Windows Client for my portal.
-
Dear All, I have a web portal running on my intranet. Now i want to design a windows client in which when user logs in for a particular machine for a day, then if he hits the web portal link then it must not ask to log in with its username and password again. Please suggest and give your views. ashish sharma

Yes I do. I thought that i need a windows solution(or any idea) so its better to put this question in windows forum as well.

Yes, I can. But my portal uses the employeeID as login id with its custom password. but for this i need to make a way out to map employeeID with domain user. But i never used windows authentication. Is there any other way of get around ?

What I am suggesting is that you totally get rid of form based authentication. You should just have windows authentication. This will eliminate all the need to maintain uses in database. If you are managing roles and rights in database you can either move that to active directory where each role will be transformed to an AD group and based on group you set rights in code. If this is not feasible, keep authentication windows based but have authorization done in code through database tables. Here[^] is a blog that shows how to implement windows authentication with database based authorization.

A website can always store a cookie on users device and then exchange it to see if he logged in today. If his last visit was from within 24 hours, then show him the content. Otherwise, redirect him to the authentication page.
