WCF Interop with WSE2.0

I'm attempting, with great difficulty, to have an WCF client communicate with a WSE 2.0. The wse service requires UserName token for authentication and it would appear that this is not possible over an unsecured channel.

I have configured the following custom bindings:

<customBinding>
        <binding name="wse2Binding">
          <textMessageEncoding messageVersion="Soap11WSAddressingAugust2004" />
          <security authenticationMode="UserNameOverTransport">
            <secureConversationBootstrap authenticationMode="UserNameOverTransport" />
          </security>
          <httpTransport authenticationScheme="Digest"/>
        </binding>
      </customBinding>
    </bindings>
    <client>
      <endpoint address="http://ecareweb/eCareMessaging1_1/Notification.asmx"
        binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="wse2Binding"
        contract="NotificationSrv.NotificationSoap" name="NotificationSoap1" />
    </client>

Do you know of a work-around for this problem

Thanks in advance

WCF does not allow you by default, but if you have exceptional circumstances you can still do it. Here is some sample code for using ClearUserNameBinding

WCF will not let you send username/password over an HTTP connection. If you have control over the service side I would suggest adding an HTTPS endpoint so you can use transport level security.
