Communication with a .Net service

Aside from remoting, what are my options for programming communication
between an applicaiton and a .Net service? I want more than just the
custom command interface, as I also need to be able to pass in a block
of data on which the service is to act.

What about an http/XML based web service?

You can use (some) complex data types that way.

Web interface is not really under consideration. None of the existing
code is web based, and my understanding is that these web services
require IIS to be active on the server, which is not currently a
requirement of our product.

Perhaps I need to clarify that the majority of the code that will be
communicating with my .Net service is legacy C++ code.

theres nothing stopping your service accepting socket connections, you can
pass it what you like as a string of data but you'll need to work out a
format.
