Tokens and Reverse Proxy

[Drew]

Does anyone have any experience using secured services through a reverse proxy?

I am having issues authenticating a token once the application passes through the reverse proxy.
I am able to get it working on the host machine.

I am using an older version of the Flex Viewer (1.3) - no my choice  - So I have configured the token to be passed using the proxy.ashx file.
I am using Apache mod_proxy and AGS 9.3.1 - (not my choice)

Any tips would be appreciated generating the token to work through a reverse proxy.

Is there a way to generate a token that can be authenticated from any IP,  or web application or do they all have to be created specifically for each app URL.

Hello, if you are referencing the proxy page proxy.ashx then you will want to use the IP address option on the get token page http(s)://[webserver]/ArcGISInstance/tokens/gettoken.html

From there ***warning I am not a network guy***

I had ping'd my outside domain and got back the internal ip address of my outside domain, and that is the ip I had to use in order to create my token

Meaning, I had to use the ip address I get when connected to my network, versus the ip I get when ping'ing my url for a computer not on my network

What are you using to generate your token?  Are you not using the token page?

I am not familiar with the proxy.ashx file. Where is it located?

I had issue setting this up using the tokens/gettoken.html page.

My issue was I didn't have url rewiting set up properly on the web server for arcgis/tokens*. There was also something about about specifying https:// as well as http:// in the rule.
