Using NTLM (Windows) authentication with RIA services

by Christoph Herold 3. August 2010 14:38

When creating a new Silverlight business application using RIA services, it will automatically be configured to use Forms authentication. If you are developing an intranet application with single sign-on, you can easily switch the web.config to use Windows auth instead of forms. In my case, authentication still timed out, because the server still tried to access a database. You also have to disable the RoleManager and Profile services in the web.config to get Windows authentication running. This is a nice way to create out-of-browser intranet applications and still have single sign-on.
