Just going to chime in that I'm having the same problem with my own implementation, despite following the documentation exactly. Even sending the exact header that Tom linked to, "OAuth oauth_nonce="QP70eNmVz8jvdPevU3oJD2AfF7R7odC2XJcn4XlZJqk", oauth_callback="http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A3005%2Fthe_dance %2Fprocess_callback%3Fservice_provider_id%3D11", oauth_signature_method="HMAC-SHA1", oauth_timestamp="1272323042", oauth_consumer_key="GDdmIQH6jhtmLUypg82g", oauth_signature="8wUi7m5HFQy76nowoCThusfgB%2BQ%3D", oauth_version="1.0"", I'm still getting 401 Unauthorized returns from the server. The same thing happens when I try to use an existing library, which is why I turned to trying to make one myself to figure out what's causing this error.
I've got my own post on this group with further details into my specific problem, but getting an answer to this one would help me as well.
