authentication

I like to use wcf (windows communication foundation) with windows authentication.

Do I need Active directory for this purpose? How the server knows about the identity of the client?

If someone can found out the pass of the client that is using the wcf services, can he create the same user name on different computer and use the password to access the wcf services ?
