hello


I want to create a custom  asp membership using a class that inherit MembershipProvider  and make it default membership in CS ,so that everytime the

customer log-in in the CS, it will be validated in my  customer database(my site database). I want it to be bin deployable for some reason? Is it possibe?

thanks

That should be possible.  Can I suggest that you read up on the documents at http://docs.communityserver.com/shared-membership/, in particular the "Shared Membership Overview" for how membership in CS works.

You should then be able to create your own ASP.Net membership provider which CS can use to get it's userbase from.

i just read the shared membership, is there an example on how to implement this, so that CS users will be validated to my customer database(my existing asp.net site) before they can login in CS.

And can it be done in terms of bin deployable? I mean just create a dll and put it inside the CS, so that the validation of the CS will be on my existing site

Any help will be really really really appreciated.

thanks in advance

In that case you probably will want to look as SSO.  You can get the SSO module documentation inside the Security modules download, which you can get from the Get It Now link at the top of this page.

Hi Guru,

I've downloaded the security modules extensions, however I can't seem to make it work for my purpose.

As stated on the readme file, all that is needed is to configure the auth cookie name to be the same as CS and share the same validation/decryption key. Testing the sample formsauthtest.aspx by dropping it on the cs web dir, I was able to create an account immediately upon signin, however, dropping it on my site doesn't generate an authenticated account.

Running the sql profiler, It seems to generate user data on the aspnet_users table immediately if non-existent(if on the cs web).

I can't find a hook on how I can validate the user credetials against my db as there was no mention of any on the readme file.

Looking forward to your guidance :)

Thanks!

The Single Sign on modules MUST be run inside Community Server.

Hi Guru

 

I was looking for a hook to have it call our custom provider(if possible to be specified) to do validation against our db. Other than just authenticating the auth cookie id.

Is there a way?

 

thanks
