I'm new to WCF (and using services in general) and would like to get some information about my security concerns.

I have tried [OperationBehavior(Impersonation = ImpersonationOption.Required)] on my method that hits the database. None of it works. I get a wide variety of error messages depending on how my config is setup. Can anyone lay out for me what C# an...

RestProj has a dependency to the RestProj.DataAccess dll which houses all of the data access layer and to the WCFRestContrib dll. I have another project that contains all of the Rest parameters (data...
I have a simple WCF 4.0 service with some simple methods and a property with a getter that returns List. The service works fine when connected to programatically. The getter is decorated as are the other methods on the Interface that define the service contract. My next move is to make the service accessible via the IE web browser so se...

I have 2 WCF services going through the same TCP port. Both services are self-hosted, one attaches to net.tcp://localhost:8700/DataAccess another to net.tcp://localhost:8700/Messages Will I gain any performance by attaching them to different ports? One of the services is very busy sending megabytes of data every second. Any reason to h...
So I was having a debate with my co worker about WCF RIA Services, and exactly how much data we send to the client in a given request. Here is the setup: We are creating a reporting application in Silverlight and grabbing data from a WCF RIA Service to populate various grids and charts. We have two differing ideas as to how to implement...
The question is simple enough. And judging by my last thirty minutes of searching around, I'm assuming that the answer is a resounding "no". So if it's a no, here's a follow up question: What's the best workaround? Is a COM wrapper around the web service a viable solution for a VBA version that old? Most of the functionality in the web...
