Hi Folks,
One of my user departments is developing an application that uses facilities
at a site www.claimcard.com <http://www.claimcard.com> . The application
apparently uses DCOM. The application will not work through my Gauntlet
firewall (which I can't play with, it's managed). Claimcard tells me I have
to implement DCOM on gauntlet. I realize Gauntlet is a proxy style firewall
and that DCOM may have to be proxied. Is DCOM related to Active X? Is there
a DCOM proxy for Gauntlet?
We ran some traces, first using a dial-up internet connection to the
claimcard site which worked fine, then traced the activity through Gauntlet.
The good trace shows an HTTP "GET" command with two fields
"If-Modified-Since:" and "If-None-Match:" which are not present in the bad
trace. I have no clue what all this means. The applications folks came to me
and said "you have to change your firewall". Well, as you may guess this is
not gonna happen. Can anyone out there give me some hints as to what might
be going on and maybe some suggestions to pass along to my ISP to see if
they can get this thing to work. Any comments are appreciated.
Thanks.
