Conclusion

I have described the procedures to implement .net remoting in IIS. By hosting the server and client in IIS we can achieve the following benefits based on project implementation.

· Client web site does not need to bother about remote settings in config or code at minimum. It just requires adding reference to the proxy interface. However, if you want, you can use Client.exe.config for more setting.

· Client needs to be host once which can be accessed by as many users. It saves client application deployment time for each user/machine.

· Server and client automatically use the IIS security features, etc.

We can implement different features of remoting, such as SingleCall/Singleton, CAO, and SAO, etc. In my view, SingleCall SAO with Http channel and binary formatter suits best when hosting server side component in IIS.

I hope this article will be helpful for .NET programmers. Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Happy Programming!!!

Title: Another cause of 404
Name: Tangent
Date: 2011-03-31 9:47:15 PM
Comment:
Occasionally 404 can be caused by too much data has been sent to remoting server. Because there is a maxAllowedContentLength constraint which is by default set at 4MB, unless this setting is overridden, calling Remoting with serialized data potentially larger than 4MB would result a 404 error (non-sense but true). Check http://tangentlin.wordpress.com/2011/03/31/404-error-in-net-remoting/ for more details and solution.

Ok, It work well base on your description, But there are a mistake need to point out which in Web.config
"type="Server.clsServer,Server"

Not "clsServer", First I don't change it,it should be a Class "MyServer" in here, or else throw a exception:"Cannot load type Server.clsServer, Server Pin", Hope can help others.
Anyway, Good work with your clear explanations.

.NET remoting is actually great for free services we're hoping to provide like online radio stations where we're not considering security much. Still if we need to include sort of security it's better deal with IIS than .NET remoting.
I Appreciate good work with your clear explanations.

If you are getting a 404 error it means probably a mapping for the .REM extension doesn't exist or isn't mapped to the aspnet_isapi.dll I'm guessing you installed .NET prior to loading IIS, because it is done with the installation.

From the .NET command prompt run the following
aspnet_regiis -i

Thanks a lot for your article, some days wandering and i found only generic help. This article step by step guided me to a working solutions. Just two tips:
- explain better what you write in the web.config
- explain better the ways in which an ASP.NET page can call you (through global.asax activation and so on)

Thanks again,
Fabrizio

Title: for C# version

you can easily get C# version of code. Just try to use some convertor available free on internet. You need to put part of vb code and then you will get C# version of that code..
then use that code in your C# project.
