We turned on anonymous access to sharepoint and it seems our site navigation is now not being shown.
We can access the pages directly when anonymous, but the full menu's don't appear until AFTEr we login.
I can't seem to find anything in the Navigation setup under Site > Site Settings > Modify Navigation to say 'show option if anonymous'.
Just throughly confused, non of the sharepoint doc's I've found about anonymous access seems to mention navigation changes.
Turns out its an interaction between 'Audience Targeting' and Anonymous access.
The 'Pages' list has audience targeting turned on, but none of the audience target values have been set for the pages.
Once I target a page to 'All Site USers' then it appears to unauthenticated users.
Sigh.

In VS2013 I created a MVC 5 project where I chose Authentication as "Windows Authentication".
Now when I run the application, I get an automatic popup windows to logon to windows.
Here are my questions.
How can I avoid automatic login popup window on launch and have my own login screen.
How can I get list of active directory accounts and groups.
How can I validate if given name is valid account or groups.
How can I get list of roles.
I tried searching online , but unfortunately not successful.
Thank You
For #1...
This is usually primarily a function of the zone security settings in IE. If you add your app's URL to the Local Intranet Zone in IE, you should get the desired behavior.
Specifically, if you look under Custom Level and scroll all the way to the bottom under User Authentication\Logon, you'll see the different settings for each zone.
For the others, I'd suggest perhaps a separate question for each with what you've tried.
What I want to know is how to redirect the user to the login page, when the website loads. Or if this cant be done, how to change the default page of the website.
when looking for an answer on the internet, i found several solutions mentioning 'nodes' in the content tab. But I have a template installed, and below the content folder, is the
'Business Site' folder which came with my template.
Thanks,

If you want a whole Umbraco site to require a login set all the pages to restrict their access in the content of the Admin section. In the content section click right on the pages you want to restrict access to and select Public Access.
Child pages will inherit the public access settings from their parents so to restrict access to the whole site select your top home page. When setting the public access restrictions you will be asked for the login and error pages you want to use, so these will need to have been created before hand.
I've just tested this on my Umbraco 6 site, I don't know about other versions.
Start by looking here.

Are you redirecting them to the umbraco backend? Or is the entire site you want protected?
Another good resource is Umbraco TV specifically the role based protection video.
I have two users who have Full Control permissions to their department sub-site on SharePoint. They also have Full Control to the Pages document library. The Pages doc library has distinct permission from the site itself, but those two users have Full Control on both as mentioned.
When they try to create a New Page it gives them an "Access Denied" error. I can duplicate this problem with my non-admin account as well.
What am I missing to give these users the ability to create new pages on their site?
Assuming that the user has been granted enough rights to create pages at site level in the first place but is still unable to do so even with Full Control, then there is a high possibility that the user DOES NOT have READ access to the Master Pages and page layouts library. Check the library permissions at the root site collection and grant them the specified permission level accordingly.
Hope that helps.
This is a applicable to SP10 and SP13
Thanks

It could also be TaxonomyHiddenList.
You must paste it into your browser - you cannot navigate to it and it is at the site collection level..
http://yoursite/yoursitecollection/Lists/TaxonomyHiddenList
List Menu -> List Settings -> Permissions for this list -> Grant Permissions
Maybe it is possibly to do with the Web Feature called "Content Organiser" which is enabled and not used. If it is activated, de-activate it and test again. This feature will affect document libraries, not lists.
I have a Sharepoint 2007 site which has a frontpage and then various sub-sites. One of our usergroups only have access to one of these subsites and not the frontpage. However, due to the way they access the site, they will always land on the frontpage, which currently presents them with the default "access denied" page.
Is there some way to redirect these users to their subsite before they get presented with the access denied page?
All solutions are welcome, and solutions that include programming and feature/solution deployment is not an issue. The solutions is only for this single usergroup, so hardcoding (even if it is ugly) the user group and destination URL is an acceptable solution.
EDIT: I heard a custom accessdenied.aspx page as a suggestion, but it seems to be a rather cumbersome alteration for a simple feature.
One dirty solution is to replace AccessDenied.aspx page, in Layouts folder, and add your own logic. You can check the current user and see if he has permission to "Sub site" then redirect him.
This is not a recommended solution as Service Packs to SharePoint can replace AccessDenied.aspx file.
I have a site at http://moss/sites/Electronics/Laptop
I have given users contribute permission on laptop site but still when they try to edit the page they are getting access denied, I have checked the permission level and all permissions are fine bt still users are not able to edit page.
I gave them read permissions on Electronics site and now they are able to edit the pages. My question is why we need to give them read permission on the top level site? What we don't want users to go to the top level site at all and want them to have an access on subsite only? Any idea?
Thanks,
Does the user have any access to the child site before you granted access on the parent? If not, this is likely because you're using some reference to list data from the parent in the child. If the user has no access to the parent and the child is trying to access that data, it will fail and the user will get access denied regardless of their permissions on child.
If they had access but just couldn't edit, this could be a completely different problem but it isn't typical out-of-box behavior. I would still be suspicious that something from parent is being used in child to cause this contention.
I've just discovered this in my 2010 installation. User has rights on a library, but Limited Access at the site level. Granting them Contribute at the site level resolved the issue, but this causes a long list of other issues relating to security. That's an end-user\training issue I need to work on.
Just my $.02
