i all,

I have a web service in a Windows 2003 Server machine and ASP.NET 2.0. The
website has windows integrated security so that, in order to allow domain
users to connect to it, I add permissions using Front Page Server extensions.

What about calling the web service over the Internet? do I need to create a
special account on the machine and allow access to the website?

Do you have an example of calling a web service under these circumstances
using C# or VB.NET?

Thanks
Jaime

For starters: Seems like the initial scheme of using Windows authentication
would have to change to... In other words - opening it up to outside users
would require the domain user access to change too...
