Question

I have two web services.
One that I use for the mobile applications to select/update data to/from the database. I was asked to write another web service for third parties to collect public data from our database. I don’t want my first service to be public.
If I give the link to my web service to anyone, they can see my other web services as well
For example,

http://server.mydomain.com/axis2/services/WebService?wsdl

Any one can list all my services using

http://server.mydomain.com/axis2/services/listService

Is there a way that I can hide one of my services from the public?

Any Idea????

Thanks

Base URL is same, so, yes users can see all services. But this doesn’t mean that they can access it as well. You can restrict access by putting some authentication/authorization.

But if you don’t want people to even know about it. I will suggest better put it in a separate Axis engine. So that your URLs become different.
