how to use roles - Method is only supported if the user name parameter matches the user name in the current Windows Identity - wcf

Question

I have managed to get windows authentication working with a service call using this .config:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

</configuration>
In the service I'm able to see who is logged in using:
OperationContext.Current.ServiceSecurityContext.PrimaryIdentity;
I'd like to check the user is a member of a particular role, so I have tried enabling the roleManager thusly:
<roleManager enabled="true" defaultProvider="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.WindowsTokenRoleProvider" applicationName="/" />
</providers>
</roleManager>
Then checking the role using Roles
Roles.IsUserInRole(#"DOMANIN\Role");
or:
var id = OperationContext.Current.ServiceSecurityContext.PrimaryIdentity;
Roles.IsUserInRole(id.Name, #"DOMANIN\Role");
But both throw exception:
"Method is only supported if the user name parameter matches the user name in the current Windows Identity."
Also if there is an attribute to check roles, that would be ideal as it would throw the right exception rather than me handling it myself.
Update
I just tried this:
if (Roles.RoleExists(#"DOMANIN\Role"))
and got a different exception:
"The configured Role Provider (WindowsTokenRoleProvider) relies upon Windows authentication to determine the groups that the user is allowed to be a member of. ASP.NET Role Manager cannot be used to manage Windows users and groups. Please use the SQLRoleProvider if you would like to support custom user/role assignment." Which I will Google, just thought it might help anyone who's looking at this for me.

Answer 1

The exceptions are telling you that you can only check the Role of the currently logged in User. To get a list of those in String form, this should work for you:
Roles.GetRolesForUser()
But, you cannot get the Roles for some arbitrary user like you can when using Forms authentication.

Answer 2

[PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Role = #"DOMAIN\Role")]
public string DoWork()
{
//user is authenticated and in the role
}
Still would be interested if any one can shed light on the exceptions.
This works even with out the roleManager enabled so clearly a different mechanism at work.
