Peter, I understand. I actually tried some remoting code as follows:-

1. Compiled SAO object into 1 dll and configured it on IIS on server with the help of config files.
2. Copied same dll into bin directory of client asp.net web app and configured remoting through web.config file on client by setting protocols channels etc.

It worked. Now if I use soapsuds I am presuming I will compile and copy the cs file generated into my client code and go from there. I remember I used to do that with wsdl.

One of the reasons I like hosting the remote object in IIS is to make use of load balancing at some point to load balance my application servers.

thanks


I don't understand what you're doing here. If you're saying that you have compiled your remote object dll into your client (i.e. your asp.net project has a reference to the server dll), then that is a mistake. As I've said, it is both insecure and will not work in some situations.

If you are saying you just copied the dll without referencing it then I have absolutely no idea what's going on.

Do you have the following lines (or their VB equivalent) somewhere in your code (hopefully in Application_start()):

string path = Server.MapPath("config_file_name");
RemotingConfiguration.Configure(path);

If you don't have at least the second line above then I don't see how you are configuring .NET remoting from a config file. I might even go so far as to suspect that you are not making a remote call at all - just a local one to the dll referenced in you client (assuming it is).

I'm sure you're doing just fine, but I'm interested to know how it's working.

Cheers

Peter
