Hi Suzy,   You would need the support of Basic Authentication in your webservice.   Please refer to following links to get the information on how to enable basic authentication in AXIS.   http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg04657.html http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/ws-sec1.html http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=24600   Thanks Bhuvan From: Suzy Fynes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 20, 2004 2:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Web Service Security Hi,   Can anyone tell me the best approach to take for securing a web services server? Its set up using java and I’ve been currently looking at xws-security but it seems to causing more trouble than anything else. Does anyone know if this is the best approach or is there another option. At the moment the security level needed would be simply just to have each client login before accessing the deployed service on server.     Thanks, Suzy Fiorano MailServer All incoming and outgoing mails are scanned for Virus http://www.fiorano.com
