windows-authentication

It's easy to log into a Windows network share (SMB) for the whole user session (e.g. net use , WNetAddConnection2() etc). Is there any similar way that will only impact my current process? Some kind of token system, maybe? Whole session auth is okay if there's really no alternative, but I would rather avoid a "global solution to a local problem". Network sessions are handled by the windows kernel as part of the smb client driver, as such they are managed per windows workstation (not the user actually), meaning that you can't access the same share with two different credentials, and you can't

I want to check the login name of a user using windows authentication. I have this as a constructor of my controller: public class HomeController : BaseController { public string UserIdentityName; public HomeController() { UserIdentityName = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;// HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name; } } But UserIdentityName returns empty string... I also have this at my web.config: <authentication mode="Windows" /> any idea? Don't try to access any HttpContext related stuff in your controller's constructor. The earliest stage where you should be accessing it

We have windows authentication set up on our staging server for our clients to help prevent google from indexing our staging URLs. We recently found out that one of our sites is seemingly ignoring our IIS settings (anonymous authentication is disabled, windows authentication is enabled). We ended up figuring out that removing the setting runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true" on the modules node (which is required for our URL rewriting on the site) fixes the issue and the windows login/password box appears as expected when we browse to the site. If we keep the setting there, the site allows

My project invoves a user connecting from client to web service, and then web service to SQL Server. The web services and SQL Server are on separate machines. Because of security requirements, we cannot used mixed mode in SQL Server, only Windows authentication. We are experiencing the "double-hop" issue between web service and SQL Server. We are using NTLM authentication and do not want to configure Kerberos because of the overhead and learning curve. We also don't want to have the web service and SQL Server on the same machine. From what I understand, all of our requirements make this

I have an ASP.NET MVC 4 app (.NET 4.5) and SIgnalR works fine with forms-based authentication (hosted via IIS/IIS Express) As soon as I change the app to windows-integrated authentication ( <authentication mode="Windows"/> in "web.config") it stops working. jquery.signalR-2.2.2.min.js:9 WebSocket connection to ws://localhost:51030/signalr/connect?transport=webSockets&blhablahblah failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 403 After adding the [Authorize] attribute to my hub, the error changes to WebSocket connection to ws://localhost:51030/signalr/connect?transport

I tried login to firefox authentication window by following code : WinWaitActive("Authentication Required","","120") If WinExists("Authentication Required") Then Send("username{TAB}") Send("password{Enter}") EndIf But the same dint worked for chrome even though it has the same title as firefox. Any idea? @Milos @Samoth thanks for spending to solve my query. Using Autoit windows info tool, i could not identify the windows tile in chrome thats not a case in FF or IE. Instead of that "Autentication Required" identified as visible text. So modifying the code to WinWaitActive("","Authentication
