51 of 4530 | ISA/IGA and OWASP Vulnerabilities - Hi All, In 2007, OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) published their Top 10 most serious web application vulnerabilities at http://www.owasp.org/index.php/Top_10_2007.   A summary of their Top 10 is outlined in the table below with a brief mitigation approach for each.  You will quickly see that a primary component of mitigating these vulnerabilities is the Intelligent Application Gateway (IAG) product. IAG runs on top of ISA to provide higher-level security closer to the application level than that provided by ISA alone.  Attack Type Description Mitigation ......

52 of 4530 | Scripting DBA Actions - Last Thursday morning @ the PASS Summit I participated in a panel discussion on automating DBA tasks. It was a great discussion and I was humbled by the other panel members. During the discussion I jotted down a few notes that I didn’t get to mention during the talk. The talk was recorded and will likely be available on Quest’s site in the next few days or so. The first distinction to draw is the difference between scripting and automating tasks. Scripting tasks simply means there is some programmatic representation of the task you want to perform. The program can be in any language you choose: Python, PowerShell, C#, Perl, T-SQL, SSIS, etc. The script does all of the necessary work. Auto......

53 of 4530 | Importing Multiple Scripts using DTE - We have had a lot of requests from folks that would rather not go through the Import Script Wizard when they have multiple T-SQL source scripts. Fortunately Visual Studio provides the ability to execute parameterized commands by using the Design Time Extensibility (DTE) framework. For a typical list of such commands visit this MSDN Library entry. In this blog I’ll lead you through a useful command provided by General Distribution Release (GDR) for Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition which allows you to bypass the Import Script Wizard and import your scripts directly into your project system. Step 1: Create a script Create a script as c:\myScript.txt with the following content......

56 of 4530 | jQuery Intellisense in VS 2008 - Last month I blogged about how Microsoft is extending support for jQuery.  Over the last few weeks we've been working with the jQuery team to add great jQuery intellisense support within Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Web Developer 2008 Express (which is free).  This is now available to download and use.

61 of 4530 | New Version of Error Logging Modules and Handlers (ELMAH) Available - ELMAH is a free, open-source library created by Atif Aziz for logging errors that occur in an ASP.NET application. I've written about ELMAH many times before; its one of the first things I setup when creating a new ASP.NET application. A new version - ELMAH 1.0 BETA 3 - was recently released. With just a few minutes of setup and configuration you can have ELMAH automatically log unhandled exceptions to a number of different data stores - SQL Server, Oracle, a Microsoft Access database, an XML file, to an e-mail address, and so on. You can also write code to proactively record an error via the ELMAH library. Granted, ASP.NET provides some built-in support for logging errors via its health m......

62 of 4530 | Tip#25: Did you know... You can have canonical URLs and Redirects with IIS 7.0 - Canonical URLs help you to make your links Search Engine Optimized (SEO). For human it is easy to understand that http://www.contoso.com is same as http://contoso.com. But many search engines will not make this assumption and treat them as two separate entries. This will split the rankings among them and lower the overall relevance of the site. In IIS7.0 you can use URL Rewrite to solve this problem. The following rule when added in the "Web.config" file in the root of your web site will automatically direct all the people using http://contoso.com to http://www.contoso.com. <configuration> <system.webServer> <rewrite> <rules> &l......

67 of 4530 | Mocking and stubbing easier than ever with Moq 2.6 - I've just released a new version of Moq which contains a few bug fixes but two extremely useful features: recursive mocks and mocked default values. Recursive mocks Quite often you have a root mock object from which other mocks should "hang" through property accesses, such as HttpContextBase.Response: you want the response object returned to also be a mock. Setting such hierarchies before this release was quite verbose:var context = new Mock<HttpContextBase>(); var response = new Mock<HttpResponseBase>(); context.Expect(c => c.Response).Returns(response.Object); response.Expect(r => r.ContentType).Returns("application/xml"); In this new release, it's possible to jus......

68 of 4530 | Multi Target Support - I've now enabled "multi target" support. This means that you can compile multiple assemblies at once. One of the advantages this has is that it makes dealing with circular dependencies much easier, but even if there aren't any circular dependencies, it can make building much easier because you don't have to do any dependency analysis. As an example I compiled the jars from the JBoss lib directory: ikvmc -target:library { commons-codec.jar } { commons-httpclient.jar } { commons-logging.jar } { concurrent.jar } { getopt.jar } { jboss-common.jar } { jboss-jmx.jar } { jboss-system.jar } { jboss-xml-binding.jar } { log4j-boot.jar } The curly brace......

72 of 4530 | Generating Enums - In a recent post, Deepak describes how to generate enums using Linq to Sql and SqlMetal. 1. Generate dbml using SqlMetal. 2. Find reference columns in the dbml that will be used as enums in code. Change their type to the enum name. 3. Generate code using SqlMetal. I find this pretty interesting, but there would need to be some kind of conventions or configuration to denote which tables will be used as enumerations in the code. I think the way to tackle this is to create a custom msbuild task that will replace the enums for you based on either an item group or an xml property. This whole thing could be wrapped up in msbuild and applied in a separate proj file or in the AfterBuild or Be......

74 of 4530 | Map Test Fails with 'Value cannot be null' - I have a biztalk map which uses a custom XSLT file rather than the graphical mapper. This map makes use of methods held in a custom dll, accessing via a custom extension XML file.   I created this map a while ago, came back to it today (on a new vm) and found that I was unable to run a successful test - right click the btm in solution explorer and hit 'test map'. On trying this I was presented with a lengthy error message - the important bit being:   Value cannot be null. Parameter name: extension   My first though was that the custom dll probably hadn't been gac'd on the new VM, so I remedied this. Still the problem persisted. The solution was to simply restart Visual Studio - it......

However the more I used Visual Studio, the more I experienced problem with my eyes as well as monotony of the same old white background IDE. So, I made a dark theme of Visual Studio which stopped hurting my eyes again. I also tried to keep the syntax yet readable and make careful selection of colors so that important IDE benefits of syntax highlighting was not overlooked. I also tried to avoid absolutely black background, because that demands your eyes to have extra attention to the text since they were prepared to see nothing. So I choose deep navy blue so that it does not hurt your......

76 of 4530 | Silverlight Tip of the Day #12 - Full Implementation of a Silverlight Policy Server. - Before a Silverlight application can connect to a server it must first successfully connect to a policy server on that machine in order to proceed with the connection. In this tip I will take you through every step you need to create and run your own policy server. To start, create a new C# console application.  Then, create a new XML file called “clientaccesspolicy.xml” and add it to your project. This is the file your Policy Server will send to a client giving it permission to proceed with the connection. The contents of the “clientaccesspolicy.xml” are as follows: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <access-policy> &l......
