Hi all, I'm trying to consume a web service that I can use on the internet
via browser but the Visual Studio can't find it. Or that's what it says.

I get the message the request failed with HTTP status 407: authenticationn
required.

Where do I write my credentials??, who is telling me about the
authentication, my proxy or the web service???


TIA
 
That's generally your proxy server. You can use a packet capture tool like
Netmon to see where the responses come from. In general, whenever I have
seen the message you are getting, it is from the proxy. Then IE seems to
send the NTLM credentials to the proxy, and everything goes through (this is
just in troubleshooting IE problems - I have no idea what you would do in
code to get past this).
