Re: NTLM authentication

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Well, WSE3.0 is just an interim solution, WCF is the way to go and this one supports NTLM
authentication.

okay so I will read more information about WCF

So I am still wondering how I can check a user credential against a
NTLM database without IIS.

NTLM database?
You mean authenticating using NTLM.

actually I don't know how to say it :(
In Winnt, I guess the users are stored in a SAM database, right?
So is there a way to check a user credential against a SAM database??
Or, how can I check a user credential on winnt?

Is there something like a LDAP bind (as I did with ADAM)??

ADAM does not hold Windows identities, so can't be used here.

OK, I don't use ADAM, it was just an example :)
Actually I use ADAM only if the customer who will buy the product do
not have a domain (workgroup) but this is another problem.
In my current configuration, this is a WinNT system, so I do not have
AD nor ADAM.
I have a SAM database and I was wondering If I could bind the SAM to
authenticate a user (like I would do it with ADAM).

SUopose you have this credential : ALICE / ALICE_PWD
How do you do to check if this user (ALICE) really exist in the domain
(in the SAM database) and if the password (ALICE_PWD) is the right
one??
Maybe it's impossible, I don't know.

Thanks again for your time and your answer.
