I want to create a WCF-service hosted in IIS6 and disable anonymous authentication in IIS. And don't use SSL.
So only way I have is to use basicHttpBinging with TransportCredentialOnly
, itsn't it?
I create a virtual directory, set Windows Integrated Auth and uncheck "Enable Anonymous Access".
Here's my web.config:
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="MyBinding">
<security mode="TransportCredentialOnly">
<transport clientCredentialType="Windows" />
</security>
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<services>
<service name="Samples.ServiceFacadeService" behaviorConfiguration="ServiceFacadeServiceBehavior">
<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingName="MyBinding"
contract="Samples.IServiceFacadeService">
</endpoint>
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="ServiceFacadeServiceBehavior">
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>
You can see that I even haven't included MEX-enpoint for metadata exchange. Just one endpoint and one binding for it with TransportCredentialOnly security.
But when I tries to start service (invoking a method throught client proxy) I got such exception in the EventLog:
Exception:
System.ServiceModel.ServiceActivationException:
The service
'/wcftest/ServiceFacadeService.svc'
cannot be activated due to an
exception during compilation. The
exception message is: Security
settings for this service require
'Anonymous' Authentication but it is
not enabled for the IIS application
that hosts this service.. —>
System.NotSupportedException: Security
settings for this service require
'Anonymous' Authentication but it is
not enabled for the IIS application
that hosts this service.
I have no idea why my service require Anonymous auth? Why?

The answer found jezell. Thanks. I mixed up bindingName and bindingConfiguration :
That's right:
