Hi! I need a Soap Client in Java to access WebServices on a SharePoint Server using Active Directory with Kerberos. We definately do not want the software to pop up for user:password and cannot specify it because the software is going to be used on many different accounts with different rules/rights. Using urlconnect works fine because it somehow grabs the stuff from windows. Using the service with axis does not work (401). I searched around the web how to make Axis work the way I want but it wont. Is the only way to fulfill the task to run a proxy server using urlconnect and specifying this proxy to Axis? That is not a very good solution. Even when I use random port and a random password for security and only open the socket as long as its needed it still is open for a moment (not really a security problem but still not a satisfieing solution... Can someone tell me a way to make Axis authenticate with the server using the current credentials? Thank you in advance!
