Thanks Tommy, Do you have any good examples of using a webservice to connect to lists. I have seen some examples where they have ran into permission issues as well using web services.

I was trying to do exactly the same thing and I couldn't because the Sharepoint object model won't allow you to connect to a server outside your farm even though the developer has access to that Sharepoint site. eg. I'm logged in as COMPANY\Tommy.Segoro to a PC named PC-01 that is part of COMPANY domain. I can't access http://intranet through the object model even though my COMPANY\Tommy.Segoro username has a site collection admin access to it simply because http://intranet lives on a different farm than PC-01. It makes sense though, otherwise I can connect to anyone's Sharepoint site using the object model. So yes, we have to use web service to do this. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brendan Law [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 13 November 2008 9:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] Sharepoint Object Modal to server 2 I think that you can only use the object model to access web apps within the same farm...

If so, can it connect to Server1 via telnet on port 80? (start->run->cmd->telnet server1 80)? >From the look of the error message, it's more of a connectivity issue that >security/authentication/authorization/permissions. Cheers, Daniel From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Trent Allday Sent: Thursday, 13 November 2008 10:42 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [OzMOSS] Sharepoint Object Modal to server 2 Hi, Hoping someone can help me out here after endless googling. I have two sharepoint MOSS environments (2 separate servers) both are on the same internal network using the same Active Directory. I am trying to lookup a sharepoint list on server 1 from server 2's sharepoint site. Below is the code snippet from the webpart on server 2. Using mysite As New SPSite("http://server1/") Using ElevatedSite As SPWeb = mysite.OpenWeb() Dim List As SPList = ElevatedSite.Lists("Associations") Dim query As SPQuery = New SPQuery() Dim items As SPListItemCollection = List.GetItems(query) 'print first column of first row HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(items(0).GetFormattedValue("Title")) ElevatedSite.AllowUnsafeUpdates = False End Using End Using I am getting the following error: The Web application at http://server1 could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. If the URL should be serving existing content, the system administrator may need to add a new request URL mapping to the intended application. I have tried chaning the identity user for the application pool on server 2 but has failed to do anything. Maybe the identity user doesn't have permissions to server1 db, but from I can see the user should!?? I could try using web services but I saw articles on the net with perople experiencing issue with that aswell... If anybody could shed some light on this it would be great.
