Body
We currently support several WCF services running in a load balanced environment. In the past, we have used wsHttpBinding and set establishSecurityContext to false to allow the service to work properly with our load balancer. An issue we have ran into is that the wsHttpBinding encrypts the return results by default and, apparently, cannot be turned off. This causes issues with the <a href="http://www.riverbed.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Riverbed</a> compression appliance we have on our network - i.e. the encrypted data does not compress very well (or at all). Now we're attempting to make use of the basicHttpBinding since it does not encrypt the data by default. We have two requirements: <ol> <li>Work with the load balancer - this appears to be possibly by using setting the keepAliveEnabled to false. This requires the use of a custom binding. For example: <pre><code><customBinding> <binding name="NewBinding0"> <httpTransport authenticationScheme="Ntlm" **keepAliveEnabled="false"** /> </binding> </customBinding> </code></pre></li> <li>Passes User Credentials - this appears to be possible by setting the security mode to TransportCredentialOnly. This is available with the basicHttpBinding. For example: <pre><code><basicHttpBinding> <binding name="NewBinding1"> <security **mode="TransportCredentialOnly"** /> </binding> </basicHttpBinding> </code></pre></li> </ol> So now for my actual question :-)... How/Is it possible to combine the above two requirements into a single custom binding? What is the equivalent of #2 above for a custom binding? How can I get it to pass the user credentials? Thanks!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
