Hi,

Even though samples have the same password callback handler for both the
client and server, in a real world client and server should have
separate password callbacks. With the current implementation client
doesn't even need a password callback class. He can just say the
following.

options.setUserName("dimuthul");
options.setPassword("secret");

The key usage of Username token for plain password would be
WSPasswordCallback.UNKNOWN. At the server-side  you can always check
what type of a callback.

switch (passwordCallback.getUsage()) {

        case WSPasswordCallback.UNKNOWN:
        ........
        break;  
......
.......
}

Thank you,
Dimuthu
