Problem getting HTTP Basic Authentication working

[David Robison]

I'm having trouble getting HTTP basic authentication working. I've used 
the wsdl2java compiler to compile a 3rd party wsdl. Here is my client code:

       try {
           ABCWS mbsSoapService = new ABCWSLocator();
           URL serviceURL = new 
URL("http://abc.com/ABCinterface/mbs.asmx";);
           ABCWSSoap mbsSoap = mbsSoapService.getABCWSSoap(serviceURL);
           ((ABCWSSoapStub)mbsSoap).setUsername("orci");
           ((ABCWSSoapStub)abcSoap).setPassword("orci");
           SerialResponse rsp = abcSoap.startSerialStream(encoderId, 
"127.0.0.1", myGUID.toString(), portCode);
           macAddress = rsp.getMacAddress();
           LOG.info("startSerialStream result = " + rsp.getCode());
           if (rsp.getCode() != 0) throw new 
IOException("startSerialStream error: " + rsp.getCode());
       } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
           LOG.error("Error connecting to SOAP service: " + e);
       } catch (ServiceException e) {
           LOG.error("Error connecting to SOAP service: " + e);
       } catch (Exception e) {
           LOG.error("Error connecting to SOAP service: " + e);
       }

When the call is made, the following is some of the debug:
DEBUG org.apache.axis.transport.http.HTTPSender  - POST /MBSinterface 
HTTP/1.0
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Accept: application/soap+xml, application/dime, multipart/related, text/*
User-Agent: Axis/1.2beta3
Host: mbs03.trafficland.com
Cache-Control: no-cache
Pragma: no-cache
SOAPAction: "schemas.rccny.com/MBS/StopSerialStream"
Content-Length: 375

however, the server responds with
AxisFault
 faultCode: {http://xml.apache.org/axis/}HTTP
 faultSubcode:
 faultString: (401)Access Denied
 faultActor:
 faultNode:
 faultDetail:
    {}:return code:  401
Any ideas? Thanks in advanced,
