Ok, in a nutshell here is the dilemma I am faced with. I have a customer who works with a 3rd party vendor. This vendor hosts all of their data. We are rebuilding their website and have to integrate with the data on the 3rd party's server. I've gotten the vendor to agree to build webservices and provide me access to them. They obliged and set them up using .net on a Win2003 server running IIS6. We're all good so far. They gave me access to the webservices and even provided me with a way to test the webservices within the system, some nice built in tools...
The problem, they used IIS's "Integrated Windows authentication" to protect the webservices. As far as my testing has shown, I can't validate a login against them. I re-created the problem on one of the web servers I control, by setting it's Directory Security up to "Integrated Windows authentication" and sure enough, same problem. If I lower it to "Basic authentication (password is sent in clear text)" CFHTTP and CFINVOKE have no problem getting passed it. Is there anyway I can get CF to authenticate when IIS is using this type of security? I dont care which way I have to go (CFHTTP or CFINVOKE) or I'm will to explore other CF methods. I have to be able to access these webservices and I don't know for sure if I am going to be able to talk them into lowering the security. Despite the fact we are going over SSL and I'm willing to be locked down by IP address. Anyone been through this? I have pictures of the IIS menu in question. The first one shows the security set to "Basic authentication (password is sent in clear text)" (Working) and the second one is of "Integrated Windows authentication" (no worky) http://azcfug.app02.i-sites.com/IIS%5FProblem/ Thanks All =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:304016 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
