Hi
you need to give windows authentication for run web-services.

The following line is given in the Web Config file
<authentication mode="Forms"/>

but when I run the web page from VS it does not ask for the Userid & Password.

Howdy,

<authentication mode="Forms"/> is fine for the IIS settings, but you'll also have to edit the URL to the correct form (standard IIS is login.aspx NAV = SignIn.aspx). For the rest is NAV authentication (which is sometimes painful). Therefore the whole rest needs to be equal (NAV service tier needs to run in NAVUSERPASSWORD, Settings in web.config also because the web components connect also to the service tier.
