Signed Forms Issue

F

Freeon

On our domain we use Shrarepoint/InfoPath solution for tracking bugs.
Everything works great for domain users but we have a vendor that logs in
through the VPN and can't get to the Infopath forms.

I think the problems is a webservice in the form that is used to generate
unique ticket numbers.

After some reseach it looks like this is a cross-domain issue because the
webservice is involved and it can be fixed by digitgally signing (fully
trust) the form.

So I tried the digital signature and the vendoer still can't access the form.

Looking at the solution I might have made it more complicated than it needs
to be.

Here are the servers employed inside of our domain.
xPS = Portal Server
xCA = Cert Authority (standalone)
xAD = Active Directory (PDC)
xWS = Web Service Host. Provides custom ticket number to infopath form.

1. I created a Root and Infopath (code signing) certificates on xCA
2. Linked the infopath cert to the form.
3. Installed the Root on the client machine (Trusted CA section).

Now the question is when the user VPN's in do they need some kind of special
access to xCA or xWS?

They get an "Insufficent Privlages" message when accessing the new signed
templeate.xsn file.

Any help would be appreciated,
Freeon
