Booking System and Helpdesk auto login

[J_Worth]

Hello everyone,

 

We have just got the booking system up and running and working quite well. I was just wondering if the following authentication scenario is supported:

 

If so, is it possible for it to be set up like this:

 

https://hap.school.lea.sch.uk/hap/bookingsystem - this uses Windows Authentication and logs the user in automatically

https://hap.school.lea.sch.uk/hap/helpdesk - this uses Windows Authentication and logs the user in automatically

 

but if they were to go to: https://hap.school.lea.sch.uk/hap - it would show the login form and ask for username and password.

 

Thanks.

I know I use HAP in that way for onsite+offsite use, however I *think* that might be because I bounced to asp.net 4.5. However - It's definitely a scenario, I'd like to ensure we support out the box in some way - so it may be a case of it doesn't do it just yet in the official builds

 

(@nick - is this scenario supported with asp.net 4 - IIRC i ended up needing to support multiple authentication via wcf which was a new feature in 4.5, hence my bounce)

I have just managed to get that working. Just what I was looking for!!

 

3 questions:

 

1). If access the site using https://servername/hap it Signs In automatically. However, if I go to: https://hap.school.lea.sch.uk/hap it doesn't. How can I get that working? I don't mind if I have to use https://servername/hap other than it prompts about an invalid certificate.

 

2). When it signs me in automatically this error is displayed: "Invalid length for a Base-64 char array or string.". Any Ideas?

 

3). When accessing https://servername/hap on Chrome, the Forms username and password page is displayed, however, on Internet Explorer it logs in straight away. Is there a setting in Chrome that needs to be changed?

 

Thanks!
