Hello

I want to map WSE X509Certificate object to Active Directory account using
classes from System.DirectoryServices in .NET Framework. I'm looking for
a code sample doing this with DirectorySearcher or some other classes.

To authenticate X509Certificate against AD I believe I need to override
AuthenticateToken method in X509SecurityTokenManager class. And I
believe the only way to achieve the goal is to access AD in
AuthenticateToken method and map X509Certificate to AD account in this
method using DirectoryServices.

I wasn't able to find an example on the net.

I would appreciate any help.

Regards,
Marcin Belczewski
