LDAP and network drive access (files on network drives) #7701

If LDAP authentication is used (.NET Core + Angular), are there any difficulties (additional request for password,...) to access files on external network drives (with the same AD credentials which are used for authenticating in ANZ)?

For instance. ANZ-based app would be hosted on application server, but files would be stored/located on multiple different external network drives inside local network. Administrator for files on these network drives would assign which AD user could access specific file.

ANZ-based app should be able gracefully handle file access permission stuff transparent as possible.

Thank you for advices.

    Hi @leonkosak

    Sorry for our late response. To be honest, we haven't tried such a scenario before. Have you tried it ? Did you face any problems ?

    Hi, No, but potential customer for ANZ (or abp.io) has such feature request (and it's one of the major features if I understand the system correctly). :) I couldn't give them an answer to this question.

    Hi,

    I found something like this:

    using (new NetworkCredential("user", "pass")) { CredentialCache testCache = new CredentialCache(); testCache.Add(new Uri("\\\\192.168.5.5"), "Basic", testCreds); File.Create("\\\\192.168.5.5\\testfolder\\test.txt"); }

    But I suggest you to test it before purchasing AspNet Zero.
