Hi Sharon, and thanks for taking the time.

Well I don't have problems with delegating as such, it clearly works 
in itself; the delegated service receives the requests as expected.

I use a static handle because I need to use user trust, and I think I 
must have misunderstood the way this works. I had the idea that when I 
authenticated a user against a handle, then this authenticated handle 
would be a sort of network wide "security token" that would be 
transported around all over the place, in a sense.

What happens in my setup is that a request starts on, say, fox, as a 
request to my service on local. This is forwarded to a central server, 
hag, where it is interpreted and as a result a number of other service 
requests are sent out to other servers. I have assumed that I could - 
or should - do this using the same handle all the way, but I realise 
now that this is probably wrong.

In fact, I have since tried it with tracing turned on, and I can see 
that the message comes from hag, not from fox.
