Hi, Have you actually tried it?
We use Axis in a similar environment to that which you describe with no problems. Dan. -----Original Message----- From: John Svazic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17 March 2003 15:35 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Intranet Hosting of SOAP specification Hi, Has anyone approached the problem of how to handle SOAP requests via Axis on an intranet with no external access? I'm concerned that the server that will be handling the SOAP requests will try to validate the incoming requests against an external XML Schema (such as the SOAP specification) but the server may not have internet access due to corporate security policies. Is it a valid solution to host these schemas locally instead?
