This is a tough choice you always have to make . Choice 1 - Use fast binary tcp connection , in which case you have to do the security yourself. eg send a hash of the userID with every request if you want high security.
Choice 2 - use non binary connection and .NET can do it for you . EJB 1.3+ spec uses something similar to Choice 2 , but binary tcp connections can send information twice as fast. And getting a 100% performance gain on bottleneck always sways my choices over nice code , but it depends on your requirements.

Is there a standard way for securing a remoting connection so a remoted object can obtain the users identity/principal from the client/consumer of the remoted object - In java terms something along the lines of the "Common Secure Interoperability" features of the EJB 1.3+ spec.
