The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How to link Active Directory and SQLMembershipProvider

Asked by askasp in Programming for ASP.NET, Microsoft Visual C#.Net, Active Directory, Web Development, Web Development

Tags: ASP.NET, C#, SQL, Active Directory, LDAP

Hello Experts,

I know there are various posts and blogs all around the internet but couldn't find an aswer to this situation and not sure what the best practive is or how should i go with? This is my scenerio:

There are domain and non-domain users.
Admin will invite users(domain and non-domain) by email. Only invited domain members will be authorized so during the invitation process they will be assigned to either a role or their account will needs to be activated so that this will prevent all domain members to be authorized.

Domain users will be able to access to the site through internet (so not going to be an intranet app)
So basicly the only difference between Domain users and Non-Domain users is that the Domain users will be authenticated through active directory whereas non-domain users will be authenticated through the SQL with their passwords.

So my question is: During the Admin's email invitation process, invited users need to be created and assigned to roled in SQL with a password but how can I handle the domain users because they also needs to be somehow created in SQL but they won't have usernames/passwords since they will be authenticated through Active Directory.

Is this possible? or My approach is totally wrong to use SQLMembershipProvider to store domain user data as well as non-domain?

Thank you
