Hi,
I'm totally novice when it comes to authentication protocols.
Here is what is needed to be done: Create a web service which calls the NTLM
API for authenticating the user. I guess the parametres needed to be passed
to this web service are:(a)username (b) password and maybe (c) domain name.
It should return "True" or "False".

How simple or hard is it to accomplish it? What are the major steps to be
performed? What needs to be done on the 2003 Server to make all this happen?

Any help would be much appreciated.
