I have created a Windows Forms Application on Visual Studio with multiple forms that link together via button clicks. It also has a connection to an SQL Server which is used to store data that is entered into the textboxes and other controls.
Is there any possible way to host this application onto a Web Page?
No.
If you want to make the functionality available on the web you will have to rewrite the application as a web application.
You can use VB.net to code a web application so you would be able to reuse some of your existing code.

I have a general question about using Windows authentication in an ASP.NET Core MVC project.
As far as I could understand is that you can have the authentication based on the Windows user. If I would deploy the website and different clients would connect to the website, would I be able to get all the windows user names that are connecting to the page? And also would they also see different content if I would program the content based on the Windows user that is connecting?
Thanks

No. That service is part of SharePoint and requires SharePoint Server.
It is , however, possible to connect your local PowerPoint to your database directly and have it generate data. You can then save that PowerPoint to a server and then use an iframe to point that page to the PowerPoint file.
I should like to control my old vb.net application also via web.
I should like to duplicate few labels/texts and few buttons/checkbox to control some parameters, simply connecting with a browser to a web page. (Not with Ultravnc or similar)
So, Adding a web interface at the existing project.
I'm note able to find the method to follow.
Can you help me?
Thank you
It sounds like you want to create a VB.net web project.
You'll need to create a new web project for that. You should also factor out any business logic into a separate assembly so it can be used by both the winforms and web application.
You can make connection between your desktop application and web application with this code.
I have a Silverlight RIA application that uses Forms authentication. We want to pass users of a certain domain through Windows authentication and if that fails or user is not part of that domain it falls back to Forms authentication.
Most of the stuff I've found was for aspx sites using methods not available in Silverlight. Many others say it isn't possible. Has anybody managed to do this without to much trouble?
The app is based on the Silverlight Business Application template in VS2010 (SL4).
I don't think this is possible. Ran into the same issue and decided to turn off windows authentication.

The second link seems to indicate this is a bug that may be resolved in a future release
I am new to InfoPath. My goal is to be able to develop Forms, exposed through Web, supporting Offline mode, submitted later on to Web Applications / Services, etc ...
Is the above doable with InfoPath? Do I need Form Services to run InfoPath? Can I use ASP.NET to host InfoPath forms, like any Web page ?
Books/Resources to start with?
Thank you
Regards
Yes, it is doable in Infopath. However, can you elaborate on offline mode ?
Infopath forms can either be opened in web browser or in Infopath Client. If you want the forms to open browser, you need Form Services which is nothing but Forms Server.
You can use ASP.NET to host infopath forms. However, if you want them to render in the browser itself, you will also need Forms server.
