Thanks for the tip, It worked!!! I now get a very similar request in my trace as the one expected... the only problem is I get <soap:Envelope> <soap:Body> and <soap:Header> tags instead of <SOAP-ENV:Envelope> <SOAP-ENV:Body> , etc... all the rest in the requests seem the same but the web service cryies out: 
<?xml version='1.0' ?><SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schema
+s.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><SOAP-ENV:Body><SOAP-ENV:Fault><faultco
+de>SOAP-ENV:Server</faultcode><faultstring>null</faultstring><detail>
+<IBResponse type="error"><DefaultTitle>Integration Broker Response</D
+efaultTitle><StatusCode>20</StatusCode><MessageSet>158</MessageSet><M
+essageID>10403</MessageID><DefaultMessage>A request must supply eithe
+r a RequestorNode or a DistinquishedName</DefaultMessage><MessagePara

+sageParameters></IBResponse></detail></SOAP-ENV:Fault></SOAP-ENV:Body
