    Can someone please explain authorization process and setup

    I have the following scenario

    * a webserver where I have set up an asp.net webapplication
    I have set it to basic authorization only, and on file level I have default permissions + an account I created for this application (mydomain\mywsapp_account) It is a domain account in the active directory


    * I have an asp.net application on another webserver where the user has to identify himself using his domain username and password. I have set this web app to basic authentication and on file level I have added the AD group "myapp_users". The user cant proceed unless he/she belongs to this group.

    Now the tricky part is, how should I call the webservice from within my application??? I need somehow to pass the credentials of the "mydomain\mywsapp_account" from the calling app to the webservice. I could hard code this in the app by creating a new network credentials object, but thats not good.

    How should you have set up this? Im a bit lost here.

    Oh another thing... On my web application in IIS I have set authentication to integrated windows, but when I call

    CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials I get an empty object?? Why??
