Yes, Brant's statement is incorrect. If you want the full exception serialised to the client you should put the customErrors tag in the server .config file where I said and you should get the exception properly. This change was due to the tightening up of security for remoting, similar to the typeLevelFilter attribute of the binary serialiser.
I agree the message is a little misleading, and I'm not sure who should know about this, luckily there are some MS people on this list, so hopefully they will take the hint ;) > -----Original Message----- > From: J.
