in NAV Three Tier
hi everyone,
correct me if i am wrong,but i think that the machine that has the nav server can populate the web services without a web server. (in our case the web components for the web/universal clients are installed in another server)
So,?
1.Is there any document / whitepaper to explain the mechanism? (customer's it security asked for it)
2.at last is there any document about port forwarding etc of how to expose out in the internet these web services?
Kind regards and any help is too much appreciated

    NAV uses Windows Communication Foundation for publishing web services without hosting an iis on the machine it has the NAV server. So all the magic is happening inside NAV and i don't think that much information can be found how nav does these things or discuss with the sql server.
