This is most likely a permissions issue in IIS.  Can you try browsing to the SDK web site (http://yourcomputer/ontime2005sdk) and see if you get an error?

I had a similar error.  I found out that the problem was the lack of anonymous authentication on the web server.  I had set up windows authentication only so that the OnTime Web client would recognize Active Directory users.  For the OnTimeSDK virtual directory, I changed the authentication to anonymous authentication and the problem dissappeared.

Well, the problem had only disappeared for a short time.  If you manually send the credentials from the client code, this seems to work okay.  Every time you instantiate a handler object, if you specify the credentials, the web server is happy.  Like this:

using (OnTimeCustomerService.CustomerHandler onTimeServiceHandler = new OnTimeCustomerService.CustomerHandler())
{
   onTimeServiceHandler.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

   // ... perform actions.
}
