Re: WebService Authentication

WOSessions do actually work with WOWebServices (we use them in our  
app) ... I talk about in the Wikibook entry on being a Web Service  
Provider at the bottom.

Web_Service_Provider

However, due to bugs in Axis, your clients will need to use a  
modified Axis.  I have not reverified this with Axis2, though, so  
maybe things don't suck for Cookies in Axis2.  If you are not in  
control of your web service clients, though, you'll probably have to  
go the route of actually passing around a session ID manually.  Even  
with this route, I suspect you can make WOSession work properly by  
restoring the session yourself based on that session ID.
