Rick, Thanks for looking up.

I prefered typeinfo since it is a string and allowed no prior knowledge (this is a wrapper). But Interface would work as well. I have just tried with the interface but still same exception below. >I don't see how putting the assembly in the GAC or not would make a difference. I didn't think so either, except GAC requires signature public key, version... >Are you talking about the GAC on the server or on the client? Both in GAC >Also, try looking at the fusion log (fuslogvw.exe) after the exception is thrown for details of the problem. Not much help there. Attached at the end. But interesting the Fusion log is thrown for for the host application not Client.

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.
