HOW TO: Host the Visual J# .NET Remoting Service Sample Application on Internet Information Services (819605)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Internet Information Services version 6.0
  • Microsoft Visual J# .NET (2002)
  • Microsoft Visual J# .NET (2003)

SUMMARY

This step-by-step article discusses how to host the Remoting Service sample application in Internet Information Services (IIS). This sample application is included with the Visual J# .NET 2003 documentation.

We recommend that the remoting service be hosted before the client consumes the service. To do this, compile the service as a dynamic link library (DLL), and then register the service in IIS.
