Default WSE 3.0 Security?

If I use WSE3.0 security to authenticate my user does the client need to
install WSE3.0 or any other installation? Does he need to use the WSE API to
send requestes to my service?How does a Java client running on a UNIX machine
achive this? If we need a client side installation or dependency on an WSE
3.0 API.

WSE 3.0 is Microsoft's implementation of the WS-Security specification and it
supports version 1.0 and 1.1. Therefore, you have numerous options for
Java-to-.NET security interop using WS-Security. First, you can build your
own Java library to handle the security protocol by "simply" following the
WS-Security spec. There are also Java libraries freely available for
implementing a WS-Security based solution. Do a search on Google.

So, to answer your question, no, your UNIX clients (or even Windows clients
for that matter) don't need WSE 3.0. The client must "simply" comply the
WS-Security spec.
