Remoting Authentication Configuration changes in Beta2

There are config setting changes for Tcp channel authentication in .net framework 2.0 Beta2. Here is a sample server configuration, Note that secure="true" gives a setting of TokenImpersonationLevel.Identify and ProtectionLevel.EncryptAndSign:

<configuration>
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application name="BVTServer">
<service>
<wellknown mode="SingleCall" type="Factory, server" objectUri="Factory.soap" />
</service>
<channels>
<channel ref="tcp" port="8000" secure="true" impersonate="true" protectionLevel="EncryptAndSign" />
</channels>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>
</configuration>

Here is the corresponding client side config:

<configuration>
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application>
<client url="tcp://localhost:3300/BVTServer">
<activated type="SimpleServer, server"/>
</client>
<channels>
<channel ref="tcp" secure="true" tokenImpersonationLevel="Impersonation" protectionLevel="EncryptAndSign" />
</channels>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>
</configuration>

Another change in Beta2 is that the client principal now flows in Thread.CurrentPrincipal.
