Regarding Windows Authentication - Failed login attempts

Question

User-1586556547 posted

Hi,

I have an asp.net mvc web application with windows authentication. We have logging enabled in IIS, through this log we are able to track list of users accessing the application, IP number of the user, time accessed etc.

We have a requirement wherein when user attempts to login to the application with incorrect credentials, we would require IP No, user ID, time of the event etc of the user.

Is there a way to log user details when a user attempts to login to the application with invalid credentials.

Thanks and Regards,

Ashvin

Hi,

Unclear. You are talking about information logged to IIS, that you need them and then that you want "details".

Have first a log at the Windows event log (in Security). What you are looking should be logged there already...

If not please be more explicit about which information you want to log (or you want to log the same information to a particular place for ease of use ?)

Hi PatriceSc,

Thanks a Ton. I was able to track the failed user login attempt through event viewer.

Thanks and Regards,
