Using other SharePoint Farm Web Applications for ESRI Web Part

The documentation suggests that I should be able to connect to other sites in my Farm. Yet, when I try to connect to another web application in the farm, it looks like the web part is fishing for JSON. It doesn't appear to be checking for the SharePoint Web Services. Since we are still on MOSS 2007, how do I get it to connect?

I also tried to point to another site in the current web application. But is also failed with "Unable to Connect".

BTW: I did add the cross domain policy to the root of the other web application.

With the 1.x release there is a limitation that we cannot access lists across different SharePoint farms. Accessing lists on different SharePoint sites, site collections, and web applications works without issue.

Hi Bob,
They are within the same farm. Our farm consists of web applications for MySites, Collaboration, Enterprise Content.

How do I address the different web applications for the http endpoint? I am using the recommended format: http://<web application>/<site path>

When I watch fiddler, it appears to only look for JSON addresses. Shouldn't it look for SharePoint Web Services too?
