Try using @WebContext. It works for me using JBossWS-Native 3.0.2 (which is the latest stable version). For example:@WebContext(authMethod = "BASIC", transportGuarantee=true, secureWSDLAccess = true) | @WebService | public class MyService ... { | ... | } Make sure to enable the "secureWSDLAccess" flag if you need HTTPS-only access for the published WSDL contract. I understand the "transportGuarantee" is for actual access to the service. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4170240#...
