Hi,
I need to develop a secure Web Service that requires a username and
password. One of the requirements is that the WS supports Windows
Authentication, meaning accepts the username and password the client used to
log on to Windows. The WS then needs to see which Active Directory roles
the user belongs to and allow the user (or not) to perform specific tasks
with the WS.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction as to the
technologies/SDKs I need to use? Specifically:
a) Client: How to gather the current login information and use it to
authenticate against my WS.
b) WS: How to authenticate the user against Active Directory?
Thanks in advance!

If your web service is running in the intranet, than you have to configure
the directory security for the web service in IIS with integrated windows
authentication (only) and have in the web.config the <authenticati on
mode="Windows" /> and <identity impersonate="tr ue" />. This way you force the
web service to run in the security context of the calling user and you can
cast the Identity property of the User to WindowsIdentity .

Thanks for your reply.
How do I access the user information from within the Web Service class?
Thanks!

Over the HttpContext.Use r property, that provides programmatic access to the
properties and methods of the IPrincipal interface. When you use Windows
authentication, the IPrincipal is an WindowsPrincipa l and over
WindowsPrincipa l.IsInRole method you can check the membership of the user in
a Windows group.

One more little problem:
I set the properties as you said in WebConfig.ini. Also, I set the website
in IIS to "Integrated Windows Security". But as soon as I remove "allow
anonymous access", I get an "Unauthoriz ed" exception on the client when i
call on a method, even though it is running under an authenticated domain
user.
Help?
Thanks!

Not WebConfig.ini, but web.config - this is the configuration file for
ASP.net applications!!! !!! See following link for further details: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ewebconfig.asp

Hello,
I am having trouble using Integrated Windows Authentication between our

domain.
Windows authentication works for our intranet server - my domain user
"DOM\nme" is correctly authenticated and authorized to view the ASP.NET page
on our intranet. The ASP.NET application uses impersonation (<identity
impersonate="true"> in Web.config).
