> Currently when using basic http authentication, the Authorization header is not sent with the initial request.  Instead, Axis2/C waits for the server to first send a failed authentication response with a WWW-Authenticate header.  Then Axis2/C will resend the request with the required Authorization header.  If the user specifies the Authorization information up front, then the Authorization header should be sent with the initial request. 
> It adds unnecessary overhead to require 2 requests to be sent every time.  Also in my case, my server is not sending the WWW-Authenticate, so I am unable to authenticate at this point.  (Although this piece is probably a bug with my server.)
