I’ve found a good example about authenticating WCF services with custom username/password (A simple WCF service with username password authentication: the things they don’t tell you). This fits what I need… partially, I guess. It uses wsHttpBinding and Message as the security mode.

The WCF service I need to build will have Java clients, and my question is if the example from the link above works with Java (“interops” well). Or should I go with basicHttpBinding, securing the connection at transport level (https)?

Thanks

    WCF implements lots of Web Service protocols:

    Although complicated solution is not necessary the best one.
    Go ahead with basicHttpBinding and Transport security if it fits all other requirements you have.

    There is good all-in-one article that describes configuration:
