Hi Rhys check this out http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user <http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user&m=102224516027914&w=2> &m=102224516027914&w=2 . Similar problem But there is no good solution to it. But there is one way you can make it send the required headers. But it involves changing the Client code quite a bit. Let me know if you want such a solution. And I am not sure whether it will break other stuff in .net. Vidyanand

I am trying to get a .Net client to talk to an existing Axis service which works with java clients. Right now access to the service is controlled using a handler that checks basic authentication. At first I used the following C# client code to access the service: ResourceServices service = new ResourceServices(); service.PreAuthenticate = true; NetworkCredential myCred = new NetworkCredential("user","pass"); CredentialCache myCache = new CredentialCache(); myCache.Add(new Uri(service.Url), "Basic", myCred); service.Credentials = myCache; Result.Text = service.getUserResources(email,period); With this code the handler throws an AxisFault since it is not getting any auth information in the header. The "PreAuthenticate" seems to do nothing. I read some earlier posts which indicated that if I got the handler to return a "401" that the .net client would then send the auth header. I then made a servlet that checks if there is any auth info in the header and which forwards the request to the Axis servlet if there was or returned a 401 response if there wasn't. Again no luck. The .net client just threw an error that a 401 was returned. If anyone could help me out with this it would be much appreciated! Again, sorry if it is off topic. Thanks! RJ
