WCF: Windows or UserName authentication in one endpoint
We are implementing the following log on mechanism for our 3-tier application: User launches the client application and -
- authenticates using her Windows session credentials (Active Directory)
- or enters her AD credent开发者_如何学JAVAials if another user is already logged on to this Windows session
- or enters her user name and password if the computer is not on the AD domain.
I.e. something like the SQL Server Management Studio log on box (+point 2. above).
The solution we came up with is having two endpoints, with two system bindings (one with Windows, the other with UserName client credential type).
I was wondering if there's a way of having just one endpoint with a custom binding that would magically allow the mixed authentication (either Windows or UserName)?
Also, why is it a bad idea?
Thanks!
