I hear you
Problem is the web service will still be available on the one available over 
the external network

Dean,
Stand up a second Tomcat on the same host, configure it identical to the first, 
but on a separate port, without ID/PW configured for anonymous access.  Make 
the one that has it only available internal to the network, make the other one 
available external to your network.

It increases maintenance (two Mid-Tiers), but it would certainly solve your 
problem...assuming you have enough memory to host a second tomcat.

LJ,
That’s the whole problem ID/PW
Currently its available via the Anonymous user, and now need to be changed to 
ID/PW or not available over public one of the two.

But changing the WS’s to be ID/PW we have a host of applications that would 
need to change (and most are legacy) see the dilemma here.

The remedy web services are run by AXIS on Tomcat
I found this on the web it might be able to do a port change for all XML 
related traffic.
Will need to investigate further on this subject to change maybe the port used 
by Axis

This question is probably more Tomcat Related then Remedy.

Well....if you don't have an anonymous ID/PW configured, then the public would 
need to have an ID/PW to be able to access anything on the server...that's a 
security gateway preventing it.

HI LJ

That was my thinking as well tomcat won’t be able to distinguish between the two

The idea behind it is that we want only our internal network to access the web 
services, and not the external public network.

Dean,
Web Services are just a servlet in the Mid-Tier code.  If yo could explain what 
you are trying to do by separating them out, we might be able to help with that 
objective.

Hi
I doubt if you would be able to do this or if someone has done it before
I would think this would be more on the Tomcat Level

If it possible to run your Remedy Web Services on a different port then your 
normal mid-tier port

Thanks
Dean
