Hi Axel,

there is an package for Active Directory integration in V7:

https://our.umbraco.org/projects/developer-tools/active-directory-providers ;

Maybe this can handle it for you.

Best,

Hi Axel, 

A while back i did a package for this for Umbraco 4/6 - I haven't done one for v7 but the principles should be the same. 

https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/umbraco-active-directory-authentication

what you do is make IIS authenticate the users, and then get umbraco to dynamically create the member when they first hit the site. then you can do some AD role provider trickery to get the windows domain groups into Umbraco. 

You don't actually need to change the membership provider - but you need a role provider to get the groups

Assuming you are doing and intranet that is in the "Local Network" for browsers

1. Make the website using NTLM in IIS - Windows Authentication in IIS7/8 - you might need to install it
2. Use umbraco "Public Access" to restrict your site - and create a login page
3. on the login page, run a bit of code that grabs the username from the server (it's a Server Veriable) <-- this page actually logs the user on, then redirects them back to the site, they don't see it - so you get logon without the prompt
4. with the username, create the member inside umbraco  this will give you an umbraco user.
5. with a custom role provider you can get the groups for the user as if they are umbraco groups.
6. Now you can tie down umbraco using windows groups not it's own

I have something working to login members using Active Directory. I'm just in need of an auto login script... I have found a few scripts, but I have no clue where to place them

After digging in I got AD users pass the login screen. First: follow the instructions on this link to set up user login using AD.< Second: build a Global.asax.cs file and make use that Global.asax inherit from it, in the Global.asax file

<%@ Application Inherits="UmbracoDev8.Global" Language="C#" CodeBehind="Global.asax.cs" %>

Third: Copy the following code to the new Global.asax.cs file

public class Global : UmbracoApplication
{
    public override void Init()
    {
        var application = this as HttpApplication;
        application.PostRequestHandlerExecute += OnPreRequestHandlerExecute;
        base.Init();
    }
    private void OnPreRequestHandlerExecute(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var session = ((UmbracoApplication)sender).Context.Session;
        if(session != null && session.IsNewSession && UmbracoContext.Current.Security.CurrentUser == null)
        {
            var windowsFullUserName = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name;
            var windowsUserName = windowsFullUserName.Remove(0, windowsFullUserName.LastIndexOf('\\')+1);
            var umbracoUser = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.UserService.GetByUsername(windowsUserName);
            var httpContextBase = new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current);
            var ws = new WebSecurity(httpContextBase, ApplicationContext.Current);
            var seeionTimeOut = ws.PerformLogin(umbracoUser.Id);
        }
    }

This will redirect the currently login user to the back office as soon as they hit "~/umbraco" path.

is working on a reply...
