Subject: WebServices Authentication w/soapUI

Feedback Type: Problem

Product Area: Domino Server

Technical Area: Security

Platform: ALL

Release: 8.0.2

Reproducible: Always

Hello,

I don't know if this is indeed a soapUI problem but I cannot authenticate with a Domino WebService using the soapUI's simple Username/Password fields. The only way to authenticate is to add a header:

Authorization BASIC Base64<username:password>

But then again, soapUI is such a widely used tool that one can easily think it probably works as it should...

Can anyone shed some light on this issue? Is it Domino or soapUI?

I've tested this with a AS/400 802 and Linux/SLES 702 servers and it works the same way in both.

If possible, I don't want to explain a bunch of "semi-business/semi-tech" people how to configure soapUI to use Authorization header (and how to base64 encode) so that they can test my WebServices. :)

TIA
