Can Atlassian Crowd be used as a single sign on service for myBB? If so, how can I setup myBB to import users from crowd?
If anyone knows why I have to keep signing in everytime I change menu screens in myBB admin console can you please tell me how to fix it?
Found the answer. We had to modify one of the files to stop myBB from continuously logging out. Crowd integration was easy to setup by adding myBB as a generic application in the applications tab on Atlassian crowd.

I created my app using a template. After that i managed to connect it with an existing database. Then i tried to add Identity so that i will be able to authorise and authenticate users of the application. I tried to do that following the instructions of "shyamal parikh" in this post Adding ASP.NET MVC5 Identity Authentication to an existing project
My problem is that now i get a 401 error unless i got to solution explorer (in VS) and disable the windows authentication. But when i do that all the users have unrestricted access to the whole application.
I assume that the problem has to do with that solution that i performed but i cant comment directly there.
Can anyone give me a hint as to what i might be doing wrong?
Do you have windows authentication installed on your computer? Maybe adding that might help. Here are the instructions-

Also look at your event viewer, you might have some hints there.
As a security measure, I am trying to remove the admin UI from an Umbraco 7 site without affecting the front end of the site. I have tried deleting both Umbraco and Umbraco_Client folders (I seem to remember this was how you removed a pre Umbraco 7 site) but the front end of the site errors due to various files that are now missing.
In an ideal scenario I would like to update the content from a staging server and import the database back into the live site, but also I would like to avoid solving this with folder permissions.
Can anyone offer me some advice on the best way to remove the admin UI safely?
Are you trying to have a separation of environment between content entry and delivery? Not sure if you've seen it but this discussion on the Umbraco forum has some suggestions (but no ideal solutions in my opinion) for that
http://our.umbraco.org/forum/developers/extending-umbraco/33337-Creating-a-content-editing-and-content-delivery-environment
You could always just do some URL restriction on the server but there's no ideal way as far as I can see

I have never done an openid application before. I did see that MVC 5 has some built in oauth sign ins. I was able to get these to work no problem, as they are already built.
But I am completely unsure how to get the steam openid to work in MVC. Does anyone have some sample code of there MVC Steam OpendID stuff? Or does anyone know a good tutorial for this?
Go to Tools > Library Package Manager > Package Manager Console and type:
Install-Package Owin.Security.Providers
Open your App_Start\Startup.Auth.cs, and add:
using Owin.Security.Providers.Steam;
Then, in the ConfigureAuth method, add:
app.UseSteamAuthentication("your API key");
You can get an API key from http://steamcommunity.com/dev.
A "Steam" button should be added to your login page.
Here is an excellent tutorial on how to integrate openid with ASP.NET MVC, and it do have working code, and instructions. Please have a look and get going.

Hope this helps.
I'm trying to configure the organization authentication in an ASP.NET MVC project in Visual Studio 2013 RC.
After filling the data in the create project dialog, like Microsoft instructed in their tutorials, I'm getting an error which says that the configure failed.
I've tried to do so as well in Visual Studio 2012 using the identity addon.
Maybe it's related to Windows Azure AD?
Here is the error that I'm getting:
Hopes that someone knows how to fix that issue. Thanks for any help and suggestion!
This question is old, but today I found a workaround that I'd like to share.
It seems like we can't use Microsoft Account when we're using WAAD.
So:
Create a WAAD.
Add an administrator
Choose local directory account, not Microsoft Account.
Grant this account Global Administrator permissions.
Open Visual Studio and create a new web based project.
Choose in authentication the "Organization Accounts".
Specify your WAAD URL (e.g. "foo#onmicrosoft.com").
When you're required to insert your user and password, use the local account username and password. for example ("oz#foo.onmicrosoft.com").
This will allow you to pass the error.
Edit:
Microsoft published a post that referred to this problem and show the solution (the one I described above). http://www.cloudidentity.com/blog/2013/12/11/setting-up-an-asp-net-project-with-organizational-authentication-requires-an-organizational-account/
I would check for two things:
The account used to login to Windows Azure while has Global Admin role in AAD
App ID URI specified in the project creation dialog is valid. Valid App ID URI for domain mydomain.onmicrosoft.com has format https://mydomain.onmicrosoft.com/uniqueUri. Note that you can leave this field blank and the tool will automatically pick the correct App ID URI for you.
If these two things don't help, I would encourage you to run DebugView (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896647.aspx) in the background while trying to create a similar project and you can see the actual error message in the trace in DebugView.
In follow up to OzB:
Once you've setup the user in AAD as per OzB's account,
note that you must also then go to "Settings" in Azure and add that account as an administrator of the Azure subscription, otherwise you can't upload the website itself.
I am a newbie using Worldpay and for this customer of mine I have to set it up for an Umbraco web application.
I was following steps mentioned in This Article but stuck in 2nd step.
In Worldpay website I tried to change "Payment Response URL" but all parts were disabled and I am not able to change none of the required values.
Do I have to ask my customer to change (Upgrade maybe!) their account in order to be able to change these itesm?
Ok.
The problem were with WorldPay as they did not provide required permissions!
