Hi All,
I'm using NAV 2009 SP1, and when try to list the services using url :http://localhost:7047/DynamicsNAV/WS/Services
system throws following error,
* I have made sure that the server is configured for the remote access.
Can someone please suggest, what am I missing, thanks.

Hi All,
Problem is resolved, I specified the windows account for web service to run with rather than using the default network account.
