Problem with combination SSL and Proxy

Hi!

Our .Net Windows Form Application accesses 2 web services (over Internet).
1 web service is configured as SSL, and 1 without.

The SSL web service methods are accessed after first setting the .Credential
object on the web service object -> Successfull.

We are now up to install our nice .Net Windows Client on the client
machines, and was now informed that the users are using a Proxy Server for
accessing Internet (Internet Options/Connections/LAN Settings/Proxy
Server/"Address" + "Port"). -> PROBLEM !

---> The web service without SSL does still work.
---> BUT the SSL web service now fail with the WebException "The request
failed with the HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.

The IIS log looks like following:

2004-08-19 09:50:51 212.247.78.36 POST /WS_CesowSecure/FC_Secure.asmx - 443

Any idéa for a nice and smooth solution?

Hi!

Anyone that has succeeded with following combination:

* Client application is a ".Net Visual Basic Windows Application"
* Client PC is behind a proxy server - needs Internet Options/Proxy settings
to access Internet.
* SSL-secured web service accessible over Internet.

I still gets the 401 error message!

Best regards,
Benjamin
