Hi Craig No, I was more talking at the TCP/IP socket level. We use this method extensively due to internal and external firewalls - filtering source and destination IP, inspecting packet type - sometimes using security tokens as well authenticating the Active Directory logons.
Of course these are dedicated firewalls, so a little easier to do it.

I have seen this used with both BELogic and IIS based webservices. AFAIK you can't do this with the U2 WSD as you don't have access to the HTTP headers and besides anything other than HTTP Basic authentication becomes a pain without using external libraries. regards, Craig ************** IMPORTANT MESSAGE ***************************** This e-mail message is intended only for the addressee(s) and contains information which may be confidential.
