I posted this as a comment to a blog post, but since I fear it's being overlooked because of the post's title ...
I'm trying to connect via my local machine to our install of the SOA services. I started with the project in http://www.imiscommunity.com/imis_soa_web_services_examples_15_1_3_7542_... and am able to get the net.tcp binding working just fine:
A couple questions.
1) The SOA services are setup by default with a netTcp binding. I noticed right away the configuration changes they had made (amazingly high maximum lengths), and I'm wondering if there's a listing of other example bindings anywhere, say for SOAP connectivity.
(If not, I'm just going to continue with the plan of modifying a base configuration, which I assume will be fine, but having worked with iMIS ...)
We have a number of custom administrative tools that we're moving into a separate, internal-only, Web site.
Currently the applications use their own ASP.NET authentication tables, but it would be ideal to leverage the information contained within iMIS directly. Not single-sign on, but sign-on validating against iMIS.
Since we've already got the site setup, I wanted an addition that would impact the site as little as possible. For that reason, I decided to first look at the Membership Web services - methods returned by the service and some detail on http://www.imiscommunity.com/use_the_membership_web_service as well - and see if we could successfully leverage that.
In eCM you could secure a piece of content but it would still show up for users who weren't logged in, as well as for logged in users who didn't have access.
It seems that with WCM if you don't have access to content, you don't see it (unless the link is hardcoded).
Is there a setting that anyone has found that switches this on/off?
Our content producer is still testing WCM and while trying to figure out when left-side navigation showed up (and whether that was something we could control, outside of putting every piece of content in a navigation item) he ran into the following:
We are testing WCM and I turned off Cookies with Firefox and received the following message:

For those individuals already using WCM and iMIS, what backup (and system maintenance) practices have you put into place?
We feel pretty confident about our SQL backup strategy, but the only items we're finding in the official docs are for SQL at http://docs.imis.com/15.1/index.asp?topic=/15.1/34128.htm and nothing regarding iMIS itself and the WCM sites.
After trying a 2 server installation in a test environment, and running into some major performance issues, we're attempting to run a 3 server install, which is a little closer to how we intend to end up; that's an iMIS app server, a database server, and a Web server.
The database server and iMIS app server seem to be setup just fine.
The WCM/Web server is something of a mess.
Since we've still got to investigate this a bit more, it sits here before posting as a bug ...
If you have a content folder that has tags associated with it, when you create a new record the inherited tags won't display.
I assume it's the same reason the Publish Location is incorrect (although it shouldn't even display if it's not correct, IMO, since some users I've worked with will copy the incorrect address, assuming it's correct).

Our content guy ran into an error while attempting to create a new piece of content.
Interestingly, he created the content record, saved it, then went back in and added HTML content to the document.
When attempting to save the record he got a message like
