Joe,

This isn’t really a lot to go on.    Does the soap endpoint that you are 
connecting to have a published WSDL?   Does the WSDL provide a WS-Policy 
definition that describes the security requirements?   If so, things are 
significantly easier than if it doesn’t.    With the WS-Policy stuff, it should 
just be a matter of configuring properties on the client (java code, spring 
config, etc…) for the stuff the policy requires (keystrokes, key aliases, 
etc…).    If the WSDL doesn’t have a policy, things are quite a bit more 
complex.  In that case, you’d have to figure out what the security requirements 
are and configure in appropriate actions onto a set of WSS4J interceptors.   

Anyway, start with looking at the WSDL and see what information is there and 
then we can figure out the next step.
