Thank you Brad and Pete for your responses. I�??m not sure I adequately explained the crux of our question. We can/did have a web adapter installed on a DMZ/proxy server that led to the Internet. We could use the web adapter as a reverse proxy to gain access into AGS services (via web e.g. http://server1.domain.gov/arcgis/rest/services), however that is not how our external customers will typically consume our services. They will use a viewer front end provided by us (Silverlight for example). While the Silverlight viewer front-end resides on an internal AGS server and can be accessed over http �?? it isn�??t clear how to configure the DMZ web adapter to provide reverse proxy to web paths that don�??t reside under the �?�/arcgis/ path on the internal AGS servers. For example, the Silverlight application might reside at http://server1.domain.gov/viewers/SL_app1.htm but the web adapter doesn�??t provide proxy to that path by default and we don�??t see any configuration options in the web adapter to provide customized forwarding rules. The other option we considered is that the viewer front-ends need to reside under the ../arcgis/ path on the internal AGS servers but we don�??t find any instructions/information regarding how to integrate/register the viewers into the AGS site. �??Server directories�?� (jobs,cache etc) creation doesn�??t appear to provide a place/type designed to host viewer files. A test of manually creating a new web directory underneath the ../arcgis/ directory on an internal AGS server didn�??t work. The web adapter failed to forward web requests directed to a test path that housed Silverlight viewer software underneath a created http://server1.domain.gov/arcgis/SLtestDir Silverlight test directory. So our conclusion is that in order to provide reverse proxy into our viewer front-ends we need include a non-ESRI url rewrite/ARR functionality on the proxy server either in addition to or instead of the web adapter. We are looking for confirmation of this conclusion because we�??ve had other agencies tell us that they believe as long as we are using an ESRI provided viewer such as Silverlight or JavaScript that we can use the web adapter as the reverse proxy. Unfortunately no one can explain how that would be implemented. I hope this helps clarify our specific question. Thank you,

We are also experiencing slowness when trying to right click on AGS services in ArcCatalog 10.1 via an administrative data connection. We already have AGS SP1 installed which solved other problems but doesn't seem to help with this. We tried moving our config store back (from a network drive) to a local drive of an AGS server (still referencing via a UNC since we have multiple servers in the site) but this didn't appear to help the slowness. Our OS is Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise, 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601 We have no firewall between our Desktop sessions and the AGS servers. On point to note is that a user-connection via ArcCatalog 10.0 does not produce the slowness. Unfortunately an admin-connection is not possible from ArcCatalog 10.0

We???re setting up ArcGIS for Server 10.1 web adaptors and realizing that the reverse proxy functionality provided by the web adaptors only applies to the GIS Server Services and NOT to other GIS server web paths where the front end viewers (Silverlight and JavaScript) might reside. Our planned model involves hosting Silverlight and JavaScript viewer apps on only one of our intranet ArcGIS web servers, and have those viewer apps accessible by Internet customers via a reverse proxy in our DMZ. We thought the web adapter provided this functionality but that doesn???t appear to be the case. Can anyone confirm that we still need install additional reverse proxy functionality such as the URL rewrite and ARR that we used with our ArcGIS Server 10.0 reverse proxy? I don???t find updated instructions or information regarding this for 10.1 Thank you for any information you can provide
