Has anyone used a webservice against webfocus running with single signon? All my attempts result in a login failure.

I am building a VB .NET program using communicates with WebFOCUS via webservices.

The first step is to add a WebReference. The second is use it logon.

EX:
logon = wfs.WebFocusLogOn("fpimentel", "fake_password_here_real_one_in_program", "fpimentel", "fake_password_here_real_one_in_program")


The above fails everytime if I have WebFOCUS set to Trusted Authentication. I have tried every combination of passwords, but they all fail.

It does work if I set Authentication to internal, but I can not do this in our production environment.

7.1.6 was the release where we added support for Basic Authentication in Web Services.
Are you trusted to Managed Reporting through the REMOTE_USER variable?
