It is a free asp.net hosting
www.brinkster.com
The above hosting doesn't support ftp when it provides free hosting.
Is there any better choice for free asp.net hosting?
hi
when i need t deploy my asp.net project on any of free asp.net hosting site can i hide my code... deploy only the file whic are requied
what file are requied...?
how to hide the code files...
if so i share my password with some one....
Files that we uploaded to the Free Hosting Server cannot be encryted or protected since we have no right.
The poor security is the main disadvantage of using the Free Hosting.
You can use a database to store passwards... always hash them.
Some free hosts provide password protected folders or the folder that is private.
Suppose we use database to store paassword.
Can u show me how to hide the connection string(which contains database password) in the asp.net web page please?
I am thinking that if I register two web hosting,
One web hosting for store the database password
One web hosting for store database.
Is it the solution?
From their site:
WOW! They've really spruced things up. Originally the FREE account was designed to give people a place to "play" with .NET and test tings out before actually deploying it. It wasn't/isn't intended to be used as full-fledged web hsoting.Quote:
Whether using the file upload feature in Visual Studio .NET or the Brinkster Web-based file manager, the General Solution allows you to explore the .NET framework and hone your programming skills. You will not have access to domain name address, the ability to send e-mail from your applications nor FTP, but you may upgrade at any time to any of our paid solutions and all of your files will be transferred seamlessly.
I use php but the underlying security concept must be same.
- asp script source won't be visible to the user.
- set the ip of user to localhost than remote user won't be able to use that connection.
- never use super user or admin account in the connection string. create dummy user for connection and don't give the dummy account any privlages that can be used to do harm if compromised like deleting records. Just keep the passwards hashed.
XfoxX,
What can we do to prevent the administrator of the free web hosting from getting the data that we uploaded?
Nothing. It is very unrealistic to worry about that.Quote:

administrator of the paid web hosting can see that data too. you can only prevent that if you are running the server from your home or office.Quote:

You can still hide the code if you want to. All you have to do is to have a compiled DLL for your 'code-behind'. All you have to deploy really is ASPX pages and a DLL.
The dll is loaded everytime someone downloads the page or there is a simple way to keep the dll loaded through aspx?Quote:

The web application is loaded when someone requests something from it. Then, as long as users are using the application, it stays loaded and running (that is how you can use application variables). When all users have left, the app stops. It will restart again when the next user comes to the site. At least that is how I have come to understand it.
It is a very good solution for security!Quote:

Can I also prevent my art works(eg. *.bmp,*.gif etc) from copying by the administrator of the web hosting server?
Even if there is a way, your art would be sent to the clients browser in your pages anyway, where the client (or admin of the server) could in fact just right click and save.Quote:
