Is it possible for kiwi tcms to login through Active Directory?
I would like to implement in the company where I work.
I looked for documentation on the internet but without success, is there this possibility or something thought about in this area?

Cannot find my AAD app in the portal anymore

I've created an AAD application by using the below CMD let:
New-AzureADApplication -DisplayName "My Name" -PublicClient $False -IdentifierUris "https://mytestapp.com"
The command completes with no errors and if I then query list of applications by executing
Get-AzureADApplication
I can see my application but if I go to https://portal.azure.com I am not seeing my app there. I remember for sure I did this multiple times in past and had no problem with it, has anything changed in the portal recently? I also noticed that all my apps in all my directories are not visible if I use a portal - it just shows that I don't have any apps but I can successfully use them to acquire tokens and can see them through PowerShell.
You should make sure you are signed into the right tenant. Use the tenant picker in the top right corner of the Azure Portal:
The fact that all your apps are missing makes me feel like you might simply be looking in the wrong place :)
Firstly, you should ensure you select right Tenant on Portal.
Also, when you select, you should choose All Apps not My Apps, you should see the app.

How to upload code to Google Domains

I have recently bought a domain name in google Domains. How would I upload the code written in angular to the domain.
I dnt know how to proceed. I am new to this so please guid me.
Do I need to buy again something to use this domain. How should use the google domain so that my code works.
You only bought the domain, you did not buy a web host as well.
If you log into your account you can click "Configure Website" and it will list hosts. Additionally, it has an option to forward to your own server.
(It even has a way to forward to a home server if you setup the Dynamic DNS option under "Configure DNS")

Access dotnetnuke site

A very nooby question here, but I do need to ask...
I have been passed a dotnetnuke site, created around 2010, all I have access to is the FTP for the hosting space, so I can see all the files. What I need is to find where the site keeps it's admin panel, so I can manage the pages. From what I have seen online, I need to go to mydomain/dotnetnuke, but there is no such subdir on my host, I suppose the old version I am running probably had a different convention.
What are the older defaults for DNN, from around 2010-2011 (community edition)?
thanks
You can get the login screen by putting ?ctl=login on the end of the url to the website. You will need the admin account info though to login.
The database will have the username and password, but the password will be encrypted.

Can Adobe AIR applications achieve SSO authentication against Active Directory?

I don't know much about AIR apps, but I like what I'm seeing so far. So now, I'm wondering if this type of app would make sense in the intranet at work.
Before I invest time and effort into ramping up on AIR development, I would like to know: is it possible for an AIR app on Windows to do single sign-on authentication against Active Directory? I'm thinking of maybe an AIR app that uses a logged on user's Windows credentials to connect to web services hosted on IIS with Windows auth turned on.
I know that IT security would get on my case if I rolled an app that makes a user enter a password. Any workaround that's not kludgy and accomplishes SSO with AD would be cool too.
I have successfully setup Tomcat 6.0.26 running on CentOS 5.4 (Final) with Java 1.6.0_17-b04 using the SPNEGO servlet filter from spnego.sourceforge.net to automatically authenticate WindowsXP SP3 with IE 7.0 against a Windows 2003 R2 Active Directory domain. In addition, I have an Adobe AIR application developed for use on an intranet that can also authenticate via SPNEGO just like IE7.
Before getting Tomcat working on CentOS, I followed the "pre-flight checklist" and "install guide-tomcat" links at sourceforge.net to get Tomcat working with the SPNEGO filter on a Windows XP server. Once I got things setup so that IE could auto-authenticate, Adobe AIR just worked.
Once I had the username, I wrote some code to pull user groups from the AD LDAP. Helpful links for Java LDAP code may be found at starting at http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=726601.
Definitely. If SSO works in IE it works in your AIR app. We are currently deploying an app that does just this.
AIR running on Windows will use the SSO settings from Internet Explorer. As long as your users can login with SSO in IE, they can do the same in AIR. This can be done with group policy settings pretty easily: add your site as an Intranet site, enable Integrated Windows Authentication, and you're good to go.
Haven't run into any problems so far. We've tested it with about 10 users. YMMV.
Using AIR you can read files from the file system and you can open network connections, so that should get you somewhere.
What would the use of the SSO be? Describing a possible job that this AIR app should perform will help people to give a more helpful answer.
Charles,
If you have an example of some code that pulls I.E. credentials, I would be really grateful to see it. I'm working on building a Flex app that accesses content on a SharePoint server that uses the active directory to authenticate permissions.

Is it a good idea to use Active Directory user login to your application

I am developing a web based intranet for my company. I just want to know is it a good thing for users to login the application using the active directory login details or shall i create a login together with the application db.
If there is anything better that this please suggest. This is my first application development so need help from experienced people.
Generally it's a good idea to try and minimize the number of accounts people need to have.
So I'd definately try and use their active directory login.
Also if desireable, you can automatically log people into your application using various single sign on methods. (Either integrated into IIS, or other.).
This makes for a very usable application, as people always forget login details, and hate to login again to other systems.
Only use Active directory for your intranet, if you infrastructure supports it.
You question is phrased as if you think the user to type there password in again to login to the intranet site - they should not do this! have windows pass on the credentials automatically. This is pretty much built in to dotnet/iis/etc.
Also AD will add group management a privledges so you can restrict areas of you intranet to members of certain groups.
And you support team already have the tools to manage all this.
PS you can enable FireFox to auto log on via NTLM and it is one of the most requested features for Chrome too so don't let browser issues put you off
There are several pros using Active Directory authentication in the intranet.
Thoses are the main ones:
You want to to keep authentication stores number as low as possible
Using Active Directory, users who have their desktop in the domain (as they should) will be able to use Integrated Windows Authentication. They will be able to log in without having to type their password.
An Active Directory authentication mechanism probably exists for your language

If you create a separate login system, then your users have to remember 2 different logins. Why bother, when their "real" login is right at hand?
Less code for you to write and better integration into the wider system. And, who doesn't want FEWER passwords to remember.
Definitely go for the Active Directory option, or use Active Directory as an LDAP server if whatever language you're using doesn't directly support AD. Active Directory actually makes a pretty good LDAP server.
If there is anything better that this please suggest.
OpenID?...
