) : String;

Parameters

token
The UsernameToken to authenticate.

Return Value

The password of the authenticated UsernameToken .

Exceptions

Exception type	Condition
SecurityFault	The Password property of token is null.

Remarks

The default implementation authenticates the token parameter against a local Windows account or an Active Directory using the Username and Password properties of the UsernameToken. If the authentication is successful, the Principal property of the UsernameToken is set to a System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal that represents the authenticated user.

WSE calls the VerifyToken method for each UsernameToken contained in an incoming SOAP message after it has been deserialized. The VerifyToken method calls the AuthenticateToken method to get the password for the user. The AuthenticateToken method verifies the user name and password in the SOAP message by calling the LogonUser Win32 function.
