I can access the WS outside of VS 2005 with no problem (from Stylus Studio
or IE). Trying to add a web reference from VS doesn't work. At the same
time the service displays it's methods the "Web services at this url" box
displays this message:
Unable to connect to the remote server

A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly
respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because
connected host has failed to respond.

The add button is disabled.

So, it seems like a timing issue w/in VS.

Any thoughts?

I added a bug notice to connect.msdn.com, but they couldnt recreate.

The only work-around I have found is to install VS on the server where the
WS is hosted.
