In WCF with transport mode security, when the SOAP headers are sent from client to server, are the SOAP headers encrypted in NetTcpBinding by default with windows credentials?

Before migrating to WCF auth service called by SOPAUI with basic creds was ok. But when they added WCF i get the "Cannot verify security of the incomming message"
What to be able to call service?
thanks
I have a web service to consume in BizTalk which exposes both SOAP 1.1 and 1.2 endpoints and is secured with Basic Http Authentication.
I'm using the WCF-Custom adapter and trying to use SOAP 1.2.
This comparison table shows that I cannot have the combination of basic Http authentication AND SOAP 1.2 and I'll have to use 1.1 and basicHttpBinding
Will any of the other WS-* bindings allow me to do what I want? I would prefer to use SOAP 1.2 because it will, presumably*, be around longer than 1.1.
*may be misguided?
Yes, I believe you are misguided.
What that table and article is saying is that the WCF protocal wants to send the credentials securely either by having a secure transport or encrypting the message payload.
You can use basic authentication with WCF-Custom and Basic Authentication.
Set the Binding type to wsHttpBinding, under WSHttpBidingElement, Security, Transport, set the clientCredentialType to Basic.
The traffic flow for my application is 1) .Net client to 2) F5 BigIP load balancer VIP to 3) .Net WCF service node. The WCF service is using the netTcp binding with the security mode set to Transport and a Transport protectionLevel of EncryptAndSign. I need to provide the load balancer with a value it can use to route the request to a specific WCF service node. The value is dependent on the user making the request and obviously it has to be cleartext for the load balancer to read it. Is such a thing - wrapping an encrypted netTcp tarnsport payload with a cleartext header value - possible in stock WCF? If not, is there something custom I could write to do it?
I am trying to consume a third party web service, which is developed not in .NET but in some other langauge (may be in Java). I am trying to consume the service from WCF Client. But while adding Service reference it is throwing a error:
The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'. The authentication header received from the server was 'basic realm="EXTRACT-CREDENTIAL"'.
Also when I am hitting the service URL in a browser it's throwing an error as follows:
HTTP GET Requests are not supported by the broker. Please use HTTP POST instead
What could be the way to consume the service from WCF client?
Is it possible to host a WCF service in IIS, access it over HTTP and have the message body encrypted using a wsHttpBinding configuration?
Yes, any protocol that can support message security and the WS-Security standard will be capable of encrypting your messages - it's actually the default setting, too.
See Message Security in WCF for more information, and for hints about how to secure your messages using a Windows credential or a X.509 certificate as the "shared secret" between client and server to ensure encryption.
Yes.
