Error in WCF client consuming Axis 2 web service with WS-Security UsernameToken PasswordDigest authentication scheme

Question

I have a WCF client connecting to a Java based Axis2 web service (outside my control). It is about to have WS-Security applied to it, and I need to fix the .NET client. Howe

I had a similar problem recently and gave up searching for a non-WSE solution. After a couple days of pulling my hair out I ended downloading the WSE 3.0 SDK, generating a proxy class using WseWsdl3.exe, and creating a new policy for the UsernameToken. I was up and running in 15min. The following is currently working for me.

RemoteService service = new RemoteService();  //generated class

UsernameToken token = new UsernameToken(username, password, PasswordOption.SendPlainText);
Policy policy = new Policy();
policy.Assertions.Add(new UsernameOverTransportAssertion());

service.SetClientCredential(token);
service.SetPolicy(policy);

var result = service.MethodCall();
