The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Besides doing this, you can also use basic authentication or have the applications pass in a user name and password inside of the SOAP message. Having the caller send in a user name/password also gives you the ability to determine who exactly did the update.

subject: Re: [WEB400] Web services security
I fixed the subject line.
So, if my URL for the web service is something like "
http://Mywebservices.mma-online.org:9999/MyApplication/services/MyWebService";, I would use the following?
<Location /MyApplication>
Order allow, deny
Allow from 20.1.2.10
</Location>
Since "/MyApplication" isn't really a directory under the Apache server, I assumed that I couldn't use the <Directory> section. I was looking at this section of the Apache manual
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/sections.html.

I don't have the Apache manual handy but you can certainly limit access to the web service URL by IP address. This can be done with any URL. Of course IP addresses can be spoofed but if this is only internal then that should suffice.
