Web Service - Authentication to Web Users

Ravi_Thakkar

Hi all Experts,

Acc. to my knowledge, Web Services provodes windows authentication.
So, on developing the web application whether we need to customize the authentication part or it will be handled automatically by the Web Services' windows authentication?

Please mension the proper method.
Thanks in Advance.

The service have two properties - "Credentials" and "UseDefaultCredentials". Depends on how you set them. If you set UseDefaultCredentials to true, the application will take the account under which is running and use it as credentials for connecting to the WebService.

Hi, Kine,

Thanks for your reply.
I got your point. But, I need some detailed document related to Web Services and Credentials.

Please, suggest me any of the help links or posts or materials.

Thanks in Adv.

Just look into MSDN help about credentials. E.g. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa374789(VS.85).aspx

This works for me from c# ...

<webservice>.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
<webservice>.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("<user>", "<password>", "<domain>");

Because you entered just part of the URL. The automatic URL detection failed on the parentheses, I repaired the URL manually in my previous post... 8)

?? Not sure of your meaning.

It was a very simple c# example. Replace <webservice> with your webservice and <user>, <password>, <domain> with your actual credentials.

Thanks to all.
My problem has been solved.

We can do by both the ways. I wasted so much time for it.

1) We can block the system generated Dialog for the authentication by some settings on IIS.
And then by making our own Login Page.
2) By using System Generated Dialog, created by some settings on IIS.

Thanks.
