Thanks! They are using Cold Fusion. We already had a few hurdles with how Remedy wants to serve up the WS/SOAP and what and how CF wants to call/consume it. They are still trying to figure out how to include authentication info in the call were as it is really easy when I test with soapUI. I have sent them the sample soapUI XML but I am not sure how that translates into CF's capabilities.
