Remarks

This class is used to parse UsernameToken security tokens within incoming SOAP messages. WSE provides a default implementation that authenticates all UsernameToken security tokens in a received SOAP message against a Windows account. WSE calls the Win32 LogonUser function for this authentication. If it succeeds, a Windows principal is assigned to the Principal property of the UsernameToken .

To use the default UsernameTokenManager to parse UsernameToken security tokens on Windows XP and Windows 2000, the user account that the ASPNET account runs under must be given the Log on locally permission. This is because WSE calls LogonUser using the user name and password found in the UsernameToken .

When you do not want the WSE to authenticate the UsernameToken against a Windows account, derive a class from UsernameTokenManager and override the AuthenticateToken method. Then register your derived class in the configuration file using the Type attribute of the <securityTokenManager> element. For more information, see <securityTokenManager> Element.
