Jonathan,

To authenticate users you can use the WS-Security standard that is supported by CXF. With WS-Security you can choose many autentication methods including user/password (UsernameToken) or client certificates.

Hello,

I'm looking for the ability to authenticate users in soap. I don't want to use http authentication, because that would mean relying on http as transport, but when I'm using soap, I'm in the first instance independent of the transport method. I want to keep this flexibility.

On the internet, I found several things about authentication directly via soap e.g. http://www.whitemesa.com/soapauth.html

Is there a way to do this in CXF? And, what comes next is the necessity to access the login information on the server site and/or assign session ids to access these sessions in the java code.

I know I can do this with interceptors and define my own headers. But will this allow accessing the information in the java code of the service, too? At the end I can do this using a session parameter in every soap method signature, too, but I would prefer having this in a standard way integrated in the framework. (If it does exist).

Thanks in advance,
Jonathan Glaschke
