Hi David,
in remoting you have 2 types of remoted objects -
MarshalByReferenceObject and marshaled by value.
The first passes only a reference (proxy) to the server object.

All other classes, which are not MBR, and are marked Serializable, or
implement ISerializable interface are passed by value, I.e. a copy of
the class is send to client.

If you are going to use MBVs objects only, maybe WebService is a better
solution.
The true power of remoting is in MBRs, where the work is initiated by
the client, but done on the server.

Hope that helps
Sunny
