    copied!<p>I am currently implementing a Federated Authentication solution using: A passive STS for issuing tokens, a Website hosting a Silverlight application and WCF services for the Silverlight App.</p> <p>So far I am able:</p> <ul> <li>Get redirected to the STS</li> <li>Login and get redirected to the Website</li> <li>Display the claims on the website by accessing <code>HttpContext.Current.User.Identity as IClaimsIdentity;</code></li> </ul> <p>on the web.config of the Website, I have added the two WIF modules needed (under IIS 7)</p> <pre><code>&lt;modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"&gt; &lt;add name="WSFederationAuthenticationModule" type="Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web.WSFederationAuthenticationModule, Microsoft.IdentityModel, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" preCondition="managedHandler"/&gt; &lt;add name="SessionAuthenticationModule" type="Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web.SessionAuthenticationModule, Microsoft.IdentityModel, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" preCondition="managedHandler"/&gt; &lt;/modules&gt; </code></pre> <p>I have also configured the Microsoft.IdentityModel section of the web.config to use my own implementation of ClaimsAuthenticationManager and ClaimsAthorizationManager.</p> <pre><code>&lt;service name="Rem.Ria.PatientModule.Web.WebService.PatientService"&gt; &lt;claimsAuthenticationManager type ="Rem.Infrastructure.WIF.RemClaimsAuthenticationManager"/&gt; &lt;claimsAuthorizationManager type ="Rem.Infrastructure.WIF.RemClaimsAuthorizationManager"/&gt; &lt;/service&gt; </code></pre> <p>My ClaimsAuthenticationMAnager is simply setting the Thread.CurrentPrincipal is a valid Principal is provided.</p> <pre><code>class RemClaimsAuthenticationManager : ClaimsAuthenticationManager { public override IClaimsPrincipal Authenticate ( string resourceName, IClaimsPrincipal incomingPrincipal ) { if ( incomingPrincipal.Identity.IsAuthenticated ) { Thread.CurrentPrincipal = incomingPrincipal; } return incomingPrincipal; } } } </code></pre> <p>The problem is that when my ClaimsAuthorizationManager is called, the context.Principal.Identity does not contain a valid Identity with Claims, and neither does the Thread.CurrentPrincipal.</p> <p>Any ideas?</p>
