Pass Windows credentials to remote https WCF service

Question

I need some help, I'm trying to pass windows credentials to a WCF service. In the IIS only Windows authentication is enabled for those service and runs over https.

The server side config is:

<system.serviceModel>
<protocolMapping>
  <add scheme="https" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="httpsBinding"/>
</protocolMapping>
<bindings>
  <basicHttpBinding>
    <binding name="httpsBinding">
      <security mode="Transport">
        <transport clientCredentialType="Windows"/>
      </security>
    </binding>
  </basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<behaviors>
  <serviceBehaviors>
    <behavior>
      <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" httpsGetEnabled="true" />          
    </behavior>
  </serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true"/>

and in the client side:

<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
  <basicHttpBinding>
    <binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IMyService" maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647"
      maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
      <security mode="Transport">
        <transport clientCredentialType="Windows" />
      </security>
    </binding>
  </basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
  <endpoint address="https://myserver.net:4343/MyService.svc"
    binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IMyService"
    contract="MyServiceReference.IMyService" name="BasicHttpBinding_IMyService" />
</client>

I'm trying to consume the service on this way:

Client = new MyServiceClient();
BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.Transport);
binding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = HttpClientCredentialType.Windows;
binding.MaxReceivedMessageSize = int.MaxValue;
binding.MaxBufferPoolSize = long.MaxValue;
binding.MaxBufferSize = int.MaxValue;

EndpointAddress ep = new EndpointAddress("https://myserver.net:4343/MyService.svc");
Client = new COMINTSServiceClient(binding, ep);
Client.ClientCredentials.Windows.AllowedImpersonationLevel = System.Security.Principal.TokenImpersonationLevel.Identification;
Client.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential =  System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
Client.Open();
Array[] obj = Client.RandomMethod();

This code doesn't work for me:

    Client.ClientCredentials.Windows.AllowedImpersonationLevel = System.Security.Principal.TokenImpersonationLevel.Identification;
    Client.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential =  System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;

In the service when ask for the user who is calling to the service using ServiceSecurityContext.Current.WindowsIdentity.Name allways get: ISS APPPOOL\ASP.NET v4.0 instead of the domain\user who is calling

---

The only way to make it work is write the username and password instead DefaultNetworkCredentials.

Client.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential.UserName = "DOMAIN\\user";
Client.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential.Password = "passw";

But I don't want a user/passw hardcoded. Any help please?

Answer 1

Try:

Client.ClientCredentials.Windows.AllowedImpersonationLevel = System.Security.Principal.TokenImpersonationLevel.Impersonation;

Keep the assignment from CredentialCache.
