authorization

I am building a web application using ASP.NET MVC that has two very distinct types of users. I'll contrive an example and say that one type is content producers (publishers) and another is content consumers (subscribers). I am not planning on using the built-in ASP.NET authorization stuff, because the separation of my user types is a dichotomy, you're either a publisher or a subscriber, not both. So, the build-in authorization is more complex than I need. Plus I am planning on using MySQL. I was thinking about storing them in the same table with an enum field (technically an int field). Then

I have created a custom role provider for my MVC4 application where I have been successfully able to override CreateRole, GetAllRoles and RoleExists methods and link them to my existing database as follows: namespace Project.Providers { public class MyProvider : System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider { private MyContext dbcontext = new MyContext(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyContext"].ConnectionString); private Repository<MyUser> userRepository; private Repository<Role> roleRepository; public MyProvider() { this.userRepository = new Repository<MyUser>(dbcontext);

Help me please. I make client for android for github.com api v3 and i have a trouble with authorization. (login = mytest12345 , pass = 12345test) http://developer.github.com/v3/ Python authorization sample http://agrimmsreality.blogspot.com/2012/05/sampling-github-api-v3-in-python.html serverurl="https://api.github.com" # Add your username and password here, or prompt for them auth=BasicAuth(user, password) # Use your basic auth to request a token # This is just an example from http://developer.github.com/v3/ authreqdata = { "scopes": [ "public_repo" ], " note": "admin script" } resource =

Is it possible to add the Roles but not hard-coding the values like: [Authorize(Roles="members, admin")] I would like to retrieve these roles from a database or configuration file where I wouldn't need to rebuild the application if I needed to add/remove Roles for a Controller Action. I know with the enums it can be done... http://www.vivienchevallier.com/Articles/create-a-custom-authorizeattribute-that-accepts-parameters-of-type-enum but even this is still not flexible enough for my needs; it's still somewhat of a hard-code, even though it is cleaner. You can create your custom authorization

I have coded a Xamarin Google Apps V2 application. The device I am deploying to has Google Play Services installed. The application has all been setup correctly in the API console and I have had this application working before, months ago. Currently, when the application is deployed to my device, I am getting the following errors in the Application output: [Google Maps Android API] Authorization failure. Please see https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start for how to correctly set up the map. [Google Maps Android API] Ensure that the following correspond to what is in the

I'm implementing a secure WCF service. Authentication is done using username / password or Windows credentials. The service is hosted in a Windows Service process. Now, I'm trying to find out the best way to implement authorization for each service operation. For example, consider the following method: public EntityInfo GetEntityInfo(string entityId); As you may know, in WCF, there is an OperationContext object from which you can retrieve the security credentials passed in by the caller/client. Now, authentication would have already finished by the time the first line in the method is called.

I am looking for a good role based authorization solution to use alongside Authlogic. Anyone have any good suggestions? Please list some pros and cons from your experience if possible please. Acl9 works great with AuthLogic: http://github.com/be9/acl9/tree/master At RailsConf, I saw a lightning talk on Lockdown and was very impressed. Anyone with a modest amount of db and rails experience can roll their own ACL system, but Lockdown looks nice because it tries to keep the permission stuff out of the way. http://lockdown.rubyforge.org/ I had used role_requirement previously but I didn't dig it.
