How to provide user name and password

when connecting to a network share
up When connecting to a network share for which the current user (in my case, a

own vote favorite
provided.

53 I know how to do this with Win32 functions (the WNet* family from mpr.dll), but
would like to do it with .Net (2.0) functionality.
What options are available?

Maybe some more information helps:

 The use case is a windows service, not an Asp.Net application.

 The service is running under an account which has no rights on the share.
 The user account needed for the share is not known on the client side.
 Client and server are not members of the same domain.

up You can either change the thread identity, or P/Invoke WNetAddConnection2. I

vote94do prefer the latter, as I sometimes need to maintain multiple credentials for different

locations. I wrap it into an IDisposable and call WNetCancelConnection2 to
remove the creds afterwards (avoiding the multiple usernames error):

using (new NetworkConnection(@"\\server\read", readCredentials))

using (new NetworkConnection(@"\\server2\write", writeCredentials)) {
File.Copy(@"\\server\read\file", @"\\server2\write\file");
}

@MarkBrackett I know this is an old answer, but maybe you still know... will the access be granted to the progra

@Breeze - I haven't tested it, but I'd expect it authenticate for the logon session; so if your program is running as
logged on user, they'd have access as well (at least for the duration of the operation). – Mark Brackett Mar 21 at

up I searched lots of methods and i did it my own way. You have to open a connection
vote16d between two machine via command prompt NET USE command and after finishing
own vote your work clear the connection with command prompt NET USE "myconnection"
/delete.

You must use Command Prompt process from code behind like this:

var savePath = @"\\servername\foldername\myfilename.jpg";

var filePath = @"C:\\temp\myfileTosave.jpg";
Usage is simple:

SaveACopyfileToServer(filePath, savePath);
Here is functions:

using System.IO
using System.Diagnostics;

public static void SaveACopyfileToServer(string filePath, string

savePath)
{
var directory = Path.GetDirectoryName(savePath).Trim();
var username = "loginusername";
var password = "loginpassword";
var filenameToSave = Path.GetFileName(savePath);

if (!directory.EndsWith("\\"))
filenameToSave = "\\" + filenameToSave;

var command = "NET USE " + directory + " /delete";

ExecuteCommand(command, 5000);

command = "NET USE " + directory + " /user:" + username + " "
+ password;
ExecuteCommand(command, 5000);

command = " copy \"" + filePath + "\" \"" + directory +

filenameToSave + "\"";

ExecuteCommand(command, 5000);

command = "NET USE " + directory + " /delete";

ExecuteCommand(command, 5000);
}
And also ExecuteCommand function is:

public static int ExecuteCommand(string command, int timeout)

{
var processInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("cmd.exe", "/C " +
command)
{
CreateNoWindow = true,
UseShellExecute = false,
WorkingDirectory = "C:\\",
};

var process = Process.Start(processInfo);

process.WaitForExit(timeout);
var exitCode = process.ExitCode;
process.Close();
return exitCode;
}
 This functions worked very fast and stable for me.

up OK... I can resond..

vote3dow
n vote Disclaimer: I just had an 18+ hour day (again).. I'm old and forgetfull.. I can't spell..
I have a short attention span so I better respond fast.. :-)

Question:

Is it possible to change the thread principal to an user with no account on the local
machine?

Answer:

Yes, you can change a thread principal even if the credentials you are using are not
defined locally or are outside the "forest".

I just ran into this problem when trying to connect to an SQL server with NTLM
authentication from a service. This call uses the credentials associated with the
process meaning that you need either a local account or a domain account to
authenticate before you can impersonate. Blah, blah...

But...
 Calling LogonUser(..) with the attribute of ????_NEW_CREDENTIALS will return
a security token without trying to authenticate the credentials. Kewl.. Don't have to
define the account within the "forest". Once you have the token you might have to
call DuplicateToken() with the option to enable impersonation resulting in a new
token. Now call SetThreadToken( NULL, token ); (It might be &token?).. A call to
ImpersonateLoggedonUser( token ); might be required, but I don't think so. Look it
up..

Do what you need to do..

Call RevertToSelf() if you called ImpersonateLoggedonUser() then

SetThreadToken( NULL, NULL ); (I think... look it up), and then CloseHandle() on
the created handles..

No promises but this worked for me... This is off the top of my head (like my hair)
and I can't spell!!!

up The Luke Quinane solution looks good, but did work only partially in my ASP.NET
vote3do MVC application. Having two shares on the same server with different credentials I
wn vote could use the impersonation only for the first one.

The problem with WNetAddConnection2 is also that it behaves differently on

different windows versions. That is why I looked for alternatives and found
the LogonUser function. Here is my code which also works in ASP.NET:
public sealed class WrappedImpersonationContext
{
public enum LogonType : int
{
Interactive = 2,
Network = 3,
Batch = 4,
Service = 5,
Unlock = 7,
NetworkClearText = 8,
NewCredentials = 9
}

public enum LogonProvider : int

{
 Default = 0, // LOGON32_PROVIDER_DEFAULT
WinNT35 = 1,
WinNT40 = 2, // Use the NTLM logon provider.
WinNT50 = 3 // Use the negotiate logon provider.
}

[DllImport("advapi32.dll", EntryPoint = "LogonUserW", SetLastError

= true, CharSet = CharSet.Unicode)]
public static extern bool LogonUser(String lpszUsername, String
lpszDomain,
String lpszPassword, LogonType dwLogonType, LogonProvider
dwLogonProvider, ref IntPtr phToken);

[DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
public extern static bool CloseHandle(IntPtr handle);

private string _domain, _password, _username;

private IntPtr _token;
private WindowsImpersonationContext _context;

private bool IsInContext

{
get { return _context != null; }
}

public WrappedImpersonationContext(string domain, string username,

string password)
{
_domain = String.IsNullOrEmpty(domain) ? "." : domain;
_username = username;
_password = password;
}

// Changes the Windows identity of this thread. Make sure to always

call Leave() at the end.
[PermissionSetAttribute(SecurityAction.Demand, Name = "FullTrust")]
public void Enter()
{
if (IsInContext)
return;

_token = IntPtr.Zero;
bool logonSuccessfull = LogonUser(_username, _domain,
_password, LogonType.NewCredentials, LogonProvider.WinNT50, ref
_token);
if (!logonSuccessfull)
{
throw new Win32Exception(Marshal.GetLastWin32Error());
}
WindowsIdentity identity = new WindowsIdentity(_token);
_context = identity.Impersonate();

Debug.WriteLine(WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name);
}
 [PermissionSetAttribute(SecurityAction.Demand, Name = "FullTrust")]
public void Leave()
{
if (!IsInContext)
return;

_context.Undo();

if (_token != IntPtr.Zero)
{
CloseHandle(_token);
}
_context = null;
}
}
Usage:
var impersonationContext = new WrappedImpersonationContext(Domain,
Username, Password);
impersonationContext.Enter();

//do your stuff here

impersonationContext.Leave();

this approach worked well for me, but noticed in my testing that when using a bad password with a domain user
account, that user is immediately throw into locked status. our domain policy calls for a 3 failed login attempts befo
that happens, but via this approach one bad attempt and you're locked. So, use with caution... – kellyb Oct 2 '15 at

up One option that might work is using WindowsIdentity.Impersonate (and change

vote2do the thread principal) to become the desired user, like so. Back to p/invoke, though,
wn vote I'm afraid...
Another cheeky (and equally far from ideal) option might be to spawn a process to
do the work... ProcessStartInfo accepts a .UserName, .Password and .Domain.
Finally - perhaps run the service in a dedicated account that has access? (removed as
you have clarified that this isn't an option).
