Hey all,
I have a question for all you techies. Currently I have set up Active Directory at my work. I just built a vacation time application and am working on the login web page. I want to use active directory for the logins.
So in theory, ill have two text boxes (username and password) which both fields are in the active directory. I was wondering if anyone knew how to link active directory and my site using VBscript. I've tried using Soap and LPAD...but have had no luck and a bunch of errors.
Please help!

| do you need the textboxes? i mean, you can simply turn on the authentication for the website in IIS manager, and it will pop up an authentication window every time. |

Hey,
I do not want to do that since we have many web applications running on that server. Those applications are actually running on a portal, sharepoint. I just want to check if the username matches the password. Granted I am only an intern here, but the previous programmer used SOAP and LDAP in another application. I still can't seem to get it to work though

unless sharepoint and ad are on the same server, using the web inteface to check against the ad would be not a good idea - since ldap usernames and password requests would be sent back and forth in cleartext (unless you've set up an ipsec policy to encrypt traffic between the two)
however, i understand your concerns, since sharepoint works like a bitch on a period with any authentication rather than basic cleartext (especially in the extranet environments).
in any case, if you want to stick to textbox authentication, you can use the forms authentication with vb.net (or c# for that matter): http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;EN-US;326340 |
