RE: accessing .net webservices which needs client authentication

[Kellogg, Richard]

The basic web services includes with the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 does NOT include support for WS-Security.  I believe the the recently announced

Web Services Enhancements for Microsoft .NET does include support.  Please see http://microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=06255A94-2635-4D29-A90C-28B282993A41&displaylang=en for more information.  Please be advised you would have to deploy this supplemental package to your clients.  Microsoft considers this package an early release and makes no statements regarding long term support.

 

Be sure to check out MSDN and IBM AlphaWorks.  I seem to recall an article on the subject.  If you get an example working, please forward so others may benefit from your experiences.

 

Thanks,

Rick Kellogg

.NET 1.1 Web services supports WS-Security which means that you also

have the option of passing from AXIS client a WS-Security <PasswordToken>

as part of the SOAP Security header.

 

However, AXIS does not support the ability for applications to set the Password

token and add it to the SOAP header.

 

I believe IBM version of AXIS does support this functionality.

I got a .p12 certificate file from the .net web service developer. I
don't know any approach.

Has somebody a code example.

Thank you
