Programmatic login to SP 2010 as superuser (site level) by means of userid and password supplied at runtime

Question

Hi,

Thank you for your excellent credentials.  I am currently trying to sort out a problem handed off to me by my superiors.

It is to logon to SP 2010 programmatically as Super User by using user id and password supplied at runtime.  Please note that we will not be using any forms for this purpose.  Instead of login through user interactivity, we need to implement programmtic logon.

If this is not feasible, what are other approximate alternatives?

Please help me out considering that I am just a student of SP 2010.

Thanks

Answer 2

Probably, I was unclear.  The requirement is following.

The user id's and passwords are stored with SharePoint 2010.

A client program collects uid/pwd at runtime and redirects user to a sought-after page in a SharePoint 2010 site if uid/pwd match and the authentication policy permits.

I will appreciate a specific and detailed response.

Answer 3

One more way to explain my task.

1) Let SharePoint 2010 has a site user with uid: [e-mail] and pwd: abc@123 (stored with it).

2) A client program has hardcoded these two (as given in #1) values.  It also has a URL (hardcoded) of a sharepoint 2010 site*.

3) [e-mail] is authorized to read from or write to the site (*).

3) #2 should be able to open up the site (*) (with permissions given in #3) for any user that accesses it.

Kindly revert back if it is still unclear.

Hi,

I think SPutility member can help you out. If my understanding is right then you want to redirect user to site based on his  /her credential.

If so then please check this MSDN article:

Let us know if i misunderstood you

Answer 5

I am asking for anyone to be able to login and have site-level access, programmatically, through hardcoded sharepoint userid and password.

Please don't stereotype the solution as impersonation, which is static why undesirable.

Is there  a solution?
