InternetPassword Property

Specifies the password used when connecting to the Server Agent.

Namespace:  System.Data.SqlServerCe
Assembly:  System.Data.SqlServerCe (in System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property InternetPassword As String
    Get
    Set
'Usage
Dim instance As SqlCeReplication
Dim value As String

value = instance.InternetPassword

instance.InternetPassword = value
public string InternetPassword { get; set; }
public:
property String^ InternetPassword {
    String^ get ();
    void set (String^ value);
}
member InternetPassword : string with get, set
function get InternetPassword () : String
function set InternetPassword (value : String)

Property Value

Type: System. . :: . .String
The Internet Information Services (IIS) password string. The default is no password.

Remarks

The InternetPassword property is required if the Server Agent is configured to use Basic Authentication or Integrated Windows Authentication. When Integrated Windows authentication is used, InternetPassword is not passed across the network.

When using Basic Authentication, you should configure IIS to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or Private Communication Technology (PCT) encryption to help protect the user's password. In the absence of SSL or PCT encryption, Basic Authentication transmits passwords across the network in an easily decryptable form. This is unsafe; always use SSL or PCT encryption to help protect passwords when using Basic Authentication.

Examples

The following example sets the InternetPassword property of the SqlCeReplication object.

Dim repl As SqlCeReplication = Nothing

Try
    ' Instantiate and configure SqlCeReplication object
    '
    'NOTE: when possible, prompt users to enter security 
    'credentials at runtime. If you store credentials in a file, 
    'you must secure the file to prevent unauthorized access.
    '
    repl = New SqlCeReplication()
    repl.InternetUrl = "https://www.adventure-works.com/sqlce/sqlcesa35.dll"
    repl.InternetLogin = "MyInternetLogin"
    repl.InternetPassword = "<enterStrongPassword>"
    repl.Publisher = "MyPublisher"
    repl.PublisherDatabase = "MyPublisherDatabase"
    repl.PublisherLogin = "MyPublisherLogin"
    repl.PublisherPassword = "<enterStrongPassword>"
    repl.Publication = "MyPublication"
    repl.Subscriber = "MySubscriber"
    repl.SubscriberConnectionString = "Data Source=MyDatabase.sdf"

    ' Create the local SQL Mobile Database subscription
    '
    repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase)

    ' Synchronize to the SQL Server to populate the Subscription 
    '
    repl.Synchronize()
Catch
    ' Handle errors here
    '
Finally
    ' Dispose the repl object
    '
    repl.Dispose()
End Try
SqlCeReplication repl = null;

try
{
    // Instantiate and configure SqlCeReplication object
    //
    //NOTE: when possible, prompt users to enter security 
    //credentials at runtime. If you store credentials in a file, 
    //you must secure the file to prevent unauthorized access.
    //
    repl = new SqlCeReplication();
    repl.InternetUrl = "https://www.adventure-works.com/sqlce/sqlcesa35.dll";
    repl.InternetLogin = "MyInternetLogin";
    repl.InternetPassword = "<enterStrongPassword>";
    repl.Publisher = "MyPublisher";
    repl.PublisherDatabase = "MyPublisherDatabase";
    repl.PublisherLogin = "MyPublisherLogin";
    repl.PublisherPassword = "<enterStrongPassword>";
    repl.Publication = "MyPublication";
    repl.Subscriber = "MySubscriber";
    repl.SubscriberConnectionString = "Data Source=MyDatabase.sdf";

    // Create a local SQL Mobile Database subscription
    //
    repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase);

    // Synchronize to the SQL Server database
    //
    repl.Synchronize();
}
catch (SqlCeException)
{
    // Handle errors here
    //
}
finally
{
    // Dispose the repl object
    //
    repl.Dispose();
}
