If you're using the stock HTTP transport, this can be enforced using HTTP
headers and basic authentication.
Add a handler to your request flow which checks the username. If null,
raise an AxisFault with the fault code set to "Server.Unauthenticated".
This will send a 401 response (authentication required) back to the client.
Once the client sends a request with basic authentication credentials, AXIS
will populate the username and password for you.

Subject: Adding header info to WSDL
Hi,
Is it possible to specify header parameters in a web service's WSDL ?
Specifically, I want
to ensure that a client sends the following elements in a SOAP header:
<authentication>
<username></username>
<password></password>
</authentication>
Can this be enforced in the WSDL?
Many thanks
Sam
