I am able to connect to my WCF service with the Win-form application, however i am not able to do so with my windows service. Whenever i fire open() to the proxy it throws the following error
The server has rejected the client credentials
Inner Exception: System.Security.Authentication.InvalidCredentialException: The server has rejected the client credentials.
---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The logon attempt failed

at System.ServiceModel.Channels.WindowsStreamSecurityUpgradeProvider.WindowsStreamSecurityUpgradeInitiator.OnInitiateUpgrade(Stream stream, SecurityMessageProperty& remoteSecurity)
Tried searching for the solution, but none fitting my requirements, hence posted.
Please help...
Update 1:
@A.R., Tried using
client.ClientCredentials.Windows.AllowedImpersonationLevel =
System.Security.Principal.TokenImpersonationLevel.Impersonation;
but to no avail.
Update 2:

Thanks for all your help. i got the answer after few days of some research and trial n error method :) well i know i am late to post the answer, but i think its better late than never.
So Here's the solution
i had to make some changes in my configuration files (both client & server)
On the client side i added <security>
tag as shown below
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="netTcpEndPoint" closeTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:10:00" transactionFlow="false" transferMode="Buffered" transactionProtocol="OleTransactions" hostNameComparisonMode="StrongWildcard" listenBacklog="10" maxBufferPoolSize="5242880" maxBufferSize="5242880" maxConnections="15" maxReceivedMessageSize="5242880">
<readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="5242880" maxArrayLength="16384" maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384" />
<reliableSession ordered="true" inactivityTimeout="00:10:00" enabled="false" />
<security mode="Transport">
<transport clientCredentialType="Windows" protectionLevel="EncryptAndSign" />
<message clientCredentialType="Windows" />
</security>
</binding>
</netTcpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="net.tcp://xx.xx.xx.xx:8010/WCFService.CollectorService/" binding="netTcpBinding" bindingConfiguration="netTcpEndPoint" contract="CloudAdapter.CloudCollectorService.ICollectorService" name="netTcpEndPoint">
</endpoint>
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
and also added the same tag on the server side (WCF service configuration), as shown below
<bindings>
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="myBindingForLargeData" maxReceivedMessageSize="5242880" maxConnections="10">
<readerQuotas maxDepth="64" maxStringContentLength="5242880" maxArrayLength="16384"
maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384"/>
<security mode="Transport">
<transport clientCredentialType="Windows" protectionLevel="EncryptAndSign" />
<message clientCredentialType="Windows" />
</security>
</binding>
</netTcpBinding>
</bindings>
Hope this help a person in need :)
So the KEY is to make the <security>
tag same over the client and the server configuration files.
