aspx thread: Authentication is not working


Message #1 by "Premchand P.L" <premchandpl@p...> on Thu, 20 Feb 2003 09:48:26 +0530
Hi List,

	I am having a problem in authenticating the User

	In the web.confing file, I am having the code like this

	<authentication mode="Forms">
		<forms name="frmLogin" path="/"
loginUrl="secure/Login.aspx"></forms>
	</authentication>

	When i browse the default "homepage.aspx", it has to redirect me to
"secure/Login.aspx". But it is not redirecting me
	to the Login Page. It is showing the contents of "homepage.aspx".

	What might be the Problem. 

Regards
Premchand

prem you also need to specify the authorization tags in the web.config file.
where you need to specify the which users you want to allow and whom to
deny.

hope that helps

put your restricted path/file configuration after <system.web>....</system.web>

for example (this is will deny an anonymous user to see your homepage.aspx)

<system.web>
...
...
</system.web>
<location path="homepage.aspx">
         <system.web>
                 <authorization>
                         <deny users="?"/>
                 </authorization>
         </system.web>
</location>

I think wht u said is for authorization
for authentication u hv to add credential tag...with attribute password type
like clear,mda5,sha1 or something like that.
and then username, password pairs as its child

Hi Premchand,

Have you set the Authorization tag in web.config

		<authorization>
			<deny users="?" />
		</authorization>
Here you explicitly say that deny all users who have not yet authenticated
to the secure/Login.aspx form for authentication.

By default the setting is <allow users="*" />

Hope this helps.

Pratap Ladhani
