On the client, if you're going to use 'Connect' to access your remote object
(as opposed to 'new MyRemotableObject'), then you can access it using an
interface (which you appear to want to do anyway). Instead of doing "typ =
Type.GetType(typeinfo)" on the client, you probably just want "typ =
typeof(IMyinterface)". I assume that RemotableObject implements
IMyinterface (since thats what you're casting the proxy to on the client),
right? By connecting using the interface type, you're requiring only the
interface assembly (not the implementation) to be present on your client.
I don't see how putting the assembly in the GAC or not would make a
difference. Are you talking about the GAC on the server or on the client?
Also, try looking at the fusion log (fuslogvw.exe) after the exception is
thrown for details of the problem.
