Hi,

I have set a WCF up as a webservice(percall), this webservice will getting request from a wide range of systems. Now we need somekind of way to identify the client.

Its possible to build a CustomUserNamePasswordValidation but this demands a secured(SLL) communication. In our case we do not need the security and the solution needs to be as easy as possible to setup.

So the question is how to send client identifikation(username/password) on each call?

I could place the identifikation data in the header but Im not sure how this can be tested with example soupUI? And Im not sure if all systems that will be communicate can handle this without complications?

Any sugestions?

Please note: I do only want to do 1 call, so no login service method should have to be used.

    WCF do not suport sending user credentials unsecured. To solve this you could use the clear username binding or adding the credentials manually in the heador of the message(this is simple with WCF)
