Hi,

Is it possible to configure a standalone computer to run NAV web services without the PC being a member of any domain? If so which accounts should the SQL/NAV Service Tier/NAV Web Service services be run under?

    Now it doesn't talk about webservices, so maybe you should respond with a comment and see if Freddy answers it.

    I would guess, because there are companies that have less than 5 ppl and they don't need active directory to manage their network.

    Yeah - I was wondering if they were using a workgroup or something.

    I was just curious. I was hoping that the op wasn't going to say something about exposing their NAV web services directly to the open internet...

    If you look at my post about setting up NAV 2009 in a workgroup (as rashed posted) you can see that the users that needs to login needs to be created on the server machine and Web Services should work just like the role tailored client.

    I will fire up my workgroup virtual machines and test (should have done that in the first place :| )

    Yes, Web Services works in a workgroup environment too.
