Hi John, 
For the provider to say that using a COM+ component as the only method to
access their web service sounds odd to me considering web services use SOAP
which is an open standard primary designed for cross-platform
interoperability and platform independence. 

Having said that if the web service was written to adhere to the SOAP
specification you should be able to connect to it using either a web
reference in .Net or you could create a proxy class using WSDL.EXE.

Otherwise you could try configuring the properties for the COM+ package to
run using a set user account/identity.

See if that helps,

Subject: [aus-dotnet] WebService to SSL WebService

Hi All,

I have an external (third party) WebService that requires certificates for
authentication that I am trying to access from a (standard - all defaults)
Visual Studio .Net WebService using C#.

The provider of the secure WebService has given us an option of creating a
COM+ component as the only method of connecting to their web service. I have
since created the COM component and all works as we hoped it would.

Problem is that the machine that has this COM component registered needs to
be logged in to give access to the methods in the COM component. This is not
an acceptable solution for us, which leads me to my question.

Is there some other way of connecting the (standard) web service to the SSL
secured web service without some kind of intermediary COM component.

Thanks in advance
JohnB
