Trac Wiki - XMLRpc

The company I work at has a wiki based on Trac.

I have created this program that allows the user to generate an updated version of a wiki page.

The program works and the page is updated, but in the history - the user is anonymous.

I did all my test on a different server with the same trac installed on it and in the history, there is information about the user(Not anonymous)

I used the following code to write to the wiki 

wiki.putPage(getPageName(), newResult.toString(), h);

Here is my authentication code: 

    Wiki wiki = null;

    XmlRpcClientConfigImpl conf = new XmlRpcClientConfigImpl();

    setAuthentication(conf, login, password);
    XmlRpcClient client = new XmlRpcClient();
    client.setConfig(conf);

Do you know why it write the page as user Anonymous?

Thank you for your replies

Your question did not include information about the URL used, but most likely you are not using a URL that challenges for authentication. A Trac instance is typically configured to just challenge for authentication at the /login URL, so your RPC call needs to use the <tracproject>/login/rpc URL (and not just <tracproject>/rpc).
