WPF, WCF Seucity using ASP.Net Authentication

Question

I am building an application that has a WCF service that a WPF and ASP.Net MVC client will connect to.

I want to use the ASP.Net Membership providers for authentication for both the MVC and WPF clients.

What is the best way to go about this? I have read a number of articles on-line (see below) and tried following them through but keep running into errors.

Try checking this CodePlex WCF Security Link, it provides a number of scenarios with pretty complete checklists for the configuration of the security setup. Hopefully there will be a scenario that will be close to yours that you can go through and check things against.
