Hi Paul, Thanks for the explanation,, well detailed video,, I have a doubt ,, in the classic mode pipeline, there is the stage called Authentication,, while accessing static file none of the user password prompt came up ,, why it is so,,?
Thanks for such a nice explanation. I have two doubts from your video of Part2 . 1. When you switched site to classic mode then how you were able to authenticate using form authentication? 2. Also, how IISremembered you being on images pages when you login again even after the IIS got recycled on switching to classic mode,
The difference between classic mode and integrated mode is that in classic mode IIS is not notified for requests for static files and the like. Hence it is harder, not impossible, to make forms auth work for static content.
Hello Manu, To my knowledge, there is no book I know of that exposes this. The slides here have been compiled from my inside knowledge of IIS. If you wish, I can email you the presentation slides.
Thanks Paul for such a excellent explanation about iis7...I have a doubt when you switch to integrated mode and requested for PDF file....its is asking form authentication is because that you have enabled form authentication handler for that app pool...am I correct...so any content request belongs to that particular app pool will request for form authentication
Hello Jee. Thanks for your feedback. In the demo there are two things we need to do to get forms based auth to work for the PDF file: the first is to make sure that we are running in integrated mode pipeline, so that all modules in the IIS pipeline can activate for all requests. The second, is to configure the Forms Auth module (in the modules section), to activate for all types of requests, event those targeting static content such as the PDF file. By default, the module is only going to activate for requests targeting a managed handler.
deserves views even today
