Invoke Service using SAAJ Client

Question

Hi,
I trying to create a SAAJ client to invoke a web service which is already deployed. I am facing some difficulties in constructing the SOAP xml to invoke a method which is deployed. I am using AXIS 1.4 & TomCat 4.1.3.
For example:
I have a method validateIPAddress( String ) which is deployed in the server.
public String validateIP(String ipAddress)
     if ( ipAddress.trim().length() > 0 )
     return "S100";
     else
          return "E100";
To invoke the above method i wanted to create a SAAJ client. Kindly help me how to construct the SOAP request.
Thanks in Advance.

You say above:
"When I test the service, it defaults to client 800 for authorization."
Are you testing the service via SICF directly?
To test from SICF
Goto: transaction /nsicf   > default host ->                              
sap -> bc -> gui -> sap -> its -> my_service
o Select Test service from context menu of the service node         
i.e: Right Click -> Test Service                                    
This will launch the webgui service in the browser - from here logon
to system again. From the OKFilecode type /n(transaction name)      
What are the GUI Configuration settings of the service?
Goto: transaction /nsicf   > default host ->                              
sap -> bc -> gui -> sap -> its -> my_service
Double click on "my_service"
Tab: Service Data -> Button: GUI Configuration
Where have you the client information specified for the service in SICF?
What is the default client value under the "System Logon Settings"?
Goto: Tab: Error Pages -> Tab: Logon Errors -> System Logon: Click the "Configuation Button"
