I'm afraid I don't quite understand your follow-up question.

Subject: Re: How to allow Users in Active Directory to use the the WCF
Service from Compact Framework?
Hi Jeff Hopper,
Thanks for your response.I have worked with the certificate. I just
want
to know is there any way to allow the WCF service to only some users
(windows). In case if I need to specify user name and password in client
side(device client ) , what are the ways to autheticate the user?
Thanks,
Supriya

You haven't provided many details on your client or server applications,
but you might want to check out

Since AD users don't actually have a way to authenticate on a device as
they do on the desktop, this will likely require some coding on both the
client (device app accepts and passes on credentials) and server (WCF
service authenticates the user).
