I have an authentication question: I'm using Windows® authentication for a Web site in one environment, and Passport authentication in another. If I check the following value to get the authentication type in Windows sometimes an empty string is returned and sometimes "NTLM" is returned. Shouldn't it always return "NTLM"?...

The basic story is that I had some code that went off to a timestamp server using HttpWebRequest and worked fine in .NET 2.0. Then I had to use it with .NET 3.0 and got the error:
(407) Proxy Authentication Required.
Now, I already had all the code to add a proxy to the request and the very same code worked in .NET 2.0 so it was a but of a mystery. At the time of writing WPF is still pretty new and so there is not a lot of documentation. Hence a week of wasted time began and once I...

Our department has recently begun moving all of our Client/Server Applications over to Windows NT authentication via Active Directory. Our previous applications used a SQL Server login for each user. This can become very tedious when it come to setting up users across the company for wide spread applications. There are also inherent security risks involved without the user being authenticated. I thought I would share the following code dealing with security in .NET in hopes that it will help som...

Ok, after reading those articles we know how to limit access to a specific location on our website, but what about a more finegrained control. I mean, maybe some people should get to see some extra items in the menu or something, while other shouldn't. Assuming you have a database with some kind of usertype column (superadmin/admin/readonly for example) the problem now is - all we know now is that all people accessing our protected area are indeed validated against our database - but we can't...

Recently I needed to secure a C# client that talked to a Java server using XML web services over HTTP. The basic requirement was that the server must authenticate the client using a secure protocol. That is, simply sending a user name, or a user name plus a cleartext password would not do. The client runs on Windows, and the server runs on Linux. Both the client and the server live in the same corporate intranet....
