I have a P2P .Net Service that is connecting to another machines P2P .Net Service using Sockets. I would like both of these services to pass along a username and password so each P2P service can authenticate against the local security list. (win2k OS) 1) After getting the username and password from the other machine, what method/WIN API can I call to authenticate the remote user? 2) I’m apparently going to have to store the username and password somewhere on the remote machine. Any Ideas about the best (most secure) way of doing this. a. Encrypt it to disk? b. Registry? Thanks in adance, Brad Cooper
