I need to rewrite a Sliverlight Application into a ASP.NET MVC 5 application. The User Accounts are stored as a ".NET User" in the IIS:
I think this Database is related to it:
I assume, that there is some technologie build in in ASP.NET, that is for managing this users. Something like NetUser.Authentificate(username, password)
How ever, I can not find some reference. I am sure, I am searching with the wrong keywords.
Can you point me on the right direction?
Based on the database tables, your old application used Membership Provider.
Membership Provider was shipped with ASP.Net 2.0, and more than a decade old already.
You have two solutions -
Migrate old data to new ASP.Net Identity 2 tables. It is a prefer solution, but you need to understand how those tables work. Here is the example. Note: the article is for ASP.Net Identity 1 (but you get the idea).
The second method is a quick and dirty way. You call ASP.Net Membership Provider's methods manually to Authenticate and Authorize user inside ASP.Net MVC 5. You can read those methods here.
For example,
if(Model.IsValid)
{
if(Membership.ValidateUser(model.Username, model.Password))
{
// User is valid
}
}
