I am not sure that's required. Anyway, I figured out what the difference was. Although I said in my original message that I had anonymous access set up in the directory security settings for my web service - apparently, that was not active. After unchecking and rechecking that option, a call into the web service made on a remote machine didn't need the password and username.

Eduard Lascu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:Hello everybody, I have a Web Service that's hosted on one machine. There is a difference between calling it from the same machine or from a different machine in the network: in the second case I am prompted to enter my credentials (user name, password and domain). Is there a way to prevent this? I have set the Anonymous access with Integrated Windows authentication for this web service (if Integrated Windows authentication is not set, the Web Service is not accessible). The problem I have is that an ASP.NET client is supposed to call the Web Service in order to get a report. Could it be that the only way to do it is to pass the credentials from the Web page, along with all the parameters for the web method? And if so, where should I set the credentials? Any suggestion will be appreciated.
