I have a need to consume the Webservices published in MSDynamics applications. This uses the Microsoft specific NTLM based authentication and authorization mechanism. However to consume the SOAP services I did find any direct solution. Below is the code that is working. You have to change the credentials and the input SOAP message formation strings remaining all you can use as it is.
Note: Use the latest httpclient-4.2.3.jar or above , commons-codec-1.11 or above. Few more other jars which you can take from Axis application.
