I'm a little confused with using principal object with CSLA in a multi-tier deployment. I have it working fine on my local server, but having trouble applying the context via the dataportal. I am probably missing something. How would I pass the authorization credentials to server side? Or would I have to?

If you have custom principal/identity objects that are Serializable, you just need to set the CslaAuthentication config setting to "Csla" (on client and server) and the data portal will do the work for you.
