jay,
The only thing that would change after installing an RI server is your inbound connections. The outbound transactions would still remain the same as the RI is used mainly to avoid direct inbound access to your internal server.
UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, you do not need any special services or packages on the RI server. Just setup the RI server and the internal server to communicate with each other (covered well in the Admininstrator’s guide) and the ask you partners to use the RI server’s name and port in their URL. For example if they are currently sending to
http://your_internal_server:5555/invoke/wm.tn/receive
and your RI server has the proxy port configure on port 80 then their sending URL would change to
http://your_ri_server:80/invoke/wm.tn/receive
even through wm.tn:receive does not exist on your RI server.
