</mx:Application>

when i run it it gives me a following error: [RPC Fault faultString="HTTP request error" faultCode="Server.Error.Request" faultDetail="Unable to load WSDL. If currently online, please verify the URI and/or format of the WSDL (http://cmuicds.rutgers.edu/uicds/core/ws/services/DirectoryService?wsdl)"]

I really need help on this.Thanks.

When I type the url "http://cmuicds.rutgers.edu/uicds/core/ws/services/DirectoryService?wsdl" into my browser, the HTTP GET response prompts me for a username and password.

Chances are that an HTTP POST which is what mx:WebService is using is facing the same obstacle too. I believe you need to address that authentication problem.
