Yeah, that's pretty much what I'm looking for. That paper you referenced...well, that's pretty much how I found out about WS-Security. I found it a few days ago and was hoping that someone had done a cursory implementation.
I may end up having to try to extend Axis, but I'm hoping to not have to do that...at least not yet. Were I to get more funding from DoE...now, that would be another question entirely! :-) I had heard the Globus 3 toolkit was supposed to go alpha soon, like January. Anyone else hear about this?

Globus 3 is actually called Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA) and is built on web services. What is more OGSA has a proposed security architecture based on WS-Security.
