.NET Remoting :: Requested Service Not Found

[Airslash]

Hello,

I'm making a Windows Service that runs in the background and handles the .NET Remoting part on the server. This is the code currently available for my service when it starts.

protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
        {
            // Write in the EventLog of Windows that the remote service for BigBrother is starting.
            EventLog.WriteEntry("BigBrother Remote Service -- Starting up the Service.");
 
            // Create a new TCP channel for our service to listen on.
            TcpChannel channel = new TcpChannel(3000);
            EventLog.WriteEntry("BigBrother Remote Service -- Channel created on port 3000");
 
            // Register the channel so clients can remote access it.
            ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(channel, true);
            EventLog.WriteEntry("BigBrother Remore Service -- Channel registered.");
 
            // Register our RemoteManager class so clients can talk to it and perform
            // tasks.
            try
            {
                WellKnownServiceTypeEntry srvcEntry = new WellKnownServiceTypeEntry(typeof(RemoteManager), "tcp://localhost:3000/BigBrotherRemoteService", WellKnownObjectMode.SingleCall);
                RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownServiceType(srvcEntry);
                EventLog.WriteEntry("BigBrother Remote Service -- Listener successfully registered.");
            }
            catch (Exception Ex)
            {
                EventLog.WriteEntry("BigBrother Remote Service -- Failed to register the Listener :: " + Ex.ToString());
            }
        }
 

This is the code of the object beeing made avaialble for remoting:

public class RemoteManager : MarshalByRefObject
    {
        public RemoteManager()
        { }
 
        public String Test()
        {
            return "Remote Manager greets you.";
        }
    }
 

and this is the code that I'm using in the client application to connect to the service and try to execute the Test() method.

static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // Create a channel for communicating with the remote object.
            TcpChannel channel = new TcpChannel();
            ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(channel, true);
 
            // Create an instance of the remote object.
            BigBrother_Remote_Library.RemoteManager manager = (BigBrother_Remote_Library.RemoteManager)Activator.GetObject(typeof(BigBrother_Remote_Library.RemoteManager), "tcp://localhost:3000/BigBrotherRemoteService");
 
            // Use the object.
            if (manager.Equals(null))
            {
                System.Console.WriteLine("Failed to retrieve the remote object.");
            }
            else
            {
                System.Console.WriteLine("Calling the Test function on our object.");
                System.Console.WriteLine(manager.Test());
            }
 
            System.Console.ReadLine();
        }
 

the code of the object in question is located inside a DLL file and has been referenced from the other projects. The code compiles but when I execute the client I recieve : The Requested Service cannot be found.

What am I doing wrong/forgetting?
