This article is very short. In the actual presentation, there was not much time to talk about this so a brief overview was done. Basically, it’s all standard WCF stuff. The idea is that the Silverlight Business Template adds logging in and supports Authentication just like an asp.net application does. It uses the DomainDataSource to do the bridging between the silverlight clientside app, and the web application. Authorization is built into the login module also so that you can assign attributes to your domainservice classes to restrict access.
