Has anyone setup the SLM/SQL/Inv Servers in a secure Forest/Domain then have the Service Gateway in a less secure Domain/Forest... but the users running the SLM reports would be in the Forest/Domain with the Service Gateway? Is there a best practice

Hi @John Heyden
The Gateway is for Inventory only while the reports come from the SLM server.
You have several solutions:
Pinhole your firewall on 443 restricted to your SLM server so that the SLM server can be accessed by users from your non-secure domain
Use the Report Export Scheduler so that the reports get dropped in a shared folder accessible from your non-secure domain (but the reports would be set in stone for those users, they could not edit the criteria)
Pinhole for RDP from non-secure to secure domain (probably the less secure solution)
... make wise use of certificates to harden the above solutions
Use a VPN solution to access one domain from the other
