Can I have a WCF application that has two endpoints. One with Windows Security and one without?

Question

I have read several posts (here on SO and on MSDN) that supposedly show how I can have two endpoints for my WCF service. But and I can't seem to get this to work. I tried what they show, but it still does not work.

Here is what I have now:

<system.serviceModel>
  <services>
    <service name="MyServiceProject.MyServiceClass">
      <endpoint address="MyService.svc"
                  binding="basicHttpBinding"
                  bindingName="normalBasicHttpBinding"
                  contract="MyContractsProject.IMyServiceClass" />

        <endpoint address="SecuredMyService.svc"
                  binding="basicHttpBinding"
                  bindingName="secureBasicHttpBinding"
                  contract="MyContractsProject.IMyServiceClass" />
    </service>
  </services>
  <bindings>
      <basicHttpBinding>
          <binding name="normalBasicHttpBinding" maxBufferSize="5242880"
                    maxBufferPoolSize="5242880"
                    maxReceivedMessageSize="5242880">
              <readerQuotas maxArrayLength="16384"
                            maxStringContentLength="5242880" />
          </binding>

        <binding name="secureBasicHttpBinding" maxBufferSize="5242880"
                    maxBufferPoolSize="5242880"
                    maxReceivedMessageSize="5242880">
          <security mode="Transport">
            <transport clientCredentialType="Windows" />
          </security>
          <readerQuotas maxArrayLength="16384"
                        maxStringContentLength="5242880" />
        </binding>
      </basicHttpBinding>
  </bindings>
  <behaviors>
      <serviceBehaviors>
          <behavior>
              <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
              <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
          </behavior>
      </serviceBehaviors>
  </behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>

Variations on this that I have tried:

• Taking out the security
• Having the first address be blank and the second just "secure" then going to http://MyNormalEndpoint/MyService.svc/secure (was blank and WCF Storm could not connect)
• Adding a <Host> section that is a hard reference to the deploy path. (I don't want to do this as my service has to deploy to several different locations. But it did not work anyway)
• Having just one endpoint (the secure one)
• Using two different binding types (wsHttpBinding).

None of these has worked.

And now calls to my normal service are returning 404. (So I have messed something up). If you want to see my original (working) config it can be found here.

Thanks for any help.

Are you sure you have proper formats for address
