Disable IIS (including IISAdmin) and register Citrix XML as a service:
Ctxxmlss.exe /u80 (the same port 80 as with IIS) or assign a different port
to IIS for the time of the test - 8080.
If it works, you have IIS permission issue. If you do not use IIS and SSL
encryption is not an issue - kill IIS and use XML as a real service.
For SSL encrypted XML I like IIS though.
