I'm currently developing a small application in WPF for us at work though I'm not a professional software engineer, so this might be obvious. However, I cannot find an answer to my question (maybe I used the wrong keywords)
Anyway, our computers are setup so that we need to log on through Novell Client for Windows. The password from the Novell account is synced with the Windows 'Administrator' account. Thus, effectively, everyone is Administrator on his machine. Novell is used to authenticate against a local Fileserver.
The problem now is, when I try to get the Username in my application using Environment.Username or any other method, I will only ever get 'Administrator' as the logged in user.
Question: How can I get the Novell username from my WPF application?
Thanks in advance
A bit late with the answer but I believe you will find the name of the current user logged into Netware or NDS in the windows registry if you do a search.

(Submitting the following on behalf of a Snowflake User)
I'm looking to find a way to force MFA on all accounts, but understand that this can only be accomplished on a user-by-user basis. Is there any way to set it so that all users must use MFA?
Can anyone recommend a script that does this for all users?
Any recommendations (or alternatives) would be greatly appreciated! THX!
There is no mandatory opt-in for MFA as of now but a feature request for central MFA administration is in process. To identify those users who have not enrolled, one can use login_history/login_history_by_user information schema views to highlight those users. Specifically, when the column 'SECOND_AUTHENTICATION_FACTOR' is NULL, we know users have not enrolled in MFA.
Reference:
login_history
There is the option MINS_TO_BYPASS_MFA that gives people time to login, and enable MFA themselves, and if they don't they are locked out.. so you tell them, log in and set it up...

I want to create an asp.net mvc website with One mysql database but i have so good as no idea what I'm going to need..
So my question: how much servers do I need? Do I net an extra server for my database? Do I need any server? Do I need windows or is Linux/Ubuntu enought?
Well I think that's enough!
At the end I have to say sorry for my maybe silly questions but I don't have any idea of that stuff..
Why do you need server.
Server is place where you upload your site and users view the data. Server can be of Linus OS or Windows.
For .NET technologies like asp.net you need windows server.
For PHP etc you need linux.
Mostly the websites on small scale has one server. but it can be increased later on depending on your traffic on site and also size of your application.

I'm want to save some datas on an online db. How can I connect to an online database (SQLSERVER) on windows phone 8 ?
Thank you.
Dont connect directly to a database from a mobile phone. Use webservices either SOAP or REST. You are opening a can of worms by exposing your database directly to the internet.
Also if you want to expand and include other phones i.e. iPhone and Android to your database then you are going to have lots of different code to maintain.
See this answer Android access to remote SQL database for more information about this.

I am developing an enterprise application including central database, MVC web app, Mobile app client, web services and WPF client Windows service application which are working all together, I am going to make a contract with a company to grant them exclusive re-seller Representation .
So I am thinking a way to control the number of sales and provide them a license key for each sale to they could use the key in installation or other step and I want to get informed by the application whenever it is installing somewhere and want to prevent working when the license is used once or is expired or something. I need a solution from people who have same successful experience in this matter, indeed I have some ideas but actually I am not experienced in this issue and I'll be so happy to hear good approaches on this.
Thanks in advance ...
First you need to choose your preferred licensing system. A small list is available in the Question about OS Licensing Components. Second you'll need some kind of service where your reseller can issue licenses without real access to your private license key. E.g. some kind of webservice.
Then you'll have the number of licenses that your reseller has created and you can bill him.
If you also want to know which licenses was activated you can implement some kind of "phone home" in your application.

To protect software, you can create a validation system which requires users to provide a valid license number (Often 25 letters or digits) which they have to enter with some personal information. This then gets validated (sometimes aby using a validation server, thus requiring online access) and when valid, the user can use the registered version of an application.
Now, simple question: What kinds of solutions are there which would allow developers to implement such a licensing scheme in an easy way into their applications? I could easily create my own solution but I don't want to re-invent the wheel again...
Ezirez Intellilock has a good solution and API to implement it.
Basicly you created a function of (HW ID, Registration Key) and check if it's right.
Intellilock is just a tool to help you lock the software if the license isn't there.
