All, If i set the Thread.CurrentPrincipal am i setting the Principal or on AppDomain? Could someone explain how these calls are different? If i want to store and hand over user information from the http request to the webservice implementation. Where is the best place to put it? should i store it on Thread.CurrentPrincipal, AppDomain.SetThreadPrincipal or ClientContext.SetData.

Hello, I noticed an interesting problem. When calling WindowsPrincipal.IsInRole over dial-up (VPN), this function takes 1-2 minute(s) to return. On the intranet or when disconnected from the network, it is instantaneous. Even more interesting is that IsInRole checks for a local group (e.g. Administrators), not a domain group, so I am not sure why it would make such a difference. Either version of IsInRole (with a string parameter and an...

This is more of a solution that raised a question. I have a Web service that does not allow anonymous users. For debugging I put in the following lines in my Web Service: WindowsIdentity wi = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent(); WindowsPrincipal wp = Thread.CurrentPrincipal as WindowsPrincipal; wi = wp.Identity as WindowsIdentity;

I am writing a webService that is going to be accessed anonymously (I don't want to "configurable" depend on windows integrated authentication). But I still want to authenticate the client (or rather the user using the client). Because of this I want to send the WindowsPrincipal from the client to the webService in the SoapHeader. I don't want to send the credentials (userName, password and domain) because I want the client to be unaware...

Hi, I'm trying to get my application to authenticate using role based when the user runs the application. When the user logs on and is in the security group "school", the user gets into the application no problem. But when the user is removed from the group but doesnt log back in, he still has permissions to run the application. This is also true if the user is already logged on and then placed in the security group, the user cannot...

I use the following function to ascertain if the current user is in ann AD security group. It appears to work, except if the group contains any space characters, it always returns false. For example I am a member of groups "NWDeveloper" and "IT Development" if I call the function CurrentUserInRole(@"DOMAIN\NWDeveloper"); it returns true, however CurrentUserInRole(@"DOMAIN\IT Development"); it returns false. I need to be able to...

Hi, I currently have my application setup and built using Windows Authentication (WindowsPrincipal). For security checks, I simply do an IsInRole call on the Principal. The role permissions are hard- coded, something like this: private static string allowedReadRoles = new string { "Sales", "Ordering" };

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
