Since remoting configuration can be in any file you have access to (it doesn't
need to be in an application configuration file), the easiest thing to do is
just put the config file in the same directory the assembly is installed in, and
then pass the path to that file to RemotingConfiguration.Configure.
You can call Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location from within your assembly
to determine what directory that is, and then just append the name of your
config file. Something like:
using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;
string configFile =
Path.Combine( Assemby.GetExecutingAssembly().Location,
"yourassembly.dll.config" );
RemotingConfiguration.Configure(configFile);
