Hi Toshiyuki,
Thank you for the approach. I need one more clarification from
you. The client will be sending authentication infomration in the soap
header. Could you let me know how this can be sent by client. I have
written a client which sends this information by using
SOAPHeaderElement(nameObj). Is this the way to proceed.Regards, Shobha Rani J > -----Original Message----- > From: Toshiyuki Kimura [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 5:05 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: SOAP request redirection > > > Hi Shobha, > > In my last mail, I only provided the easiest way that > I believe.
