Openiddict refresh/access token not working on multiple servers - asp.net

We have used asp.net identity for authentication and integrated openiddict in it. in our case when our app is running on a single server it works fine but when it is running on load balance (multiple servers) in some cases (i.e,) Access token was issued by server 1, and that access token is not accepted by server 2 it throws 401 error.
We have enabled reference tokens pls check here
After adding
services.AddDataProtection().PersistKeysToDbContext()
asp.net identity works fine in multiple servers but, there is still an issue in openiddict
API call error message & token error message => This error occurs when server 1 token is used in server 2
Thanks in advance

Enable Azure AD SSO on Web Server which has no internet connection

I implement my ASP.Net Web Application SSO with Azure AD. Everything work fine my testing server which has an internet connection.
My customer policy does not allow internet connection on their server and the SSO failed when validate the token from the Microsoft after user authenticated. The error is "IDX20803: Unable to obtain configuration from: [PII is Hidden]".
I add the Microsoft.IdentityModel.Logging.IdentityModelEventSource.ShowPII = true; to my Startup.cs class, the error more detail: "IDX20803: Unable to obtain configuration from: 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/MYTENANTID/.well-known/openid-configuration'".
My question is: I will request my customer open their firewall to allow only login.mirosoftonline.com. Does it enough? Does it need to allow another requests? And what are another requests?
according to microsoft, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-ca/office365/enterprise/urls-and-ip-address-ranges#microsoft-365-common-and-office-online
I believe category 56 is for identity and authentication, whether you need them all, I'm not sure, but Microsoft seems to think so?

Cannot connect to a localhost SQL server database in UWP

I have created a UWP application for testing purposes in which my purpose is to be able the application to connect to a ASP.NET Web API with a certificate for Indivual User Accounts, I've hosted the db into localhost, after ensuring the connection its correct and everything its ok I have deployed my UWP app, the problem is that when I execute a call to a method inside the Account controller (api/Account), the compiler throws me an exception which is the following:
System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException
Message=An error occurred while sending the request.
Source=System.Net.Http
...
Inner Exception 1:
COMException: The text associated with this error code could not be found.
The certificate authority is invalid or incorrect
I have searched for the problem but there's not a "specific" or "correct" answer I've found, could anyone help me with this issue please?
if code snippets are required, let me know!

Exception using Azure Managed Service Identity across tenants

I'm building an Azure web app for a client that will be provisioned into many other directories for their customers. This app will call a web API in my client's directory, which will then call back to another web API in the customer's directory. Something like this:
Other Customer AAD1 --------- My client AAD2
App --------------------------------> Web API 2
Web API 1 <-------------------------- Web API 2
We have been able to get the first call to work. This requires a corresponding App Registation for Web API 2 in AAD1. We figure that we could get the callback to work by following the same pattern, with a registration for Web API1 in AAD2. However, that might be a LOT of these 'proxy' registration in my client's AAD, so we're looking at alternatives.
We are exploring using Managed Service Identity, which we think will allow us to get tokens that are valid for resources in other tenants. If there's a better way, I'm certainly interested in knowing about it.
I've followed the code example from here using the Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication library: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/app-service-managed-service-identity#obtaining-tokens-for-azure-resources
// In Web API 2
using Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication;
// ...
var azureServiceTokenProvider = new AzureServiceTokenProvider();
string accessToken = await azureServiceTokenProvider.GetAccessTokenAsync(
"https://<App ID URI for Web API1>");
Web API2 is configured to have a Managed Service Identity.
I'm currently running this on my local machine, and I've installed Azure CLI and I'm logged in. I've tried 'az account get-access-token', and I get a valid token.
When Web API2 tries to get the token to be able to call Web API1, I get an exception:
Parameters: Connectionstring: [No connection string specified], Resource: , Authority: . Exception Message: Tried the following 2 methods to get an access token, but none of them worked.
Parameters: Connectionstring: [No connection string specified], Resource: , Authority: . Exception Message: Tried to get token using Managed Service Identity. Unable to connect to the Managed Service Identity (MSI) endpoint. Please check that you are running on an Azure resource that has MSI setup.
Parameters: Connectionstring: [No connection string specified], Resource: , Authority: . Exception Message: Tried to get token using Azure CLI. Access token could not be acquired. ERROR: Get Token request returned http error: 400 and server response: {"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"AADSTS65001: The user or administrator has not consented to use the application with ID '04b07795-8ddb-461a-bbee-02f9e1bf7b46' named 'Web API 1'.

What's interesting is that there's no application with ID '04b07795-8ddb-461a-bbee-02f9e1bf7b46' in either AAD1 or AAD2. Is this a known Azure app? I thought that it might be the Service Management API, but I'm not sure.
In any case, I'm not sure of the proper way to grant permission. I've tried building different content URLs like this into my browser, but none of them seem to have done the trick:
https://login.microsoftonline.com/(AAD1 ID)/adminconsent
?client_id=(App ID)
&redirect_uri=https://localhost:44341
&resource=(App ID URI for Web API1)
&prompt=admin_consent
https://login.microsoftonline.com/(AAD1 ID)/adminconsent
?client_id=04b07795-8ddb-461a-bbee-02f9e1bf7b46
&redirect_uri=https://localhost:44341
&resource=(App ID URI for Web API1)
&prompt=admin_consent
(This last one tells me that the reply URL is incorrect; since it's not one of my apps, I can't find the reply URL)
Note that the tenant is AAD1.
Am I missing something, or am I not using this feature correctly?
Thanks in advance.
AzureServiceTokenProvider uses Azure CLI (among other options) for local development. For a scenario where a service calls an Azure Service, this works using the developer identity from Azure CLI, since Azure services allow access to both users and applications.
For a scenario where a service calls another custom service (like your scenario), you need to use a service principal for local development. For this, you have two options:
Login to Azure CLI using a service principal.
First, create a service principal for local development
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/create-an-azure-service-principal-azure-cli?view=azure-cli-latest
Then login to Azure CLI using it.
az login --service-principal -u 25922285-eab9-4262-ba61-8083533a929b --password <<pwd>> --tenant 72f988bf-86f1-41af-91ab-2d7cd011db47 --allow-no-subscriptions
Use the --allow-no-subscriptions argument since this service principal may not have access to any subscription.
Now, AzureServiceTokenProvider will get a token using this service principal for local development.
Specify service principal details in an environment variable. AzureServiceTokenProvider will use the specified service principal for local development. Please see the section Running the application using a service principal in local development environment in this sample on how to do that. https://github.com/Azure-Samples/app-service-msi-keyvault-dotnet
Note: Ths is only for local development. AzureServiceTokenProvider will use MSI when deployed to App Service.

The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required in windows server 2003

One of the .net solution which is built on framework 4, we are using this solution to generate some security token based on DefaultNetworkCredentials, i have registered this dll in register(regasm /codebase) and consuming this from classic asp application and its working fine in my local machine.
But when do same step in windows server 2003 and trying to access from IIS(classic asp is hosted in IIS) it is failing to take DefaultNetworkCredentials
and i am getting below error,
"The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required".
code in .net solution to get DefaultNetworkCredentials,
var proxyObject = new WebProxy("Proxy", 80)
{
Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials
};
Can anyone helpme on this, is this something settings in server or IIS?

The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized. Using CSOM in ASP.NET

I'm tried to pull some SharePoint 2013 list data I created which works fine when running locally on my machine and when run locally one the server. I'm user the same credentials when running both locally and locally on the server. The issue is when I publish and navigate to my ASP.NET app on the server I get the "The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized." Error...
I've looked at a bunch of the posts on stackoverflow and some other articles on the web
This points out that the context seems to be using IUSR:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sridhara/archive/2014/02/06/sharepoint-2013-csom-call-from-web-part-fails-with-401-for-all-users.aspx
This one mentions to try setting the default network credentials:
https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/10364/http-401-unauthorized-using-the-managed-client-object-model
I've tried using the fixes mentioned in the article as well as trying to force the context to use DefaultNetworkCredentials but no luck. I would like for the app to use the credentials of the logged in user and not the machine...
Here is the code I'm using:
SP.ClientContext context = new SP.ClientContext("MySPDevInstance");
context.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
Entity entity = context.Web.GetEntity(collectionNamespace, collectionName);
LobSystem lobSystem = entity.GetLobSystem();
LobSystemInstanceCollection lobSystemInstanceCollection = lobSystem.GetLobSystemInstances();
context.Load(lobSystemInstanceCollection);
context.ExecuteQuery();
LobSystemInstance lobSystemInstance = lobSystemInstanceCollection[0];
FilterCollection filterCollection = entity.GetFilters(filter);
filterCollection.SetFilterValue("LimitFilter", 0, 1000);
EntityInstanceCollection items = entity.FindFiltered(filterCollection, filter, lobSystemInstance);
The server is running IIS 6.0
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Thank you
I presume your ASP.NET web site is using Windows Integrated (NTLM) authentication. A user authenticated this way cannot authenticate to a second location from the server side (the web server.) You are experiencing what is known as the "double-hop" (1) limitation of NTLM. You must use a dedicated account on the server side, or if you really do want to use the logged-in user's identity, you must use an authentication scheme that permits delegation, such as Kerberos.
If you really need the user's identity to access SharePoint data and you cannot change the authentication scheme, then the best way to do this is to use the JavaScript CSOM. This means the user is authenticating directly to the SharePoint server (a single hop, not double) and your ASP.NET site serves the page containing this script to the user.

Use Default Credentials worked for me:
HttpWebRequest httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
httpWebRequest.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
Setup the crendentials by code:
SP.ClientContext context = new SP.ClientContext("MySPDevInstance");
context.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");
You should put this at the configuration file to change it without publishing or recompiling the application.
Just to add one more setting that I encountered. If the account is restricted to access only certain servers than add the client machine to that account as well. For example if a web application is hosted on Server A and trying to connect to SharePoint 2010 on Server B with account ABC then make sure that account has access to Server A in Active Directory. Normally the AD account doesn't have restrictions to connect to machines but in my case the account was restricted to only certain machines. I added my web application hosted server to the account and it worked.
