strange security errors with protocol transition

[Iain Mcleod]

Hi

I'm using protocol transition to create user accounts in an ASP.NET context.
The login seems to be working ok, but I'm getting a nasty security exception
"Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation" (see stacktrace).
I get the same error message in the debugger when I quick watch
httpcontext.current.user.identity, AuthenticationType property (it's a
WindowsIdentity with name=CONTOSO\Administrator and IsAuthenticated=True).


----------------------------------------------------------
Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.
at System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.get_AuthenticationType()
at System.Web.HttpRequest.CalcDynamicServerVariable(DynamicServerVariable
var)
at System.Web.HttpServerVarsCollectionEntry.GetValue(HttpRequest request)
at System.Web.HttpServerVarsCollection.GetServerVar(Object e)
at System.Web.HttpServerVarsCollection.Get(Int32 index)
at System.Web.HttpServerVarsCollection.GetValues(Int32 index)
at
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection.Add(NameValueCollection c)
at System.Web.HttpRequest.FillInParamsCollection()
at System.Web.HttpRequest.GetParams()
at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_Params()
----------------------------------------------------------------

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks
Iain Mcleod

Check that your have permission to login! I would ask this on the ASP.NET
group!

Thanks James. I'll repost to the ASP.NET group.
If a solution comes up I'll update this thread with the answer.

Cheers
Iain
