Customize Authentication
Hello,
I was surfing the Rights Management ES Help and found a very interesting sample PDF. You can find the Sample file here:
I want exact the same features to be applied in one of my projects but the help is not up-to the .NET Development level and hence, asking the questions. To understand my question in better manner, kindly have a look at the file and you will see this dialog box same as in here:
- How can I change the text and description on the pop-up authentication window?
- I have tried Encryption Service and able to apply password protection on the PDF but how can I achieve Username and Password both as in the attached sample?
- On submission, how can I validate the user with my own custom Web Service and apply the policy based on the return value?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
JD
Hello Steve,
Appreciate your quick response.
1. Thank you so much for your reply. I have changed the Welcome Text, Username label and Password label by visiting Display Option under the Rights Management Server Configuration.
2. I have used Encryption Service & Rrights Management Service in order to apply the password on a PDF file. At first, I have used the following code to apply the policy which does not include the Authentication:
Dim rmclient As New RightsManagementService.RightsManagementServiceService
rmclient.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("MyUsername", "MyPassword")
Dim inDoc As New RightsManagementService.BLOB()
Dim fs As New FileStream(Server.MapPath("Docs1115.pdf"), FileMode.Open)
Dim len As Integer = fs.Length()
Dim byteArray As Byte() = New Byte(len) {}
fs.Read(byteArray, 0, len)
inDoc.binaryData = byteArray
Dim findPolicy As RightsManagementService.PolicySpec = rmclient.getPolicy("DevelopmentPolicySet", "DevelopmentPolicy")
Dim outBytes As Byte() = rmclient.applyPolicyByPolicyId(inDoc, "Docs1115.pdf", findPolicy.policyId, Nothing, Nothing).binaryData
Dim fsOut As New FileStream(Server.MapPath("PPDF1_Docs1115.pdf"), FileMode.OpenOrCreate)
Dim objBinary As New BinaryWriter(fsOut)
objBinary.Write(outBytes)
fs.Close()
fsOut.Close()
I could not able to do that and hence, has to use the above code for Encryption Service in order to achieve that and here is code for that:
Dim eClient As New EncryptionService.EncryptionServiceService
eClient.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("MyUsername", "MyPassword")
Dim inDoc As New EncryptionService.BLOB()
Dim fsIn As New FileStream(Server.MapPath("Docs2132.pdf"), FileMode.Open)
Dim len As Integer = fsIn.Length()
Dim byteArray As Byte() = New Byte(len) {}
Dim outBytes As Byte() = New Byte() {}
fsIn.Read(byteArray, 0, len)
inDoc.binaryData = byteArray
Dim passSpec As New EncryptionService.PasswordEncryptionOptionSpec()
passSpec.encryptOption = EncryptionService.PasswordEncryptionOption.ALL
passSpec.compatability = EncryptionService.PasswordEncryptionCompatability.ACRO_7
passSpec.documentOpenPassword = "documentOpen"
passSpec.permissionPassword = "permission"
Dim outDoc As EncryptionService.BLOB = eClient.encryptPDFUsingPassword(inDoc, passSpec)
Response.Redirect(outDoc.remoteURL)
For some reason, I cannot get any Binary Data for outDoc BLOB variable! Hence, I have to redirect the page to the remoteURL and I am getting following screen for authentication which has randomly created filename! :
To avoid this random one and to achieve the real athentication dialog box, I had this question.
How can I apply authentication with the help of Rights Management Web Service?
3. I want to validate the user against my database and do not want to have 100,000+ users in Rights Management Server. I have a custom Web Service to do so and wanted to know how can I do that on submission?
