Here&amp;#39;s my setup:

InfoPath 2010 browser-enabled form (fully-trusted) running on SharePoint 2010, and a 
C# web service hosted on our SharePoint server.

The process we have set up is that when a form is submitted it goes to two places; the SharePoint library and a web service. The web service generates a PDF using some of the submitted form information and uploads it to another document library.

On my development computer at work, which is connected to our network, everything works fine. I logged into the SharePoint portal using my home computer, which is obviously not on our company&amp;#39;s network, and the PDF never appeared. However, the form submitted without error.

The URL to the web service is something like &amp;quot;http://OurServerName:5555/Something/Something/Service1.asmx&amp;quot;. When connected to our network I can browse to the URL and see the service fine. At home I cannot, which I assumed.

This leads me to believe that that&amp;#39;s why the PDF didn&amp;#39;t appear while testing at home. Could anyone help me to understand this? And if I am understanding this correctly, how can I make this web service available outside of our network? Thanks so much in advance.</description></item></channel></rss>
