IUSR when deploying to IIS 7.5 about mvc5-mixedauth HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi,

You got into an infinite loop due to disabling anonymous authentication, making the query string ever expanding! which caused the 404.15 error.

Both anonymous/windows authentication modes should be enabled, as the name implies (mixed).

Sorry! but I wasn't able re-produce your issue, if you can provide more details on the environment, configuration or code changes you have made!

Hi,

When enabling both authentication, the infinite loop disapears.

But when I publish my solution on IIS Server, I'm not able to get my 'Domain\Username'. I only get 'IUSR' (which is the IIS user)
My configuration is 'DefaultAppPool', with Integrated pipeline.

IUSR is the default anonymous user account, the only case I found where LogonUserIdentity contained IUSR was when the user has already been forms authenticated. I'm still unable to re-produce your issue.

Ok, I think I've made some modification to your code that break the MixedAuth...
My need is to automatically login a Windows user if an application setting is set in the web.config.

I change the Login method in the AccountController :
[AllowAnonymous]
public async Task Login(string returnUrl)
{
if (bool.Parse(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["WindowsAuthentication"]))
{
await WindowsLogin(null, returnUrl);
}

        ViewBag.ReturnUrl = returnUrl;

        return View();
    }

Is it OK ?

from mvc5-mixedauth.

No, its not OK. The WindowsLogin action should be called only after the right identity exists inside Request.LogonUserIdentity, See the request processing logic inside WindowsLoginHandler.

Thank you, I'll look at your WindowsLoginHandler implementation.
So how can I identify automatically my Windows user without required them to click on the Windows Login button ?

from mvc5-mixedauth.

You can configure the solution to start by auto windows login, as described here #6 also Its found under WindowsFirst branch.

Ok, it seems to work now without my modifications and with Windows first :)
Thank you four your reactiveness
