Hi Wells,

Thanks for your details explanation!

Based on your description, I think the difference between the old account
and new account should only be the setting on the system, so there may be
some different setting on cookie that is sent.

I suggest you use script to print out the cookie that is copied to
usercontrol under these 2 different account, then we can see if there is
any difference between the cookie that the machine sent under old and new
account.

I will wait for your further feedback and more information. Thanks

Thank you for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions or
concerns, please feel free to post it in the group. I am standing by to be
of assistance.

Jeffrey,

That's a good thought about making sure the cookie gets setup correctly
under both accounts.  While I did not test whether the cookie got setup
correctly under the new account (the account that works, so I assume the
cookie is correct) I did use script to popup a dialog box with the value of
the cookie in the old account, and everything appeared as I would have
expected.  The cookie is an encrypted string so I could not verify whether
the value of the cookie was correct, but if it had not been correct my
Global.asax would have redirected the request to the login page and I would
have gotten an "object moved" exception from the webservice.  I have seen
this exact senario previously, while the program was still in development,
and the two exceptions are distinct.

The only thing I can thing I can think to do now is to somehow attach a
debugger to the web server and try to see what is going on.  This will be
particularly difficult because I already have many different users using the
system.

Thanks,
Wells

Hi Wells,

Sounds really strange. Before you try attaching debugger onto the server
process, I think there is still something we can trace at clientside. I'm
not sure whether you've ever installed the MS SOAP toolkit3 which contains
a Trace Utility tool that can help capture the raw SOAP MESSAGE (HTTP
HEADERS) sending out and response back. Then, we can compare the soap
messages sending under the two different accounts to see whether there is
any certain difference.

You can get the soap toolkit3 here:

Hope helps. Thanks.

Steven,

I had to give the client his computer back, so there isn't really anything I
can do right now.  It is however possible that I might get another chance at
his computer at some point in the future, and if so, I will try caputring
the SOAP Message as you described.  Just one question though: when I
followed the URL you supplied, the site said that the Soap toolkit had been
depricated by the .NET framework.  Will this trace utility allow me to trace
the soap calls even though I am not using COM or the Toolkit to make my
WebService calls?  I currently use C# and the .NET framework to make those
WebService calls.

Thanks,
Wells

Hi Wells,

Thanks for your followup. Yes, the SOAP TOOLKIT is depricated , this is
because the SOAP TOOLKIT used to be the tools for generating webservice's
WSDL or client proxy and now the .net framework has much more stronger
functions on this. But the Trace Utility is a  small tool contained in the
soap toolkit which is only used for testing. It just listen on a certain
port and then capture all the SOAP messages on that port and forward the
message to the destination port (address) we speicfied. In othe word, it
dosn't concern with whether we're using soap toolkit or .net framework to
build the webservice. Just a trace tool such as net monitor.

Thanks.
