dotnet web services: WCF service is not visible from clients outside the development
computer.

I have the following service implementation



<services>



<service name="Hitnext.ActiveDialer.Services.ActiveDialerServices"

behaviorConfiguration="ServiceBehavior">



<endpoint name="netTCP_Endpoint"
binding="netTcpBinding"

contract="Hitnext.ActiveDialer.Services.IActiveDialerServices"

bindingConfiguration="netTCP_Bindings"/>



<endpoint name="MetaDataEchange"

binding="mexHttpBinding"

contract="IMetadataExchange" />



<host>

<baseAddresses>

<add baseAddress="net.tcp://somedomain.com:19000" />

<add baseAddress="http://localhost:18000" />

</baseAddresses>

</host>



</service>



</services>



I create a proxy in the client side thru the Add Service Reference tool
in VS.
When I run it from my computer (local development computer) it works
fine.

If I publish the app and try to run it from another computer, it does
not find the service (that is running in somedomain.com:19000).

So you know the service is running when I run the client, and I can
access somedomain.com:19000 via telnet from the client computer. And
also I redirect connection from ports 19000 and 18000 to the computer
running the service.

Any idea why it might now be working?

Have you checked your server's firewall? Can you connect externally?
