I have a WCF service using BasicHttpBinding with Windows authentication. Most clients are domain accounts and connect to the service using their default credentials.
Now I want to connect to the service from an ASP.NET client that is running under a local account. I want to connect to the WCF service using windows credentials (domain\user and password) that are available to the ASP.NET application.
I know I can do this in code using ClientBase<T>.ClientCredentials.
Is there a way to specify the credentials (domain\user and password) in the client's web.config file so I don't have to change the code?
EDIT
If it can't be done in the configuration file, is there a way of using System.Net.ICredentials or System.Net.NetworkCredential as a credential for a WCF service?
The .NET Framework provides these as a homogenous way to provide network credentials, but with WCF this seems to have been thrown out in favour of a new incompatible system based on the unrelated System.ServiceModel.Description.ClientCredentials class.
EDIT 2
Accepting Marc's answer to the original question - it seems there is no way to do this in the client configuration file :(
I would see this as a deficiency in WCF - I don't accept that Microsoft should be deliberately discouraging us from putting credentials in the configuration file - after all they have to be stored somewhere, and the Framework includes facilities for encrypting the config file. I guess I could create a custom BehaviorExtensionElement for this, but it ought to be available out of the box.
It's also a bit inconsistent: the system.net/mailSettings/smtp/network configuration element allows credentials to be specified, so why not WCF?
Regarding the second question about using System.Net.NetworkCredential, it seems from this blog that it is po
