calling a ws thru a fw/proxy

fiogf49gjkf0d i am trying to do credit card processing thru one of our systems.it is infact calling a web service which is hosted at a merchant site . when i give the credentials for my proxy, it works! But our security dept dont want to give userid/pwds in a config file.
Is there a way that i can call a ws without proxy setting from inside the firewall of a company?
this test web server is hosted inside lan and has to passthru 2 firewalls.. |

fiogf49gjkf0d If you're network requires a proxy for inet connections then there's no getting around that. You'll have to supply the info needed for the proxy. There's no way to not use the proxy if that is how the network is set up.
You could always secure the proxy user/password in a database on the network, values stored encrypted. This way there is only one central place to store it for all users (in case you want to change it at some point) and no user/passwords sitting in files on everyone's desktops. Your app would read the values from the db, decrypt them and continue as normal. |

fiogf49gjkf0d Thanks for answering Ryan!
I got it fixed.The stupid page needed a non-empty value for the proxy port.All i had to do is to put in a value of 0 for that and then it started working.... |
