Hello all,
this is problem known as dual hop. You are passing credentials (by
token) to one server, this is correct (just windows token is passed),
but you cannot pass token somewhere else on remote computer, this would
be potential security bug (program could use passed access to do
something).
Solution is as was written by Bruce Barker,
- either using basic authentication (passing user and password using
cleartext) Then you can easily use name and password for login without
troubles, but you are facing risk of network listening ..
- either kerberos network token passing - this also is not as secure as
it should be. You need to configure remote computer for using this
access in Active Directory.
- and the last passibility is easily use the same computer for two web
services - then you do not need to pass token remotely and windows can
handle this on single computer.
