Sending a Soap Header with a WSDL Soap Request with PHP

I'm extremely new to SOAP and I'm trying to implement a quick test client in PHP that consumes a ASP.NET web service. The web service relies on a Soap Header that contains authorization parameters.

Is it possible to send the auth header along with a soap request when using WSDL?

My code:

php

$service = new SoapClient("http://localhost:16840/CTI.ConfigStack.WS/ATeamService.asmx?WSDL");
$service->AddPendingUsers($users, 3); // Example

webservice

[SoapHeader("AuthorisationHeader")]
[WebMethod]
public void AddPendingUsers(List<PendingUser> users, int templateUserId)
{
    ateamService.AddPendingUsers(users, templateUserId, AuthorisationHeader.UserId);
}

How would the auth header be passed in this context? Or will I need to do a low lever __soapCall() to pass in the header? Also, am I invoking the correct soap call within PHP?

From stackoverflow

• You should be able to create a header and then add it to the client so it is sent for all subsequent requests. You will probably need to change the namespace parameter.

  $service = new SoapClient("http://localhost:16840/CTI.ConfigStack.WS/ATeamService.asmx?WSDL");
  //                        Namespace               Header Name          value   must-understand
  $header = new SoapHeader('http://tempuri.org/', 'AuthorisationHeader', $value, false);
  $service->__setSoapHeaders(array($header));   
  
  $service->AddPendingUsers($users, 3); // Example

• $client = new SoapClient(PassportWebService);
  $apiauth =array('userName'=>HeaderName,'password'=>HeaderPassport,'ip'=>$onlineip);
  
  $authvalues = new SoapVar($apiauth, SOAP_ENC_OBJECT,'ReqHeader',"SoapBaseNameSpace");
  $header =  new SoapHeader("SoapBaseNameSpace","ReqHeader", $authvalues, true);
  $client->__setSoapHeaders(array($header));
  

• I am having a problem getting a custom soap header to work with PHP5. What I require is something like this:

  <SOAP-ENV:Header> 
  <USER>myusername</USER> 
  <PASSWORD>mypassword</PASSWORD> 
  </SOAP-ENV:Header> 
  

  What I get is :

  <SOAP-ENV:Header> 
  <ns2:auth> 
  <USER>myusername</USER> 
  <PASSWORD>mypassword</PASSWORD> 
  </ns2:auth> 
  </SOAP-ENV:Header> 
  

  I would like to remove the namespace tags. The code I use to get this is:

  class Authstuff { 
  public $USER; 
  public $PASSWORD; 
  public function __construct($user, $pass) { 
  $this->USER = $user; 
  $this->PASSWORD = $pass; 
  } 
  } 
  
  $auth = new Authstuff('myusername', 'mypassword'); 
  $param = array('Authstuff' => $auth); 
  $authvalues = new SoapVar($auth,SOAP_ENC_OBJECT); 
  $header = new 
  SoapHeader('http://soapinterop.org/echoheader/',auth,$authvalues);
