Problem after moving WS to QA Server

I moved the webservice from localhost to our QA server. Now I cannot connect at all through the log in, alothough I can test it fine through a browser (get a ticket, return a ds).

What do I need to do to get the web service up and running. I changed the host information from localhost to the servername. I didn't change the namespace from tempuri though.

This is my first attempt at webservices, but I was working fine on localhost connecting to a remote SQL server.

Any thoughts?

could it be a network problem, like the company firewall not letting you through?

Not a firewall issue. The guy who handles all the servers is on vacation so I set upd the virtual directory and ftp site myself. Since I can test the WS via the web, I assumed everything was fine. What permissions need to be on the actual folder and virtual dir?

There are literally a million things in the debugger for m_WsAuth. What should I be looking for? It seems to have the domain name correct; and the uri; the port is 80; the namespace is correct; under binding it has to entries for location, one is 'nothing' and the other is "".

Other than that...

The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied. Is this a folder permission?

Sorry, didn't dig deep enough in the debugger. Not that I understand this message:

On the web service virtual dir I checked 'Allow anonymous access. and it connected fine. What are the potential dangers of this? This is just a Test server but in terms of the production server?

it means anybody will be able to see the webservice, but unless they have a correct username and password, they won't be able to do anything.
