Issue with Incorrect URLs in the WSDL of a .NET Web Service

We have installed an ASP.NET web site on a client's server. This site has a web service with a couple of web methods that are called by a Flash object in order to display a news feed.

How is an aggregator built?

Let's say I want to aggregate information related to a specific niche from many sources (could be travel, technology, or whatever). How would I do that?

Dynamic C#.NET Webservice

I am using a class in a C# ASP.NET project to allow a script written in some random scripting language to expose webservice methods dynamically - in other words, the script should be able to expose a method of any name with any signature (as long as it's valid, anyway) to the outside world through this SOAP interface (able to add and rem...

Strategies for updating or versioning web services?

I'm interested to hear the best practices on how different versions of web services are handled. To clarify, if you've got some web methods exposed as a web service, then you want to add a feature/functionality and thus change the signature of those method calls, how do you handle this in a manner that doesn't break all of your clients...

How to validate caller with webservice communication

I inherited a system that gets data from a webmethod in the form of a dataset. The data is potentially sensitive. The one thing that struck me about this was that some methods had no way of knowing, or checking who the caller was, and others that required an integer number to identify the caller. This integer starts at0 and is sequential...
