I am trying to load an XML file using 'Load' method on a
XmlDocument object.

xmlDocument.Load("http://localhost/Test.xml");

In return I am getting an exeption; "The remote server
returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.".

And what's serving up the XML? Does it expect authorization of some
kind? Check whether it's actually getting the request, or whether it's
being proxied somehow.
 
All I can see in the log file is: 18:15:49 127.0.0.1
GET /Parsers/Ess/1.0.0.0/Map.xml 401

Right. So it's getting to the right machine - you now need to look at
your configuration to find out why the request is being rejected.

I suspect that XmlDocument.Load doesn't use Windows authentication. At
least, it's certainly worth trying the whole shebang without any
authentication at the server side, and see if that works.

Yes. From the browser it works fine

Well, use a network analyser and find out what difference there is
between what .NET does and what the browser does.
