That's the issue....they refuse to disable Windows authentication...the connection worked perfectly when they did....the quote from my client:
"Windows NT Challenge/Response--in simplistic terms is the user id/password that must be authenticated. We cannot turn this off, as that is what controls your authentication (entering your user id/password) to get to the machine......This authentication must be in place, and your application must be able to find a way to make it work" Here's the CFHTTP statement I'm using: <CFHTTP URL="https://theirserver.com/theirscript.asp" METHOD="post" THROWONERROR="Yes" TIMEOUT="30" COLUMNS="#get.columnlist#" PORT="443" USERNAME="username" PASSWORD="password"> Ideas??

Just make sure to include the correct port number (443). As for the authentication, make sure that they are only using Basic Authentication. ColdFusion cannot authenticate using Digest or Windows authentication. Perhaps you could show us your CFHTTP statement?

The process works great - until they enable the login/password on their server. Is there any other method to do this transfer automatically utilizing CF? or JS? (Must use SSL and authenticate via login/password to their server.) TIA!
