Integrated Authentication for dotet SetupActions

Guys,

Is there any reason why the SetupActions Integrated Windows Authentication is set to Empty?

I just ran a test, I had to change the code in a few other locations, but I got it working in Integrated Auth mode.  Can I create a patch for this, it will be helpful to have use this mode for the Express Installation guide.

I don't have strong feeling on this either way.

If it is just for the setup then I don't see a problem. It could simplify the setup as well since you wouldn't have to add the sa password to app.config but you would still need to verify/update dbserver value.

The change I was planning is only related to the SetupActions class for windows auth, there's code in there now that isn't implemented.  You'd still have the DB setup for SQL auth, it just keeps you from having to know the sa password.

The services would still use the SQL Auth with user trade/yyy.

I think SQL AuthN is a holdover from the original StockTrader that was patterned after and using the same functionality as the IBM StockTrade 6.1 applicaton. We may not need it for setup but for the current application we need it to run the app.

I don't see why the setup couldn't use integrated authentication but we will still need to have SQL AuthN turned on since the services are not hosted in IIS with a definite user id and so should probably still use SQL AuthN. The alternative to SQL AuthN would be to make sure that the user that is running the services (most likely administrator since we are running in an elevated command prompt) is added to SQL as a user in the database.

I don't think we should change the application to use integrated authentication because that would prohibit some of the other implementations from calling the SQL Server database.

WSO2 stocktrader uses SQL authentication. If that is not changed, +1 for
changing the setup.

Ben clarified that he is just going to make the change for the setup and that it will still work with SQL authentication so we will not be forcing any changes, just enabling a simplified setup when running as an administrator on Windows. This will maintain interoperability at the database level if desired.

Does forcing integrated security cause a problem if we have a situation of WSO2 or Sun's version running on Linux and wanting to talk to SQL Server?  I think the original StockTrader showed interop at the database level as well, but I don't know how important it is that we maintain that for Stonehenge (since WS-* interop is the main purpose here).

I would like WSO2 input/agreement before we change it.

Go for it. The dotnet ST is supposed to run in Integrated Auth mode so why not make it easy.

Guys,

Is there any reason why the SetupActions Integrated Windows Authentication is set to Empty?

I just ran a test, I had to change the code in a few other locations, but I got it working in Integrated Auth mode.  Can I create a patch for this, it will be helpful to have use this mode for the Express Installation guide.
