WCF hosted within ASP.NET application and Windows Authentication?

I have an asp.net 3.5 application that contains an Ajax-Enabled WCF service. I enabled windows authentication enabled for the application "OARInventory", the WCF services are returning:

Security settings for this service require 'Anonymous' Authentication but it is not enabled for the IIS application that hosts this service

enter image description here

What configuration are needed to make this service run under windows authentication? My web.config:

<system.serviceModel>
    <behaviors>
      <endpointBehaviors>
        <behavior name="Treasury.IRS.HCTC.OARInventory.Services.IVOOARInventoryServiceAspNetAjaxBehavior">
          <enableWebScript />
        </behavior>
      </endpointBehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" />
    <services>
      <service name="Treasury.IRS.HCTC.OARInventory.Services.IVOOARInventoryService">
        <endpoint address="" behaviorConfiguration="Treasury.IRS.HCTC.OARInventory.Services.IVOOARInventoryServiceAspNetAjaxBehavior" binding="webHttpBinding" contract="Treasury.IRS.HCTC.OARInventory.Services.IVOOARInventoryService" />
      </service>
    </services>
  </system.serviceModel>

have a look at this: codeproject.com/Articles/36289/… – Donal
I read that article, but its an example of WCF application...not wcf hosted within an asp.net. – Chaka
but the client of the wcf service needs to be configured to use windows authentication too. What is the client of the WCF service? Is it the asp.net app? – Donal
Its just asp.net, no client. – Chaka
I made a screenshot of my setup...wcf is used a DAL my asp.net thru an ajax calls. – Chaka

Ok figured it out...for anyone interested, just set authentication to your service folder to anonymous authentication.
