Hi..

I am currently writing a manager that creates Windows Schedules remotely via. web services. I have just a few questions. What is the best way to Authenticate incoming requests (and remember the SOAP request can come from non .net clients i.e. J2EE)? I need to encrypt these SOAP messages - what is the common practise for this?

Regards,
Arno
