I'm developing a windows application which must have a user login procedure, to provide different system access capabilities to different users.
Each user must be allowed to change his password at any time (so the passwords (or better: the password md5 hashes) cannot be "hard coded" in the software); therefore I'm looking for the best way to store the passwords, and I would like to avoid using the windows registry.
Of course I cannot simply write the user/md5hash pairs in a regular text file, otherwise anyone could simply replace the md5 hashes with the hashes of known passwords and get full access to the system.
Can anybody help me?
Thank you.

It is probably best practice to encrypt the storage data file and therefore not possible for someone to tamper with the contents.

Yes, but what kind of encryption do you think would be the best for this kind of problem?
Thanks.

Use any symmetric-key algorithm such as AES (aka Rijndael), Blowfish, RC4, TDES.

Your question is too vague for you to get an answer.

Hi all,
I have an app which starts and automates winword. Sometimes on error word doesn't close correctly and stays unmotivated and blocking in memory. This apps can not continue until word is cleaned from memory. I have no ideas where and how I can get these proc-ID's. But in an very useful app called "Process Explorer" you can see the relationship between the apps who called sub-apps (master - slave).
Who can show me a codesnippet, which returns the proc ID's of apps which were started from my (master) application. With this information I could kill the lazy blocking (word)-exe's.
Thanks for all your good ideas in advance.

Depending on how you are starting the process you might want to look at System.Diagnostics.Process
<br />
Process process = new Process();<br />
<br />
ProcessStartInfo processStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(executableFile, commandLine);<br />
process.StartInfo = processStartInfo;<br />
<br />
process.Start();<br />
<br />
int procId = process.Id;<br />

Hello everybody,
I want to connect a computer on one LAN to a computer on another LAN using a modem and a phone line (a HyperTerminal sort of thing).
I want to be able to dial a number from a list and send and receive messages and files, preferably with acknowledgement.
I also want the whole stuff in c# (v2003) using Windows Forms (GUI), not the console type.
Can anyone of you help me out with this or point me to a link where it might be available.
Thanks a lot.

There are several ways to do it.
-> Draw a circle (with fill) and a Rectangle(with fill same color as background) over it (covering half the circle).
-> Look into FillPath and FillPie methods of the graphics object MSDN.
hope this helps...

Hello,
In my application (net2.0) I have a few threads. I want to stop the threads when the main form is closed. Now I'm not sure what I have to do.
Normally I would implement a IDisposable interface. In the form exists this function already and it is not virtual.
What is the best way to implement this? Which event I should use?
Regards

Hi
When you create your threads, set the IsBackground property to true.
When you close the app, the background threads are automatically terminated.

Hello,
Try to use FormClosing event (.net 2.0) of the form.

Not sure, but add this to your constructor.
SetStyles(ControlStyles.Opaque, false);

I have a datagrid, user can choose which cols will printed. Ex : User choose 5 cols, the report will have 5 cols. How to do that in crystal report.
Regards.

If I'm not mistaken you have two ways of using Crystal Reports, Push and Pull, One of them can attach Datasets, making the reports more or less dynamic. Crystal Reports isn't really 'dynamic' as anyone would want it yet. Let's hope in the next version they will integrate it a little more with .net ways  .
What you can do, with a little meddling is doing it via passing parameters to the report. I'm not sure what you'd like to do, but to make the reports dynamic we used to ask the parameters in our application. The application would than pass them to the report.
hope this helps
