CSLA Light intranet app authentication

Here are the instructions I had from the time this feature was developed.  You would need to inherit from Windows Identity when building Identity class.

Thanks.

How to setup CSLA for SL to use Windows Authentication

1.       Setup IIS to host WCF service for Data Portal and SL host web site.  The process does not seem to work on development IIS server.

2.       Setup virtual directory to use Integrated Windows authentication.  Disable anonymous access.

3.       Setup service model section in web.config for WCF hosted Data Portal in the following fashion in order to enable binding to send windows credentials:

4.       Important notes: you cannot use metadata exchange end point because mexHttpBinding does not support security settings

5.       If you are part of the domain, you must be logged on to the domain, either directly or via VPN.

<system.serviceModel>

…

<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" />

…

<services>

           <service behaviorConfiguration="WcfPortalBehavior" name="Csla.Server.Hosts.Silverlight.WcfPortal">

                 <endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="Csla.Server.Hosts.Silverlight.IWcfPortal" bindingConfiguration="MyBinding">

                       <identity>

                             <dns value="localhost"/>

                       </identity>

                 </endpoint>

                 <!--<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange"/>-->

           </service>

     </services>

     <bindings>

           <basicHttpBinding>

                 <binding name="MyBinding">

                       <security mode="TransportCredentialOnly">

                             <transport clientCredentialType="Windows" />

                       </security>

                 </binding>

           </basicHttpBinding>

     </bindings>

Hi

I'm starting development of a Silverlight and CSLA Light app and don't know how to use Windows authentication. All samples have different authentication modes.
