get username from Webservice

Question

How can I get the username from the webservice my Webservice is configured under Enterprise sign on authentication.

I am using the below code for webapplication Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_CT_REMOTE_USER") and I need a equivalent for webservices

Context.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_CT_REMOTE_USER"]

returns null for me

Whatq web service type are you using? ASMX web service or WCF service? How do your users authenticate against that webservice - integrated Windows Auth? Custom Auth? Forms Auth? You need to give us a bit more information here!! — marc_s, Apr 19 '10 at 04:54

This works with the later WCF services:

ServiceModel.ServiceSecurityContext.Current.WindowsIdentity.Name

It does NOT work with the classic ASMX services. For those use SSK's solution.
