Remoting examples

[Sasidhar]

Hi All
Am trying to develope a vb.net application for window
My problem is that I need to develope a windows servic
which will activate a Dll upon request from client and
updat a database
The reason i need it call the windows service is that
only the user with permisssions to run the service sholud make the call to dl

How does Remoting fit into this

It is a multi user application..

Any ideas thoughts would be appreciate

Regard
Sasidhar

Hi,

IMO, Remoting and a web service are complementary functions, and are not
closely coupled. Remoting (normally) would be restricted to a local net or
intranet, while a web service only requires internet services and
connectivity.

It sounds to me as though your web service calling a Windows service should
work. However, you will have to come up with some sort of reasonable
security system -- you have opened a hole.

I think there are examples of both web services and remoting on

Hi Saidhar,

I think this is the nicest link to start with, I saw that the problem you
talk about (as far as I understand you) is even very detailed described in
the samples in this page.
