Getting credentials of specified user

I wrtitting a windows service. This service has to connect SharePoint service and get data different for each user. sharePoint service ret开发者_JAVA百科urn data based on user credentials whitch are set before calling service.

How can I get user credentials by user name and user domain if the service can be run under any account that needs to get this credentials?

Depending on how you add the sharepoint service (web reference or service reference) there are different methods to send credentials with the request.

With a web reference you would add a NetworkCredentials object along the lines of:

SomerService ws = ... //instantiate your service
ws.PreAuthenticate = true;
ws.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredentials("username","pw","domain");

if it´s a service reference with wsHttpBinding then something like this:

Service client = ... //instantiate your service
client.ClientCredentials.UserName.UserName = "domain\\username";
client.ClientCredentials.UserName.Password = "password";

Then you need to store the username/password for each user you are retrieving content for.

If this is a pass-thru service where the client accesses your service and it access sharepoint on the users behalf you have to set up Kerberos authentication and allow impersonation to pass thru. Maybe you could expand on what you are trying to accomplish.
