Web service request fails

    I know this is an access control issue but don't understand where the failure occurs.

    I need to use ReportService2005.listItems() (among other methods) from an external ColdFusion server. I get a 401 error due to insufficient rights (any method call generates the same error). When I use SSIS or C# to make the web services calls I can establish credentials using System.Net. This is, of course, unavailable in a "raw" SOAP call from a non .NET environment.

    I've granted directory permission and ACL rights for the anonymous IUSR... to ResportServer web site and directories. This problem precedes any access control issues associated with report items. I can't get that FAR! I assume I am oblivious to the obvious solution.

    Any suggestions?

    Have you tried predefining the web service (something done on the CF server apparently).  Looks like you can get Basic authentication going, not sure if the windows authentication will go.  Maybe this and this could point you in the right direction.

    Cheers,
