I have to use existing web services installed on a non-java server
from my JBoss java web application (with struts 2). I read a little
about Axis2 and xFire, but it seems that the requirements is to use
RPC/SOAP Encoding (as I see <soap:body use="encoded" in the WSDL
document that I should use). I must use HTTPS security with user/
password in the SOAP header.

Your best bet would be to get a hold of wsdl2java or Eclipse WTP,
which can generate java clients out of a WSDL. Once you feed these
tools the WSDL for the service(s), the java clients generated will be
stubs that can be used to access the services just like a local call.

WSDL2Java is part of the Apache Axis project.
<http://ws.apache.org/axis/>
<http://ws.apache.org/axis2/> for the newer one,
which calls the tool WSDL2Code
<http://ws.apache.org/axis2/tools/1_3/CodegenToolReference.html>

It's apparently available from various places, including as a plugin for Eclipse.
