If your IFD setup is cool for On Premise but doesn't work for IFD + On Premise, what is the one thing that is missing -- the thing that the documentation is missing.Monday, March 16, 2009 8:51 PM

Here's some notes regarding an IFD implementation that may be of help http://blog.customereffective.com/blog/2008/04/lessons-learned.html
If you provide some more details around what is failing - or what messages you're seeing when you attempt to connect via the IFD, someone here may recognize the issue and have more specifics they can help you with.

My challenge is that I don't have access to the server so I can't say much about the implementation but the result of changing the setting to IFD + On Premise is complete failure. I want to say 404 error but the application completely fails both IFD and Outlook client.
Hence my post looking for "the trick."Tuesday, March 17, 2009 4:08 PM -
Are you a deployment administrator in CRM? - I'm not sure of the specific permissions needed, but if you aren't an administrator on the server-side, I doubt you'll have much success in changing the authentication method for CRM.

Oh, I'm not the guy doing it. My infrastructure guy is implementing the IFD. I'm just trying to help with answers.Tuesday, March 17, 2009 4:14 PM

Ok - perhaps your infrastructure guy could use the IFD configuration notes (in the above posting) + CRM Documentation to resolve it. -
There could be any number of issues in play here - from router configuration / firewalls and other network challenges - I don't think there's a secret answer that makes everything work in any scenario, but if you find it, please let me know :) -
The documentation & notes can help walk through the steps needed and share some light on what link in the chain is failing.
