web server folder security

My ASP.Net app need write permission for a folder on the
web server. What confuses me is that I can only make it
work if I give it write permission to the server machine's
Users group. It doesn't work if I give the same permission
to the IUSR_<machine name> user. It's been my
understanding all along that it is the IUSR_<machine name>
running the web server process. Now I am lot. Can someone
explain it to me?

Thanks

fengI believe asp.net runs under the ASPNET user by default. Try giving that
user only rights.

It really depends on what you are doing. IUSR_MachineName is the anonymous
account. If you are truly running a process on behest of the anonymous user,
give IUSR_MachineName rights. In traditional ASP, IUSR_MachineName was a bit
more of a king.

In ASP .NET, there are some other accounts created to run behind the scenes
processes. For example, you have an ASPNET machine account. This account is
where much of the code runs (as well as the worker process). Giving this
account access is often more important than IUSR_MachineName.

I won't even mention IWAM_MachineName right now, as it could get a bit too
deep.

NOTE: ASPNET is a User, which is why giving access to Users works.

Web Server Specifications for ASP.NET APP!

HI ALL!!

We are in the process of purchasing a new webserver for an event we are holding and was wondering if any of you guysknow if there is some sort of formula or guideline we should follow tohelp determine the specifications of the server we will require.

Theevent held will server 350 - 400 delegates who will access an internalwebsite with 5GB of documents (thousend odd doc, xls, ppt files) usingtheir laptops and a number of wireless hotspots throughout the eventbuilding. The server will be a Windows Server 2003 based plateform (maybe WebServer Edition) running IIS6.

I've been searching theinternet and microsoft sites but can't seem to find a definate documentthat will tell me how to determine the server spec required based onthe a 350 concurrent user and 5GB of documents assumption ...

Please help... :o|

You can find some suggestions here:

with a gig of RAM. If you have 350 - 400 delegates you are unliekly to get
350 concurrent request, unless they all decide to download docs at the same
time. I would estimate you would have maybe 50 concurrent requests at your
absolute busiest time, if that.

Also, if you're just serving static files (word docs etc) and there isn't
any server side processing such as ASP.NET pages talking to SQL Server or the
like then it probably won't need that much power behind it. I wouldn't begin
to give a full spec on processor power, but as clickon said you probably
wouldn't need much more than a gig of RAM to keep the operating system happy.
I doubt you'll bother IIS that much.

web service

Hi,

I am using web method in my web app by using web reference.

It works fine when in debug mode.

It fails when testing a published version.

error message is: The remote name could not be resolved: 'ws.mysite.net'

Is there any issue when publishing project?

Do I need to do something different while publishing web project that uses web service reference.

Thanks,

Vaibhav

Open the web.config file and change the location of the WebService URL. that should solve the issue.

Hope this helps...

Unfortunately, this didn't help me. Any other input?

Thanks,

Vaibhav

This must be the issue of the proxy server. Please ensure that the server does not require any kind of authentication like telnet. Also add entry in the machine.config for your application under Default proxy tag.

hope this helps

Regards,

Suhas

Hi,

Entry in machine.config solved problem.

I added a sectiongroup in it i.e. same lines copied from web.config to machine.config for web url.

Thanks,

Vaibhav

Web Service - get remote machine/network parameters

I know that writing ASPX app we easily can get all required information
about remote machine and network right from the user's browser using this
request:

NameValueCollection coll = Request.ServerVariables;

But what if we write a Web Service? What can we do in this case? How can we
get the remote machine IP and the HostName for example? Do we have any way
that can be used from the Web Service for that? I know that I probably can
get the same info at the remote machine and send it to the Web Service for
logging, but actually it's always easy, because some of the clients are
working from their LANs and the real IP exposed by their Internet Providers
is hard to be received.

The question - how can we get a reliable information about remote network,
user, machine, etc?

Just D.What if you try:

HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables.ToStri ng();

Does that work?

Kind regards,

I make the web service call back to the calling web application, then
i call the url. The web service is basically setting variables for the
web appliation to use later when its called. Not sure i understand the
request suggestion with this in mind.

could your explain this in details. How u do the call to site from WS and
set variables?
as I understand u are doing screen scraping or u set variables via URL?

Actually what we want to do is use a web service to set the datasource
and report path of an ms report viewer so that it can be called from a
url. We could use ms reporting services but the remote .rdl does not
allow you to decouple the data from the report format like the local
report version does. I did get it to work by calling our report url
and passing in the report name, however this approach has the report
server calling the data server not the client. what we are trying to
acheive is having the client call the data server and pass the data
and the report name to the report server. I don't know how to pass the
data to the report server by an url approach (i don't think its
possible). So I was trying to set them with a web service.
Thanks.

Ok. What u need to do is to provide the method on server, which will return
only data necessary to show the report. Not the report itsefl
After that from you client code you call your server data (via code behind,
or using javascrip and transfering data in JSON format). Doing thing u will
have the real data on your side which u can use to build your report.
For example u can use JS (on client) + WCF (on server) to call wcf methods
directly from javascript.
But u need to have separate method on server which returns u all necessary
data, u can't extract data from the generated and shown report

I don't think we want to use javascript at this point. I'm not sure
when you refer to the 'server' i know what server your talking to. We
have a report server and a data server and the client browser. We want
the client to retrieve the data and pass the report they want to run
and the data to the report server. When you say you can get all the
data for the report, i dont' know what kind of data that is. Sorry
don't need to be dense here.
Thanks for the help.

Thats an interesting idea but i'm not sure my boss would go for that.
we are looking to use the local report viewer from ms reporting
services.

web service authentication with active directory

hi!!
i have a windows app that uses web serivces to access data and i use
integrated windows to authenticate.
is it a way to authenticate with users in active directory ?
and how do i do that ?There is already a sample available in Quickstart guide...

i tried the guide, but it didnt help me.
ive tried to use WSE and the UsernameTokenManager.
This works fine, except that if i dont pass any UsernameToken to the service
the user is acceptet. You know how to make the webservice call the
UsernameTokenManager even if a UsernameToken isnt passed ?

Web Service Compression when ASP.NET is Consuming

Hi all, I'm familiar with web service compression and how to implement
it in a Winforms app. What I'm trying to figure out how to do at this
point is how to consume the service from an ASP.NET page. I've surfed
around quite a bit looking for an answer to this, but most of the stuff
I'm seeing is either talking about consuming from a Winforms app or
enabling web compression for ASPX pages to the user's browser.

Here's our setup: We have two servers. One of them is the ASP.NET
application, which is what the users are accessing. The second server
only hosts the web service that the ASP.NET app is calling. We're
going to have a respectable amount of requests from the ASP.NET
application the web service, so we want to enable web compression
through GZip to minimize bandwidth between them. On the server hosting
the web server we have installed a third-party application which gives
us more advanced support for GZipped compressed requests/responses (the
main reason we went with it is for the reports and monitoring tools it
comes with). We are only interested in enabling compression between
the web server and the web service server, NOT between the web server
and the user's browser.

So at this point, I'm not exactly sure of what to do on the ASP.NET
application's end of things; since it's running through IIS, can I
simply tell it to request the compressed response and expect that it'll
know how to decode the response?

Or do we have to code to tell the ASP.NET application to insert the
GZip header in the request and then make a SoapInputFilter to handle
the response (exactly like a Winforms app)?

Thanks in advance for any help!the webservice call from asp.net is the same as one for winforms (same
code). you will have to do the same work.

Web Service Compression when ASP.NET is Consuming

Hi all, I'm familiar with web service compression and how to implement
it in a Winforms app. What I'm trying to figure out how to do at this
point is how to consume the service from an ASP.NET page. I've surfed
around quite a bit looking for an answer to this, but most of the stuff
I'm seeing is either talking about consuming from a Winforms app or
enabling web compression for ASPX pages to the user's browser.
Here's our setup: We have two servers. One of them is the ASP.NET
application, which is what the users are accessing. The second server
only hosts the web service that the ASP.NET app is calling. We're
going to have a respectable amount of requests from the ASP.NET
application the web service, so we want to enable web compression
through GZip to minimize bandwidth between them. On the server hosting
the web server we have installed a third-party application which gives
us more advanced support for GZipped compressed requests/responses (the
main reason we went with it is for the reports and monitoring tools it
comes with). We are only interested in enabling compression between
the web server and the web service server, NOT between the web server
and the user's browser.
So at this point, I'm not exactly sure of what to do on the ASP.NET
application's end of things; since it's running through IIS, can I
simply tell it to request the compressed response and expect that it'll
know how to decode the response?
Or do we have to code to tell the ASP.NET application to insert the
GZip header in the request and then make a SoapInputFilter to handle
the response (exactly like a Winforms app)?
Thanks in advance for any help!the webservice call from asp.net is the same as one for winforms (same
code). you will have to do the same work.

Web Service created using 2003/2005 then access using PHP

We are having issues using a Web Service created in 2003/2005 when writing a PHP web app.
Is there anything special that needs to be done to allow PHP to use .NET web services?
WokaThe rrr we are getting is "request format is unrecognized"
Woka
You need to find the machine.config file on the web server and edit it and unremark the Post and Get bits.

<Protocols>
<add name="HttpSoap1.2"/>
<add name="HttpSoap"/>
<!--<add name="HttpPost"/>-->
<!--<add name="HttpGet"/>-->
<add name="HttpPostLocalhost" />
<add name="Documentation"/>
</protocols>

Thanks to Mike Hilder for this.

web service reference

I have a web app that is referencing several web services. When I make a change to a web service (add, modify a method), I have to 'Add Web Reference' for the changes to take affect. If I do 'Update web reference' the web app does not see the web service changes.

The web services are on the same box as I'm developing on, the .wsdl files are pointing to the correct location, but the changes aren't happening unless I do 'Add Web Reference'.

Does anyone have or had this same issue? If so how did you resolve it?"Mike" <Mike@.community.nospam.comwrote in message

What are your web references pointing to? The .asmx files, the .wsdl files,
or .asmx?WSDL?

Also, have you built and deployed the changed web services before trying to
update the references?

prior to 'updating' it in the web app.

the reference in the web.config file is pointing to the .asmx file, but
shouldn't it point to the wsdl file?

I just got put on this project last week, so everything was already setup by
the lead developer on this project, and I'm fixing things as I go, and I
noticed that as I was fixing the web service and trying to access it via the
web app.

shouldn't it point to the wsdl file?

The web.config should point to the .asmx, since that is the URL that will be
used at runtime. I was asking what you see in the Properties of the web
reference itself.

Another thing I thought of is how are you running the web service? You want
to make sure that the web reference is referring to the exact same service
that you've deployed.

For instance, one problem I've had is when the web service was running on a
dynamic port through the Visual Studio.Net internal web server, when my web
reference has been pointing to a fixed location within an IIS web site. This
fits the pattern you posted about: when you do an Add Web Reference, you are
pointing to the real, updated server. When you change it and do an update,
the updated service is running in the internal server, but your web
reference is still pointing to the original, unchanged service.

At design-time, the web reference URL is used to retrieve the WSDL file
which is used to create the proxy classes. At run-time, it is used to talk
to the real service. The trick is to notice when these two are not both
talking to the same service.

Web services over FTP

Hi all

I am writing a Pocket PC app (Compact Framework V2) that talks to a web service. However, the machine I am talking to is going to have port 80 closed down, the only port I will have access to is 21 which currently has an FTP server on it. What I'd like to do is to have the PPC application create its web request but then instead of using HTTP to talk to the server I'd like to save that request to a MemoryStream. I could then zip the data and FTP it to a dedicated folder on the server. A service on the server could extract the request and then post it to the web service locally. Finally I would like to take the response, zip it, put it on the FTP in a dedicated folder for the client to download and then feed into the request as if it had come directly from the server.

Can this be done? If so, does anyone have any URLs, examples, or anything? I've not been able to find anything useful on Google so far.

Thanks

Pete

Is this article helpfu to you ?http://www.lyra.org/pipermail/neon/2002-October/001187.html

you need to embed you http requset into a ftp request and then dis-embed it.. i think you can sure make it out, while maybe it will need some effort :)

a little suggestions:

in this article :http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-tiphttp.html it is said that: "It's also important to consider all the other XML technologies that can process XML retrieved over HTTP, FTP, or other means." so, i guess we can found a way to impliment xml communication thru FTP .anyway, hope u good luck!
