401 Error when attempting to access localhost web services

Hi,

 I'm trying to implement the AuthenticateUser we web service call , located in /Sitefinity/Services/Security/Users.svc, by following this article about getting started with RESTful services in Sitefinity.  However, when I get to the GetResponse line in RESTfulClient.InvokeRequest(), I encounter the following error:

 I have already set the Anonymous Authentication in IIS to Enabled. What else do I need to properly establish credentials on my local host?

Hello,

Could you take a look at this article.

http://www.sitefinity.com/blogs/svetlayankova/posts/svetla-yankovas-blog/2013/01/02/working-with-restful-services-part-2-claims-authentication-and-designing-service-calls

 its likely you have claims authentication on and that is the wrong endpoint to use for claims.

Also, I'm curious if you are working with an existing Sitefinity client? If so, you may want to have them add you as a licensed developer so you can access support under their license.

I am running the trial version of Sitefinity, and I am the only user/administrator for that environment.

Hi,

Great, please let us know if you have any additional questions.
