Cookie And Db User Authentication

This is a question that has probably been answered before on the
newsgroup but probably in fragments. This is what I would like to do,
and I only have a very vague idea where to find the answer. Directions
would be useful.

1. Users arrive at the site. If they are registered they log in. If not
they sign up for registration.

2. The authentication information such as username and password are
held in a db, for security reasons the password should not be passed in
plain text.

3. When the user is logged in the session information should be held in
a cookie so that if the user returns in a short period of time they
will automatically be logged in. The cookie will also be used to
personalise certain parts of the site.

Cookie: How To Plant On Authentication?

I've a login page, which, on successful authentication, will bring the user to a welcome page.

So here's the question: How and where do I plant a cookie that keeps track of whether the user is logged in or logged out and also contain the username of the user in the cookie?

Here's an excerpt of my coding: .....

NT User Authentication - Is It Possible?

I'm facing a situation where my team leader wants me to create some ASP code that will pull the user's ID (which is no problem - request the LOGON_USER server variable) and THEN pull that user's NT Permissions to determine what kind of permissions the user will have when he/she comes onto the website. There is to be no logon screen at all. The permissions cannot be determined via a database or through cookies. Only NT Authentication can be used.

I have a small hunch that the HTTP_AUTHORIZATION server variable might provide a clue, but the value of that variable is a bunch of (encrypted?) gibberish that means nothing to me, except probably the NTLM part at the beginning. Is there a way to decode the value of that variable into something coherent that I can use in my code?

User LogIn And Authentication

I know how to grab the users windows login. I would like to use this to establish permissions for a user on my site. In order for this to be valid, I need for the user to have to verify their network password.

Is there any way to compare the password entered against the windows authentication? I would also like to be able to call the user by name instead of a login. Is there a way to get this from an Outlook address book or something?

User Authentication With Redirect

I have a SQL table with two fields (userID, and userName). I would to create a UserVerification page that would you either the AUTH_USER or LOGON_USER to validate their access. If they have access, send them page to the page(s) they tried to open and display the userName, etc; if not, redirect to an not authorized page. The trouble I am having (other than being fairly new to ASP) is:

How do I set up two session variables - one to hold the authorized status and second to hold the UserName from the UserVerfication page. Secondly, how to you set up the verification page to redirect them back to the requesting page, if authorized.

USER AUTHENTICATION, Cookies Problem?

USER AUTHENTICATION (LOGIN/LOGOUT procedure)
When the user LOGS IN his user name, access rights and other
user-related information is stored into Session variables

Session("access") = "blabla"
Session("login") = "nickname"

when the user LOGS OUT (or the session expires) this
information is discarded

Session("access") = ""
Session("login") = ""

NOTE: I do NOT use IP address for user authentication.

PROBLEM:

After the first user logs in to my site, any other user (different PC behind that NAT) that opens internet browser (MSIE) and visits my site is ALREADY logged in as the first user!

It seems that the problem is only restricted to users that are "hidden" behind single IP address (using NAT). The logging works perfectly for any not behind NAT user. It acts as if only one cookie file was created for all users that access my site from behid NAT; as if the cookie was created on the NAT router and not directly on client's computer.

Login User With Cookie From Another Server

We have an intranet which is personalized using a cookie which we set. I have an outside vendor who is developing an application which will live on a seperate server. Is there a way they can read the cookie which we set to log user into their application so that we can make it a seamless transition?

IE Does Not Set-Cookie With ASPSESSIONID When User Comes With JSESSIONID

I have code written in VBScript that accepts a POST submission from an external server to perform an auto-login to our website. I am experiencing an issue with Internet Explorer ONLY that I have determined using Fiddler.

The problem is that when I POST to this page, I need to set a few session variables that are passed on to the following page after logging in. But using fiddler, I have realized that for some reason, in IE, the "Set-cookie" statement in the headers is never acted on by the server. On all following pages the "set-cookie" header is sent on every page, but the ASP SESSION header is never set that indicates the session was started.

If I do the same test in Firefox, it works perfectly fine, no problem. So it seems IE is the issue.

One other fairly important piece of the problem appears to be that the external server that is initiating the POST submission is running Java, so when the user is on the external server their browser is maintaing a JSESSIONID value. But when they submit the POST form over to our server, the Set-Cookie directive is trying to set an ASPSESSIONID, which is never accepted by the browser...

So is it possible that for some reason IE is not able to handle a user coming from a JSESSIONID over to an ASPSESSIONID?

I need to somehow work around this, or somehow force the ASPSESSIONID to kick in, because it is critical that I can set session variables for use on later pages.

Response.cookie In Session_onstart Event And IE 6.0 Cookie Acceptance

When I set a cookie in global.asa in the sub session_onstart, even if
I have "privacy" in IE 6.X set to "block all cookies" the cookie is
still set, and I can get it on other pages.

I can't find an article that addresses this as a specific issue. Why
does the browser get the cookie when it is set in the session_onstart
event even when I have "block all cookies" set?

Session Cookie Vs. Regular Cookie

I want to know what's the differences between session cookie and regular cookie.

In ASP, when we create cookie, we do the following to identify an user:

Is this regular cookie? How about session cookie? and when to use which?

ADSI - Trying To Enable A User - The User Add Works Very Well

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.....

Authentication

I have a page that authenticates users by reading
Request.ServerVariables("AUTH_USER") and
Request.ServerVariables("AUTH_TYPE"). When users try to access this
page from windows NT/2000, it works fine (prompts them for their
credentials when they're not on the same domain, and then lets them
in). Now, some of the users got XP boxes, and can't get in to the
page. It prompts them for their credentials but when they enter them,
just keeps prompting them. The credentials they are entering are
correct. What is different on XP that is causing this problem and is
there any setting I can modify on the server side to prevent this from
happening.

Authentication

I had to transfer an ASP Web Application (developed by another person) to a different web server. It seems to work but not completely.

I have some problems with authentication: it is based on a username and a password stored in a SQL Server's table. These data are requested via basic authentication (not a IIS level but I think it is used to create the authentication window in which put username and password). The problem is that it doesn't accept username and password and, after three times, it redirect me to a page telling "You don't have rights to see this page". What could I do? .....

Authentication

I have written a simple login script that checks a username/password from an Access database. the login.asp page sets a session("loggedin") at zero. The username and password are checked successfully and the user is redirected to admin.asp. The admin.asp page has an if-statement at the top that checks the session variable to 1, which is set after successful dB check.

The problem is that if you go directly to admin.asp without going through the login process, that is, without ever going to the login page.... simple typing something like http://localhost/admin.asp . you are given access to the page and not redirected back to the login page. What could I have missed? It simply checks the session variable....that should never be set to one when all sessions are reset...and the user can still gain access?

Authentication

I am attempting to access WMI data on a remote machine. I have been able to get this to work, but there has got to be a better way, I hope.

set wmiLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
Set WMIServices = GetObject("winmgmts://" & cn & "")
Set objSWbemLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
WMIServices.Security_.ImpersonationLevel = 3

Then in my IIS snapin, Directory Security, and then Edit. I have this set Anon Access with my username and password as well as Windows Integrated Authentication checked. It does the job, I can pull the data, but it poses a security risk. I don't want to have my password and username as the authentication options.

ASP IIS Authentication

Active Directory objects (AdsObject & AdsCommand).

When I use the page from the server itself with "localhost"/page as
servername, it executes fine. But if I call the site with
"servername"/page, the exection fails. AdsObject throws "Table does not
exists" errors.

Currently, the server is configured with Integrated Windows
authentication. I tried changing to Anonymous authentication with
IUSR_machninename user. Again it fails.

Registration Authentication??

I would like to be able to automatically authenticate a registration. Meaning:

A registration occurs
email is sent to registering party
Party clicks a link to authenticates.

or something to that effect.

Does anyone know where I can find something like this?

I would use a forum (i.e. webwiz, phpbb.....) the only problem is they are asking way too many questions for what I need.

I have built a database to hold the party's information, I have built an asp page with form that inputs the info I need into the DB, which all works, but now I would like to be sure that the person registering is a real person and it is a valid email address.

Any Ideas on how to get started?

The theory is to prevent automated login programs.
