My boss, a dba, is telling me there is a way to authenticate a .net web site using sql server 2005 and later. Not forms authentication, not nt authentication, not passing a sql server login in a connection string, etc., but using sql server. Apparently you can let it handle everything. I have not been able to find anything on this. Any ideas?
SQL Server Authentication is really either rolling out Forms authentication yourself or use the out-of-the-box SqlMembershipProvider. The MSDN documentation has a very comprehensive example there.

I'm gonna start developing a single page web application using Microsoft stack. In some critical parts of the project I have to provide real time data.
I can use Signalr or Web Sockets for these kind of tasks. Can you do a comparison of them in terms of usability, performance or learning curves of these technologies. And I'm glad to know if you have another option to suggest.
Thanks in advance,
I think you should go with signalR. It is part of .net framework, it also supports web sockets and if any client doesnt support web sockets it will fallback to long-polling, forever frames any other technology available.

I'm a newbie. For impersonation in IIS, what do you think about it? I think it's unsafe. How can IIS spawn a Win32 thread to handle user request with user's identity? Does this mean this thread can do anything using user's identity without user's permission? For example, this thread can connect to other servers and do operations with user's identity.
When using impersonation you would generally create a user with only enough privileges to do what is required of it, e.g. read contents of a folder in c:\inetpub\wwwroot. Similar to how you wouldn't create a DB user that can delete tables when all you need is for it to read some values.

I want to write webservice on .NET (my Client can be Android, iOS, Mac OS, Website...). My question is that I should use WCF or ASP.NET to do this?
I assume you mean ASP.net Web Apis when you mention ASP.net. There is also ASP.net soap services but those won't be ideal to work with on platforms such as android or iOS.
If you are unsure about what the different web services are, you will most likely want to use ASP.net Web APIs as these are easy to set up and offer multiple content types, XML, JSON, possibly more...
WCF is more built for web services however it has a steep learning curve, which is why I say if you're unsure about what you want, you most likely aren't making something which will require WCF.
For more information I suggest reading: http://idesign.net/articles/asp_net_web_api_vs_wcf.htm
I am assuming you are asking for WCF or websevice. I think WCF is better option. For your refrence:

I am a student and I'm currently doing senior project. I'm required to work on the application control or application platform to let a group of programmer work together on a server with the security. I would like to know how a group of programmer work together on a server and how to work using visual studio 2010 on a server.
Thanks
First of all you have to use a version control system for your code such as SVN, which is one of the most popular.
There are also some other popular systems like GIT. You should try them both and see what fit your needs.
You'll probably want to create user accounts for each programmer on the server and allow them ssh access. Look into git for project version control.
i recommed your download here !
