[dba-VB] Web Service - Page Not Found Error

I was having a problem getting a .NET web service deployed so I thought I'd run a test on a very simple service to see that I was able to get a response back from the service.  I created a service with two functions AddEm and SubtractEm which adds or subtracts 2 integers and returns the result.  Works fine on my dev box but when I deployed it on our live web server I get an error  404 Page Not Found when the Invoke button is clicked on the .asmx page calling either function.  I then copied the app to another local server (my old desktop machine) and it works just fine.

In talking to one of our networking consultants he asks the following questions that I don't have answers to.  If anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

1.What protocol/port number is the server application (web service??) using?
2. Does the web server create a new session or respond to a request from a web service within the same session?

If you want the link to the live service or the service itself to try on your own machine I'd be glad to send it.  It's a pretty trivial service and I don't believe there's anything wrong with it as it does almost nothing.

Thanks,
