I have question about whether it is best to use windows local user accounts to authenticate against when logging into a website OR using SSL for any communication sent to and from the web server. I know these are slightly different issues here, but I will explain my situation.
Clients will log onto my website and will be gived user access based upon their username and password. Therefore I initially wanted to use windows local user accounts and restrict anon access within IIS. However, I am thinking it would be just as secure to use HTML/ASP webpage and database access to the website, as long as the data was encyrpted.
i am developing an intranet area where my boss says he wants the logon to be related to the local accounts,if no local account exist then they will be refused access, i am a little lost with this.
if anyone might know how to do basic windows auth in asp without bring up the window for username/password. I'm trying to limit who can write to the server (I have a normal login before they can start uploading) but I want all of the users to use the same server account but not know they are.
i am having to write a password protection script that pull the user info from the user accounts on the server. so, that way people within the company can log on using the same user name and password as they would to log on to there computer/the network. any ideas? i will also have to give each user different permissions, but i think i can figure that part out.
We have a legacy, P.O.S. Access database/application that we use for production tracking at work. We are wanting to design a new web application for our intranet to replace it as well as use an Oracle database. I have not used ASP.NET before, but I'm going to start learning so I can work on the new application. In the meantime, I'm thinking of the things I'll need to be able to implement to have this work how we need it to:
1. Convert the Access tables to Oracle and serve them on the intranet 2. Create web forms in ASP.NET to replace the forms used by the Access application 3. Regulate user privileges so that certain users only have access to certain features. This was easy in Access, but I need some sort of administrative area of the new web app. to add new users and regulate their permissions.
Regarding number 3, how would you guys go about doing this? I'm also open to input on the other areas as well.
I am looking at the ability for a user on my website to add/remove/edit windows user accounts, thus controlling access to my website. I have integrated windows authentication checked on the website and unchecked anon access in IIS, so I am always asked for a username and password.
I have seen some ADSI scripts that I can use in my ASP pages to manipulate local user accounts. However, when I try and use these they dont work as I need to have admin rights. Of course I don't wish to add the user to the admin group for security reasons.... Anyone have a code snippet to do this?
I want to allow users to send information from their local database to my web form. Their local database has a dsn, I am hoping that will help. Basically I am doing this because I do not want them to have to enter information twice. If I can get help populating a form on screen I can take it from there to my online database.
my current page protection is unacceptable. I need to get the Windows Login Name of the current person logged in. It will then be no problem to check it against a database. So, how do I get the login of the current windows user?
Is it possible to get the current user that is logged on to the computer? I want to use this as the basis of my validation on the site instead of asking them to login in again. I know it could be a security issue if they keep the computer unattended.
Is there a way in ASP (3.0, not .NET) for me to determine who the current windows users is (i.e. the user who was authenticated and who is "running" this IIS session)?
I have an application written in ASP, originally for a Windows environment, but now has been ported to Sun Solaris running Sun One ASP. One of my pages includes a form that sends data to several people via e-mail. Sun One ASP uses ChilliMail the is similar to CDONTS.
Sending to addresses hosted by my ISP works fine, but I need to send to other addresses as well, which fails because my ISP uses SMTP-AUTH.I need to send a connection string including an identifier and a password.which tag it should be attached to? .HOST, or . FROM
Is there a way to clear or reset an authenticated user so that the next visitor using the same machine (without having to close the browser) has to log in with their own account?
I'm not a professional programmer, but I am responsible for our company's intranet site which includes many of my own VB.NET and come C# custom web apps as well as SharePoint Services 3.0 (very soon).
We have a web form that will be created into a web part, and we need to have this form essentially create a new account on our FTP server. This server is on our DMZ and isolated from our domain completely. It is running Windows 2000 (not server edition) and prior to my being with this company, I have been told an idiot was in charge of creating accounts upon request by employees, so they bought him some cheap $45 version of WinFTP because he didn't understand IIS. Code:
i've been looking EVERYWHERE and I can't find anything on how to send an email within asp. But not just an email, my smtp server requires authentication and i haven't been able to come across anything that supports sending username/passwords.
I have written an ASP.NET 2.0 application that uses Active Directory or ADAM to manage account users - the site has a page that allows people to create an account (much like any site). The page populates the AD with all the information and the user account but I am unable to enable the account. Microsoft has information on how to do that here --> http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...ting_a_user.asp (the sample is for Visual Basic) - and I am unable to complete the bottom portion of the script. Can some one point me in the right direction - or can you tell me how I can add a snippet of VBscript code to an ASP.NET page.
I am using the Active DS Type library - not sure why there are multiple ones (System.DirectoryServices) but it is rather confusing - I seem to accomplish one thing with one and another with the other (they did have trouble co-existing however). Anyway my script works very well but I am not able to access the properties required to enable the account.
Here is a simple version (no error checking) of the code.....
Is there anyway I can get the information about a file on the local machine of a user that is reading pages from my web site? Scripting.FileSystemObject does not have permission to do this, and I want to check the size of a file before I try to get it uploaded.
An application runs on server, and is used for Hour-registration. Now I want to run the application local, I use SQL Server 2005, and managed to fix connection changes.
But now, I get this error everytime I run the application:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error Error Code :0x800A01CA
Error source : Error Description :Variable uses an Automation type not supported in VBScript
The webserver I'm using (which I can't make any changes to) has a Dutch-localsettings. When doing simple calculations the decimal-symbol in ASP is a , (komma). Is it possible to force IIS to use a . as decimal symbol by code? (IIS5)
I would like to evaluate some shopping cart software to use on my next project. I am new to asp and as yet my hosting does not support it. Before I go ahead and upgrade my hosting I wanted to see how the various packages work.
I am running XP Pro SP2 and have installed IIS. The folders seem to be where they should be and I have access to the settings through the Administrative Tools.
When I put a htm file in the wwwroot folder it loads fine if I type http://localhost but the asp files are either downloaded or opened in dreamweaver.
Do I need to do something special to enable asp files to open on my local machine??
I'm not a networking/IT guy, but I was put in charge of figuring out how to use ASP to tap into an Oracle db for my office. I am using a windows 2000 laptop, and I want to be able to run ASP code on my local desktop (without being plugged into a network).
I need a lot of help here. I know I have to turn my computer into a webserver, but I'm not certain what I need to do with the IIS. What do I need to do in general to make my computer a webserver? In addition, I will be using a local Oracle database. So I wasn't sure what I would need to do to make that db available for querying with ASP. What is the best way to make that connection?
I am running this code on my local IIS and everything works fine. The code detects the file I select using the INPUT TYPE=FILE. The problem is that when I move this code up to my host’s web server, it never works as in it never finds the file. It is the exact same code so why is it working on my local IIS but not on the web server? It is ASP code.
Code: set fso = createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If fso.FileExists (strValue) then 'File exists continue with code Else Response.Redirect("aspError.asp") End if
I am trying to set up an internet page on our intranet that contains logoff/shutdown and restart buttons.This needs to work in a remote desktop situation which rules out various options.
Next stage is to call this .exe from a webpage...which I'm struggling with. My test code (to test a reboot) is below but doesn't seem to work. Can anyone help remembering this needs .exe needs to run on the local machine and not the server.
How do I execute a users program from a web page? When a user goes to a webpage - I want a link on that page that will execute a program on the users local hard drive - like say...notepad.exe . Everything I have tried will only execute it on the server.
have an SQL DB which clients access via asp pages through the internet, in the case of a power outage I need to write that data automatically in the background to a txt file on their local machine, I would imagine it would involve a script of some kind.
