Hi
I followed the MS kb#316748 trying to implement form authentication for my
..NET application, but I got this error when I was just trying to load the
login.aspx, any clue?
TIA

here is the stack trace:

By the way, as advised by the kb doc. I have set "Impersonation=true" in my

TIA

here is my web.config ---

Hello dl,

why do you want to impersonate when using forms auth??

if IIS is set to anonymous and forms auth is enabled - IIRC impersonation
means your app runs under IUSR_MACHINENAME.

does this make sense??

I think you can safely disbale impersonation

for a working example of forms auth check this :

Hi
I think I have missed one step, ie. to change the default IUSER/machine
account to a "least privileged" account and
I have just created a user with "Domain users" as primary group to replace
the default anonymous account.

Now I am getting
HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed
But I did not see the login.aspx and have not yet type in the credentials!
Is this something to do with my "least privileged" account?
TIA

Hi Dominick
I have just changed the anonymous to "least privileged" account. But I
properly didn't set it right, or didn't give the account enough access
right, I am now getting
HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed
when I was trying to load the login.aspx! I have not even typed in the
credentials yet!?

The reason why I would like to use impersonation is to allow domain control
delegation. i.e my application need to be able to add / change / delete
domain objects (mainly user and ou), in doing so I want to delegate ou
administration to the users created via my application. i.e. I am writing
something similar to a web based domain user account / ou provisioning
application.

Hello dl,

why do you want to do it via impersonation?? give your app pool a domain
account identity and delegate the needed AD permissions to that account.
much easier and less error prone.

Hi Dominick
Are you saying that I should give my application a custom account to run as,
and assign the least AD permissions required to this custom account? and
would I need "Account operators" or "Schema Admins" or "Domain Admins" or
some others in order to add / change / delete ou / user objects in a domain
?
TIA

Hello dl,

well- the same privileges you wanted to give to your impersonated account
(plus add it to IIS_WPG).

You can delegate special permissions in AD to non-admin user. Active Directory
and User -> Delegate

For the in-depth info on which specific perms you need - ask Joe Kaplan (on
this list) - he know best!

A couple of quick points:

You absolutely don't need a service account at all to do simple LDAP
authentication. This code is adequate:

DirectoryEntry de = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://yourdomain.com/RootDSE",
user, pwd, AuthenticationTypes.Secure);
try
{
object o = de.NativeObject;
return true;
}
catch (COMException ex)
{
return false;
}
finally
{
de.Dispose();
}

The advantage of impersonating a domain account for the auth is that you can
use serverless binding in your binding string (LDAP://rootdse instead of
LDAP://domain.com/rootdse), but if you provide a domain hint, you don't
really need that.

I don't think it is a good idea to use your highly privileged service
account for creating users as your IIS anonymous user account. I'd suggest
using those credentials only for the operations required. You have the
choice of providing the credentials in the constructor, programmatically
impersonating the user temporarily or moving the privileged code into a COM+
component under a specific account.

Regarding the privileges you need, this depends a great deal on how your AD
security has been designed, but generally speaking, account operators can
create accounts. It is probably a good idea to delegate a special account
to create accounts in just the container(s) you need to for use in this
application if absolutely possible as you really want to be careful.

HTH,

the
