Sharing ASPNET security

G

Gerhard

I have a .net 2.0 web site and a .net 4.0 Silverlight Business application
(that uses RIA Services) that I would like to share ASPNET security so I can
go back and forth without having to log in a second time. How can I do this?

This is a second post on this as the first never showed up in search.

Hello Gerhard,
Thank you for posting.
From your post, my understanding on this issue is: you want to use ASP.NET
security in your Silverlight application. If I'm off base, please feel free
to let me know.

If we want to use ASP.NET Authentication in Silverlight applications, we
need to create an ASP.NET Application Service. ASP.NET application services
are built-in Web services that provide access to features such as forms
authentication, roles, and profile properties. An important feature of
ASP.NET application services is that they are available to a variety of
client applications, not just ASP.NET Web applications. ASP.NET application
services are available to any client that is based on the .NET Framework.
In addition, any client application that can send and receive messages in
SOAP format can use ASP.NET application services. For more details about
ASP.NET Application Service, please refer to this document:

ASP.NET Application Services Overview
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb547119.aspx

Here is a demo on MSDN which talked about how to use the ASP.NET
Authentication Service to log in through silverlight applications.

How to: Use the ASP.NET Authentication Service to Log In Through
Silverlight Applications
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd560704(VS.95).aspx

If you want to use Windows Authentication for the Silverlight Applications,
here is the demo.

How to: Use Windows Authentication to Secure a Service for Silverlight
Applications
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd744835(VS.95).aspx

We can authenticate a user or check whether the current user is
authenticated by customing the service logic. By the way, the
authentication logic should always be done on the service side, since
hackers can invoke your service using their own client. Client side
authentication is optional, it can be used to create a better user
experience.

Please let me know the information above so that I can provider further
assistance on this problem. I am looking forward to your reply.

Thanks.

Using it in Silverlight is already working, as it is in the web site. What
I need to be able to do is share the security between the two, so I can call
a Silverlight page (.net 4.0) in the from the Web site (.net 2.0) without
having to login again.

If you can show me how to do this, it would be a great help.

Thanks.

Hello Gerhard,

I think it is easy to handle that. But we need to create a web service to
make a bridge. Let me explain it.

Condition 1:
1, the SilverLight application should be deployed on one page in the
ASP.NET web application. Ensure they can share the same session.
2, user login on the ASP.NET web application first. The Silverlight
application does not need to be authenticated again.
3, need a WCF service, or a common web service to execute some code like
"HttpContext.Current" to get the user information on the current session.
If returns null, it means the user does not be authenticated, or send back
the current user infomation.

Condition 2:
1, the SilverLight application should be deployed on one page in the
ASP.NET web application. Ensure they can share the same session.
2, user login on the Silverlight appliation first. The ASP.NET web
application does not need to be authenticated again.
3, also need a WCF service, or a common web service. We could post the
username and password to the service and make it authenticated there.
