credential manager in Windows IoT - windowsiot

like in desktop windows, does Microsoft provide credential manager for Windows Iot Core 10 .?
If so, how to access it to store password and use it through my UWP application.?

In Windows IoT Core, there is no credential manager app used to manage the credentials. But we can use some APIs in namespace Windows.Security.Credentials to store and manage your passcodes, passphrases, and other identification information in Windows IoT Core. Please refer to the examples here.

Why is there device information missing after Hybrid Azure joined?

I have successfully have my device showing as 'Hybrid Azure AD joined' but the Owner is now blank. How do you get the to populate again?
Windows 10 devices that are hybrid Azure AD joined don't show up under USER devices. Use the All devices view in the Azure portal. You can also use a PowerShell Get-MsolDevice cmdlet.
Only the following devices are listed under USER devices:
All personal devices that aren't hybrid Azure AD joined.
All non-Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 devices.
All non-Windows devices.

How to use Active Directory Authentication in ASP.NET Core?

I am using the ASP.NET Core 2.1 React SPA Microsoft template.
I want to use Active Directory for user authentication. Our server runs on a corporate network using Active Directory domain identities.
How can I do it?
The best way is to use Windows authentication. However, that will only work if the server you run this on is joined to the domain (or a trusted domain).
If not, then you will have to use Forms Authentication, where the user enters their username and password, and you authenticate against AD in your code via LDAP. There are two ways to do this in .NET Core:
If you will only run this on a Windows server, then you can install and use the Microsoft.Windows.Compatibility NuGet package.
Use the third-party Novell.Directory.Ldap.NETStandard.
There are two answers on this question that describe how to implement both solutions.

Log into a SQL Server database as a different Windows user in Mule from Anypoint Cloudhub

I want to log into an SQL Server database from Mule as a Windows User which has been setup as a generic support user and uses Windows authentication. This Windows user is in a different domain to my personal Windows user account and will use different username and password to me.
Is this possible and if so how would you get it to work in a Mule workflow? I am currently using the generic database connector with integrated security set to true but it looks like it keeps trying to log into the specified database with my credentials and not the username and password I am passing to it in the JDBC string.
When the workflow is complete the Mule project will be run in Anypoint Cloudhub.
Thanks
On Windows you can launch a process with runas /netonly to supply alternative credentials to be used for NTLM authentication.
See, eg
https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/3250/connect-to-sql-servers-in-another-domain-using-windows-authentication/
You can also do this by caching a credential with the Windows Credential Manager, but that would cause your Windows account to always use the alternative credentials.

How to setup virtual Active Directory server in Windows 7 OS?

I want to automate the following scenario:
I need install a 3rd party software. During this installation, i need to provide the following info:
AD domain name
AD domain controller IP
AD domain username
AD domain password.
If I provide the above info, software will fetch user info from AD.
Instead of creating a separate AD server in another machine, I want to setup a AD setup in my Windows 7 PC itself.
I have tried AD LDS. But I am unable to get info about how to setup the above FOUR parameters.
Any idea on how to solve this issue?
Is there any open source tool to configure the above setup in Windows 7?

Connecting and manuplating data on an access database?

I'm working on my thesis project with Windows Phone 7. I'm developing an application requires store data in a database, my thesis supervisor said an Microsoft Access database is enough for this step, because I'm newbie at developing applications for Windows Phone 7.
How can i do that?
Windows Phone 7 doesn't support MS Access.
For a list of databases which are supported on WP7 see Local Sql database support for Windows phone 7
Windows Phone 7 can't have direct access to a database since standard DB connection drivers are not compatible with this platform. What you can do is built a multi-layered project, where there is a web service (easily built with WCF) that connects your Windows Phone 7 application to a local (or remote) database.
You could send request to the web service and it will send those to the database. The same service can send the response back to the app.
Unfortunately I cannot remember the details, but I saw a fairly recent presentation on integrating Sharepoint, Access and the Windows phone.
EDIT
I just found this video:
http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/sharepoint-office-2010-on-windows-phone-7
For access 2010, IT allows one to build web databases. You need SharePoint (Enterprise), and access 2010. You also be able to use Office 365 and skydrive (not out yet).
The resulting access web database can thus be used on the windows 7 phone with the browser. In fact, I have a windows 7 phone and have tested my access applications on it.
In the following video, note how at the half way point, I swtich to using and running the access application in a web browser.
