I am creating a client/server application that connects via .NET remoting and I'm using TCP. I have 2 config file for client and server. The config file and the server application runs good. But for the client, it runs even though the server is offline and no port is open listening. I've gone through quite a lot of example and don't really know whats happening. This is my client config file.

Can we configure remoting for the LAN? I studied it halfway but I realised that its for web, but I think it can be possible for LAN too.
View 2 RepliesI currently had a .Net Remoting Application running on Framework 2 under IIS. I have to upgrade it to Framework 4 in order to use some new components. I have been able to set everything up and running smootly on Framework 2, but as soon as I change to Framework 4, I get the following exception when I try to call one of the function of my remote object.
The input stream is not a valid binary format. The starting contents (in bytes) are: 53-79-73-74-65-6D-2E-52-75-6E-74-69-6D-65-2E-52-65
This bug is not the real bug, it is caused by the fact that the remote object is throwing an exception, and IIS wrap the exception in XML, which throws the BinaryFormatter off.See this for more info on the bug.
This is very unfortunate because I cannot see what is causing the exception, and having never used any Remoting before, I do not have much ideas as to where to start debugging. It seems the Exception is thrown before even stepping in the code because I do a fair amount of logging and none of it seems to be triggering.Basically, I'm looking for some clues or pointer from people that encountered similar problems:
What could be causing the exception when no code has changed besides Compiling from .Net 2 to .Net 4?How can I get the full Exception message that is returned?

I have downloaded an application that uses .net remoting.
The problem is that I don't know how to configure it to communicate over the internet.
From the blog [url] says to set the tcp 192.168.1.100 . As far as I know this is the intranet IP. My external IP is different. Do I need a server or a Static IP from my provider?
I have an Addin for MS Excel which needs a singleton to share data amongst modules.Depending on the version of Excel (2003, 2007, 2010), and how Excel was started, it calls my addin from different, unpredictable AppDomains, which prevents the classic singleton approach.Creating a custom AppDomainManager won't work because Excel has already created the AppDomains before the addin is called.
Linking to mscoree to enumerate domains breaks the addin registration process (and I really don't want that anyway); there doesn't seem to be any other way of enumerating, so that isn't an option either.The only solution that I've found is to use remoting. Here's my test rig:
Imports System.Runtime.Remoting
Imports System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels
' Remeber to add reference to System.Runtime.Remoting DLL[code].....
Once everything is running, access to the singleton takes ~100µS, which is perfect. I can live with the ~400mS the first time each AppDomain is initialised. The problem is at startup, where the remoting invocation takes ~2.5 seconds.

View 3 RepliesWe have a client server application that 650 users are using everyday. Lately they have started complaining about over all slow responses and slowdowns in normal application usage like searching, reporting etc.We are using .NET Framework 3.5 and .NET Remoting is the technology we have used for client connection to the server side. We can't remove that and use something else due to legacy application maintenance. We are using SQL 2008 R2 x64 on a very good server.We have gone though the basic steps of making sure that all the SQL side is ok everything is well tuned but we need to convenience the client that it is not the application but the database that needs to be regularly maintained by a DBA in order for it to run smooth due to the nature of the application making tons of changes and inserts in the database everyday.
Anyways I need to write some sort of module that can plugin into the .NET Remoting calls so it can log the normal usage of different methods on the server like;* How many times a remoting method is called* What params a remoting method is called with* How much time it takes to execute each remoting callIs there anything available in .NET Framework that can help me? I read something about .NET Remoting Sync but not too sure if that is what I need to use? If any can shed any light on the subject or nudge me in a right direction with some sample code, that would be great.
after my last post i dove into remoting to try to solve my performance problem in a client-server fashion.
This works very well, but i come across a big problem which i don't seem to get solved.
I made a well known singleton servicetype on the server that retrieve all customers. Whith 1 db connection this works fine. But very often customers and i use in 1 sql instance multiple databases (for each administration a separate db). so the whole purpose of a singleton object is hereby destroys as soon i connect in my class to a different db. Is there some way to overcome this for example threading or running multiple servers (for each db it's own server-application)?
i am working on a project that i have to retrieve data and send data to a database over the network. I am using .net remoting i have successfully retrieved a dataset and attached to a datagridview. The problem is how to update the database from the datagridview over the network using .net remoting.

How to build the n'tier application. I have read some book tell about this, like "Building Client/Server Applications With VB.NET" by Jeff Levinson, beth massi video tutorial "building simple n-tier applications", and other else.
In my practice, i create 3 projects to handle each layer progress. That are DAL (Data Access Layer), BLL(Business Logic Layer) and UIL (User Interface Layer).
My problem is i don't want to use web service like beth massi do, and i don't want to use remote object like Jeff L do. So i decide to create it by my rules. Here above something that i do.
In DAL Section, I put all datasource like Beth Massi do over here. I also create a manager class like massi do to handle datasource over here. Also in this class, i create the UML structure of this datasource.

I have to connect same type of remote objects on different destination using .net remoting. For example, I have a database access middle layer on a remote server and local server. But both are same type object. but the remote destination addresses are different. So how to connect it using .NET Remoting?
View 1 RepliesI am struggling with this issue for serveral days now.My application needs to work like wsus (windows updates) does. On a certain event triggered by a windows service working under SYSTEM account it needs to show a (second) form under the user context.The IPC Remoting works fine so I think my issue is in the threading.When I use form2.Show() form2 appears but the form freezes.When I use form2.ShowDialog() the form appears but I cannot get the focus on it.
Service running under system account (in this example a simple console application)

At present I have wrote an application (in-house CRM, vb .net 2010) which allows me to send emails under the selected customer & I categorised these emails.As these are categorised I can return data to display email history in my program by using search criteria:
Dim oMail As Outlook.MAPIFolder = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderSentMail)
Dim sSearch As String
sSearch = "[Categories] = '" + "[" + tAccount.Text.Trim + "]" + "(" + tShipTo.Text.Trim + ")'"
Dim oItems As Outlook.Items = oMail.Items.Restrict(sSearch)
However the limitation to the above is it only looks at sent items & no other folder.My ideal solution would be to display all email correspondence for a certain contact.
