Build an Active STS using WCF in .net 4.5

I have a scenario whereby i need to build a WCF service to provide custom authentication to 3rd parties non-web application connecting in an "Active" mode - i.e. i cannot present a web login page.

The login mechanism is also custom (i.e. not necessarily username/password), and so i cannot use ADFS or ACS.

I have read up on building active STS using WCF, but they mostly relate to .NET 3.5 and not much has been written around using .NET 4.5 since WIF has been integrated into the framework.

I have read Examples of how to a STS in .Net 4.5 using WCF but it doesn't seem to fit my scenario.

Any pointers appreciated.

Maybe you want to have a look at

http://thinktecture.github.com/Thinktecture.IdentityServer.v2/

This is an open source STS that includes active endpoints.
