[jboss-user] [JBoss Web Services] - WS Security Basics

Ian Mitchell [http://community.jboss.org/people/imitchell] created the discussion "WS Security Basics" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/567514#567514 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, I'm just getting into JBoss WS security (and security in general for that matter) and I have some basic questions to get me going in the right direction.  The questions are not so much about configuration but more about client/server interaction. When a client invokes a WS method, how do the user credentials get passed along with the method request?  I have not seen that specified in WSDLs so is that some SOAP magic between the client/server? The credentials would have to be sent with each ensuing WS method call as well, correct? I know this is basic stuff but I just need a mental shove here. Thanks. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/567514#567514] Start a new discussion in JBoss Web Services at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
