How do I call an assembly across the network?

hi there,

Quick question. I am new to .Net and was wondering if anyone can point
me to the resource on the web or may be explain how I can use an assembly
installed on another server? I have a multi-tier application which consists
of several layers -
2 of which are installed on different servers. Now ... say if my business
layer wants to call
a database layer(which resides on a different machine) how do I do that?
In COM+ that was fairly simple - all I had to do to write/create a proxy
application.
Thanks a million,
Dmitry

There are lots of ways you *could* do this, including:

- Remoting (http://tinyurl.com/7z6p)
- XML Web Services (http://tinyurl.com/2yxq8)
- Raw sockets

Given your situation, I would recommend that you continue to use COM+.
COM+ is definitely not made obsolete by .NET. Rather it has become easier
and more powerful. In .NET, COM+ components are referred to as "serviced
components".
