Invoke web service tester from remote machine.

[Chris Davoli]

Somebody I work with created a web service and of course it creates an asmx
page for the web service. When you open this page up on the browser it gives
you a kind of tester page where you can enter parameters and invoke and test
the web service and get back xml to see what the output xml looks like. I
guess it creates this page fon the wdsl. That works fine when I use it on a
local machine, but when I go to a remote machine, it gives the the soap
information, but tells me "The test form is only available for requests from
the local machine." and it won't allow me to press the invoke button (it
doesn't show up). I know I used to be able to do this from a remote machine.
How do you turn that on to be able to invoke the web service from a remote
machine? Is there something in the web config?
