Forms Authentication does not work. Auth cookies are not sent to server when SMF attempts to get access to *.ism/Manifest files on a server that requires specific user roles.
What i do: 1. Create new Silverlight Smooth Streaming template with supporting RIA WCF. 2. Configure web.config :
<connectionStrings>
<add name="ApplicationServices" connectionString="Data Source=[SERVER];Initial Catalog=[CATALOG];User ID=[USER];Pwd=[PASSWORD];" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<system.web>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Account/LogOn" timeout="2880" />
</authentication>
<membership>
<providers>
<clear />
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="ApplicationServices" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="false" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" minRequiredPasswordLength="6" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" passwordAttemptWindow="10" applicationName="/" />
</providers>
</membership>
<profile>
<providers>
<clear />
<add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" connectionStringName="ApplicationServices" applicationName="/" />
</providers>
<properties>
<add name="Gender" />
<add name="Birthday" />
<add name="AvatarPath" />
</properties>
</profile>
<roleManager enabled="true">
<providers>
<clear />
<add connectionStringName="ApplicationServices" applicationName="/" name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider" />
<add applicationName="/" name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.WindowsTokenRoleProvider" />
</providers>
</roleManager>
- Add Authentification Service and correct User class (add 3 props).
- On client side add this to app.xaml.cs:
public App()
{
//Default things...
InitializeWebContext();
}
private void InitializeWebContext()
{
WebContext webContext = new WebContext();
var fa = new FormsAuthentication();
var ac = new AuthenticationDomainService1();
fa.DomainContext = ac;
fa.Login(new LoginParameters("user", "password"), (y) =>
{
if (!y.HasError)
{
this.RootVisual = new MainPage();
}
}, null);
webContext.Authentication = fa;
ApplicationLifetimeObjects.Add(webContext);
Resources.Add("WebContext", WebContext.Current);
}
Access is restricted by web.config file in target directory:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow roles="Role_name" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>
User exists in this role.
When I use the default video that's specified in Xaml (Big Bunny) - everything is fine. But when I change mediasource to a path to s restricted zone on my server I get an access error. On the client side, I get user credentials succesfully.
Fiddler shows next thing: When I try access to another resctricted methods ([RequiresAuthentication]) on RIA WCF, client send Auth cookies, but when SMFPlayer try access to media source, that cookie wasn`t sent.
What have I missed?
