HTTP_FILTER_AUTH_COMPLETE_INFO

The ISA Server Web proxy includes a pointer to the HTTP_FILTER_AUTH_COMPLETE_INFO structure in the notification that it sends to Web filters after it has successfully completed authentication. If your filter should be notified for this event, it must register to receive SF_NOTIFY_AUTH_COMPLETE notifications. For more information about the types of event notifications that are sent to Web filters, see Event Notifications.

Note  When you are creating a Web filter for ISA Server, we recommend that you use WPX_HTTP_FILTER_AUTH_COMPLETE_INFO rather than HTTP_FILTER_AUTH_COMPLETE_INFO.

Members

GetHeader
Pointer to the GetHeader callback function, which can be used to retrieve a specified header or a portion of the request line in the incoming request. Header names include a trailing colon (:). Individual portions of the request line are specified by the special values "method", "URL", and "version". The special values are case-sensitive and must not include the trailing colon.
SetHeader
Pointer to the SetHeader callback function, which can be used to modify or delete the value of a header or to add a new header. Unlike the IIS function of the same name, this function cannot be used to modify the portions of the request line specified by the special values.
AddHeader
Pointer to the AddHeader callback function, which can be used to add an HTTP header to the request.
GetUserToken
Pointer to the GetUserToken function that returns a handle to the token of the user for whom impersonation will be performed.
HttpStatus
Not used.
fResetAuth
If set to TRUE, the authentication process will be reset, and no impersonation will be done.
dwReserved
A DWORD reserved for later use.

Remarks

This structure allows you to view the method, URL, version, or headers, or to modify the headers sent from the client. The SF_NOTIFY_AUTH_COMPLETE notification is sent after the client's identity has been negotiated with the client, or when the client is anonymous. Because of the timing of this notification, the AUTH_USER server variable can be used to reliably obtain the identity of the user. Also, functionality is provided to retrieve a copy of the token that ISA Server will use to impersonate the client when processing the request.

All authentication scheme processes should result in either SF_NOTIFY_AUTH_COMPLETE, authentication, giving the filter a handle to a token of the user to be impersonated, or ACCESS_DENIED, when the user is not recognized by the system.

The SF_NOTIFY_AUTH_COMPLETE notification may be used for:

Note  If a filter needs to add authorization headers after a request is authenticated and before the request is sent to the upstream Web server, it must do so by parsing the request after the SF_NOTIFY_FORWARD_RAW_DATA notification, rather than after the SF_NOTIFY_AUTH_COMPLETE notification.

This is because when the request is authenticated, ISA Server removes every authorization header before sending the request on to the upstream Web server. (In forward-proxy scenarios, it removes proxy authorization headers. In reverse-proxy scenarios, it removes authorization headers.) Therefore, even if the filter adds an authorization header after the SF_NOTIFY_AUTH_COMPLETE notification, it will be removed.

Requirements

Server: Requires Windows Server 2003 or Windows 2000.
Version: Requires Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004.
Header: Declared in Wpxhttpfilt.h.
