Axis-2 (1.4) and NTLM

[Ricky Murphy]

Hello All:

I am using Axis2-1.4 to host my services. This service is protected using NTLM authentication scheme. In one use case, I need to call this service from another service. In 'Axis 1' days, I can create a NTLM credential and passed it to my stub (generated by wsdl2java) and in the mean time provide a client.wsdd file for client to specify the transport layer so that HttpClient can be used and problem is solved. However, how would I do this in Axis2-1.4 (my first version in Axis2 series)?

I searched the internet and there were some suggestions given but none seemed to be working well, plus, all seemed to be for older versions of Axis2. The places that I went were (http://wso2.org/library/161 and http://ws.apache.org/axis2/0_94/http-transport.html and, etc.). None of them really works for me. Could any one please make some suggestions, any samples that I can leverage? Thank you.

The write-up for Axis2 1.4 Basic, Digest and NTLM Authentication hasn't changed that much.

In any event I wouldn't expect this support to go on indefinitely as WS-Security (Rampart module) is the more standardized solution for SOAP web services.
