Re: How to? run query on index server through firewall

Indexing services uses named pipes so it is really unlikely you can get this
to work on other ports. You might be able to use webdav to query it however.

I have a web application on a web server in a DMZ environment which
needs to query and index server using MSIDX. There is a firewall
between web server and index server, in order for this to work it
appears I need ports 137-139 open on the firewall to allow the query.
Opening these ports is not going to be acceptable to the security guys.
Is there any out of the box solution, be it a web service, query over
http ISAPI interface, to this scenario?
If not I guess I would have to build my own web service wrapper around
the Index Server so that I can query and get results throught the
firewall over https. Not popular with managers due to development time
required!
Thanks in advance
