Why there's no Authentication.Windows package?

[John0King]

There's a Microsoft.Windows.Compatibility nuget package now, Can we build a asp.net core native Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.Windows now ? or that's some thing must impelement in the Server (eg.IIS,Kestrel,HttpSys) ?

[Eilon]

It doesn't exist because currently it's supported only with IIS and HttpSys, where there are options to turn it on. It's not currently supported in Kestrel, but we are tracking that feature request in #4662 .

@Eilon

It's not currently supported in Kestrel

Could you answer my last question : or that's some thing must impelement in the Server (eg.IIS,Kestrel,HttpSys) ?

I see the windows authentication is a module in IIS , Can it just be a authentication MiddleWare in Asp.NetCore when it's possible ?

service.AddAuthentication().AddWindows(WindowsAuthenticationOption);

...

app.UseAuthentication() ;

[Eilon]

Yes in theory it could be, and that's what the other issue is tracking.
