Windows WCF Authentication Error
I am trying to use a Service with a WCF console application. But the only response I get is, "The remote server returned an unexpected response: (400) Bad request."
The service is configured with the following parameters:
<services>
<service name="TryOut.BasicService" behaviorConfiguration="NicksBasicBehavior">
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://192.168.10.67:8000/Service" />
</baseAddresses>
</host>
<endpoint address ="http://192.168.10.67:8000/Service"
name="NicksEndpoint"
binding="basicHttpBinding"
contract="TryOut.IBasicService"
bindingConfiguration="BasicBinding"
/>
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="NicksBasicBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<binding name="BasicBinding">
<security mode="TransportCredentialOnly">
<transport clientCredentialType="Windows"/>
</security>
</binding>
My Client's config file is as follows:
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="NicksEndpoint" closeTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00"
receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" allowCookies="false"
bypassProxyOnLocal="false" hostNameComparisonMode="StrongWildcard"
maxBufferSize="65536" maxBufferPoolSize="524288" maxReceivedMessageSize="65536"
messageEncoding="Text" textEncoding="utf-8" transferMode="Buffered"
useDefaultWebProxy="true">
<readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="8192" maxArrayLength="16384"
maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384" />
<security mode="TransportCredentialOnly">
<transport clientCredentialType="Windows" proxyCredentialType="None"
realm="" />
<message clientCredentialType="UserName" algorithmSuite="Default" />
</security>
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://192.168.10.67:8000/Service" binding="basicHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="NicksEndpoint" contract="ServiceReference1.IBasicService"
name="NicksEndpoint" />
</client>
Now everything works fine when I run the client on the same PC as the service. But if I try to run the client on a computer that is not in the domain of the PC's server, then I get an error even though I provide login information in the client code:
c.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("Nick", "password", "mydomain");
Has anyone figured out what I am doing wrong and how I can fix this? Thank you pending!
According to this article on MSDN , it looks like you need to specify your credentials in a different way:
WCFTestService.Service myService = new WCFTestService.Service();
myService.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
MessageBox.Show(myService.GetData(123, true));
myService.Dispose();
Could you try this code and try to pass Windows credentials to myService.Credentials
? It works?
