Hi,
WE are writng the SOA based WCF web services for various type of clients including Powerbuilder, C++, VB, Silverlight, ASP.NET, Perl etc. One of the service is Authentication and authorization.
I have come across the WCF applicaiton services. But we cant use the default providers as we have our owm database structur ena dthirdparty authenticaiton machanism.
My question is if we dont use the default providers of the WCF Appliciaton services then what is an advantage of writing custom providers using the Interface provided by the WCF appliciaton services vs writing our own Operation contracts. Is ther eany advantage of using WCF Authenticiaton services in this case.
Please Let me know.
Thanks
