Transport Security with Windows Authentication

  • Artikel

The following scenario shows a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) client and service secured by Windows security. For more information about programming, see How to: Secure a Service with Windows Credentials.

An intranet Web service displays human resources information. The client is a Windows Form application. The application is deployed in a domain with a Kerberos controller securing the domain.

Service

The following code and configuration are meant to run independently. Do one of the following:

  • Create a stand-alone service using the code with no configuration.

  • Create a service using the supplied configuration, but do not define any endpoints.

Code

The following code shows how to create a service endpoint that uses a Windows security.

' Create the binding.
Dim binding As New NetTcpBinding()
binding.Security.Mode = SecurityMode.Transport
binding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = TcpClientCredentialType.Windows

' Create the URI for the endpoint.
Dim netTcpUri As New Uri("net.tcp://localhost:8008/Calculator")

' Create the service host and add an endpoint.
Dim myServiceHost As New ServiceHost(GetType(ServiceModel.Calculator), netTcpUri)
myServiceHost.AddServiceEndpoint(GetType(ServiceModel.ICalculator), binding, "")

' Open the service.
myServiceHost.Open()
Console.WriteLine("Listening...")
Console.ReadLine()

' Close the service.
myServiceHost.Close()

// Create the binding.
NetTcpBinding binding = new NetTcpBinding();
binding.Security.Mode = SecurityMode.Transport;
binding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType =
    TcpClientCredentialType.Windows;

// Create the URI for the endpoint.
Uri netTcpUri = new Uri("net.tcp://localhost:8008/Calculator");

// Create the service host and add an endpoint.
ServiceHost myServiceHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(Calculator), netTcpUri);
myServiceHost.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(ServiceModel.ICalculator), binding, "");

// Open the service.
myServiceHost.Open();
Console.WriteLine("Listening...");
Console.ReadLine();

// Close the service.
myServiceHost.Close();

Configuration

The following configuration can be used instead of the code to set up the service endpoint:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <system.serviceModel>
    <behaviors />
    <services>
      <service behaviorConfiguration="" name="ServiceModel.Calculator">
        <endpoint address="net.tcp://localhost:8008/Calculator" 
                  binding="netTcpBinding"
          bindingConfiguration="WindowsClientOverTcp" 
                  name="WindowsClientOverTcp"
                  contract="ServiceModel.ICalculator" />
      </service>
    </services>
    <bindings>
      <netTcpBinding>
        <binding name="WindowsClientOverTcp">
          <security mode="Transport">
            <transport clientCredentialType="Windows" />
          </security>
        </binding>
      </netTcpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <client />
  </system.serviceModel>
</configuration>

Client

The following code and configuration are meant to run independently. Do one of the following:

  • Create a stand-alone client using the code (and client code).

  • Create a client that does not define any endpoint addresses. Instead, use the client constructor that takes the configuration name as an argument. For example:

    Dim cc As New CalculatorClient("EndpointConfigurationName")

    CalculatorClient cc = new CalculatorClient("EndpointConfigurationName");

Code

The following code creates the client. The binding is configured to use the Transport mode security, with the TCP transport, with the client credential type set to Windows.

' Create the binding.
Dim myBinding As New NetTcpBinding()
myBinding.Security.Mode = SecurityMode.Transport
myBinding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = TcpClientCredentialType.Windows

' Create the endpoint address.
Dim myEndpointAddress As New EndpointAddress("net.tcp://localhost:8008/Calculator")

' Create the client. The code for the calculator client 
' is not shown here. See the sample applications
' for examples of the calculator code.    
Dim cc As New CalculatorClient(myBinding, myEndpointAddress)
cc.Open()
' Begin using the client.
Try
    cc.Open()

    Console.WriteLine(cc.Add(100, 11))
    Console.ReadLine()

    ' Close the client.
    cc.Close()
Catch tex As TimeoutException
    Console.WriteLine(tex.Message)
    cc.Abort()
Catch cex As CommunicationException
    Console.WriteLine(cex.Message)
    cc.Abort()
Finally
    Console.WriteLine("Closed the client")
    Console.ReadLine()
End Try

// Create the binding.
NetTcpBinding myBinding = new NetTcpBinding();
myBinding.Security.Mode = SecurityMode.Transport;
myBinding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType =
    TcpClientCredentialType.Windows;

// Create the endpoint address.
EndpointAddress myEndpointAddress = new
    EndpointAddress("net.tcp://localhost:8008/Calculator");

// Create the client. The code for the calculator client 
// is not shown here. See the sample applications
// for examples of the calculator code.    
CalculatorClient cc =
    new CalculatorClient(myBinding, myEndpointAddress);
try
{
    cc.Open();

    // Begin using the client.
    Console.WriteLine(cc.Add(100, 11));
    Console.ReadLine();

    // Close the client.
    cc.Close();
}

Configuration

The following configuration can be used instead of the code to create the client.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <netTcpBinding>
        <binding name="NetTcpBinding_ICalculator" >
          <security mode="Transport">
            <transport clientCredentialType="Windows" />
          </security>
        </binding>
      </netTcpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <client>
      <endpoint address="net.tcp://localhost:8008/Calculator" 
                binding="netTcpBinding"          
                bindingConfiguration="NetTcpBinding_ICalculator" 
                contract="ICalculator"
                name="NetTcpBinding_ICalculator">
      </endpoint>
    </client>
  </system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
