Calling IIS web page from java (that is deployed in Weblogic) using Windows security

[get started]

I am having trouble calling a IIS webpage, which enables Windows security. The code works fine in stand alone Java application, but not after deploying to weblogic.

Here is the sample code:

String auth = domain + "\\" + userName ":" + password;
String encodedAuth = new BASE64Encoder().encode(auth.getBytes());
URL url = new URL(serviceURL);
URLConnection yc = url.openConnection();
yc.setRequestProperty ("Authorization", "Basic " + encodedAuth);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(yc.getInputStream()));

How do we specify windows authentication? Is it the correct way? Thanks,

I don't think URLConnection supports Windows Security. If that's the same as NTLM, then check out HttpClient - it supports that.

where do I specify domain name? this is only accepting username and password?

Try "domain\user" for your user name.

[get started]

HttpMethodBase method = null;
try {
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
client.getState().setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY,
new NTCredentials(userName, pwd, host, domain) );
System.out.println(httpServiceURL);

method = new GetMethod(httpServiceURL);
method.setDoAuthentication( true );
int status = client.executeMethod(method);
System.out.println(status + "\n" + method.getResponseBodyAsString());
}

This works fine on stand alone java application, but when I deploy it to Weblogic.. it just hangs at GetMethod. No exception, nothing..
