+This shouldn't compile because the class WindowsPrincipal isn't (yet)
+part of mscorlib. This is "easy" to fix (e.g. stub) but you should be
+aware that the WindowsIdentity class is only a stub (there's no code
+in there) - so right now all WindowsIdentity properties throws
+NotImplementedException.
+
+This _may_ be easy to fix if you only require the username (string) to
+do an LDAP lookup. However this won't tell you if the user is
+authenticated.
