Re: ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider - IsInRole problem

right - and i think it is a pretty heavy limitation that there is no AD role provider...

it is on my todo list - but i haven't found time so far...


You have to fetch them manually - joe knows at least 3 ways to do that :)

ps - the use case for this authentication method is all users are in
AD, but some use firefox or opera as their browser.

is the problem on the other thread resolved??

There is no ActiveDirectoryRolesProvider - the roles are not
populated from AD...thats why IsInRole fails.

Hi;

For forms/ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider authentication, I get an
authenticated user but IsInRole fails. I am getting a FormsIdentity
where authentication-"Forms" and name="dave". I do have to enter my
domain password for it to login.

web.config:
<roleManager enabled="true"/>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name=".ADAuthCookie" loginUrl="login.aspx">
</forms>
</authentication>
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
</authorization>
<membership defaultProvider="MyProvider">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="MyProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider,
System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
connectionStringName="ADService"
attributeMapUsername="SAMAccountName"
/>
</providers>
</membership>
