate SQL Server), which I want any authenticate...
I'm NTLM (authenication="windows" in the web.config) with an asp.net mvc 2.0 site. Right now once a user logs in it keeps them logged in for weeks at a time. The use of the application is being opened up to users who share computers that use logged in service accounts. I need the site to reprompt each user for their AD credentials...
I am retrofitting an intranet application to uses integrated windows authentication. The application is built in asp classic/vbscript. The application authenticates users by obtaining their username from the Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") method, and checking the name against a list of registered users in a MSSQL database. This ...
Hi, I have a MOSS web site configured with Windows Integrated Authentication. I added a couple of local users in the server, added them to Sharepoint groups, and I can log into my site (as long as the local user is part of the administrators group... odd). If I add a domain user to the Owners group, I can't access the site with it. An...
The following code worked nicely until our admins enabled KERBEROS on our servers: var image = new BitmapImage(new Uri("http://sharepoint/sites/Symbols/Symbols/ABCD.png")); The server is in the local intranet zone and requires windows authentication. After our admins also enabled KERBEROS in this domain, http downloads and webservice ...

We're using BITS to upload files from machines in our retail locations to our servers. BITS will stop transferring a file if the user who owns the BITS job logs off. Therefore, we're using a Windows Service running as LocalSystem to submit the jobs to BITS and be the job owner. This allows transfers to continue 24/7. However, it raises ...
On our production servers, the admins created a WebUser active directory account which is users for anonymous access to IIS and is also used to authenticate database access with our SQL Server instances using Integrated Security=SSPI in the connection string and identity impersonate="true" in the web.config. I've often come across situ...

I have Authentication mode = windows on, and have messed with several other settings and switches both in the website and the iis manager, but all result in the same thing. Everything works in testing on the localhost, pages dis...
