Quick and dirty dotfiles for configuring a Windows based workstation for the development efforts that I typically am involved in.

Please note that some of these configurations are ‘work-arounds’ based on DoD security implementations and are usually not the best approach if you are not required to do so.

  • Add my Oracle SQL Developer configuration and report files
  • Add my Client-Side SSL Visual Studio configuration/setup notes
  • Add my git hooks

Visual Studio Client-Side (CAC) Authentication during Development

Enable SSL for the project if not already enabled.

  • Highlight the API project from Solution Explorer and press F4.
  • Set the following properties:
    • Always Start When Debugging:= true
    • Anonymous Authentication:= Enabled
    • Managed Pipeline Mode:= Integrated
    • SSL Enabled:= true
    • SSL URL:= https://localhost:44300/
    • URL:= https://localhost:60565

Modify the IIS-Express applicationhost.config file.

By default, the config file will be located at:

  • VS2013 := C:\Users\<you>\Documents\IISExpress\config
  • VS2015 := $(solutionDir)\.vs\config\applicationhost.config

Create a backup of the original file before making modifications.
i.e. config\applicationhost.config.bkup

Locate the access tag and modify the sslFlags attribute to “SslNegotiateCert”

i.e. <access sslFlags=”SslNegotiateCert” />

<system.webServer>
  <security>
    <access sslFlags=”SslNegotiateCert”/>
  </security>
</system.webServer>

NOTE: Using the SslRequireCert attribute did not provide the CAC prompt on the USAF environment.

If propertly configured, you will be prompted for CAC when making request to port 44300.

  • With CAC prompt
  • https://localhost:44300/
  • Without CAC prompt
  • http://localhost:60565/
