I got the Remoting System running on Linux->Linux and Windows->Windows (with MS.NET on Windows and mono on linux), but I got errors when trying Windows->Linux or Linux->Windows.
Here's the Programm I use for testing: //Listener.cs using System; using System.Runtime.Remoting; using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels; using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp; using NRemotingType; namespace NRemotingTestServer { public class Listener { public static void GoListening() { GoListening(13100); } public static void GoListening(int port) { ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(new TcpChannel(port)); RemotingConfiguration.ApplicationName = @"RemotingTestServer"; RemotingConfiguration.RegisterActivatedServiceType(typeof(RemotableType)); Console.WriteLine("Listening for requests on port {0}. Press Enter to exit...",port); Console.ReadLine(); } } } ############################################################################ ######### //Client.cs using System; using System.Runtime.Remoting; using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp; using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels; using NRemotingType; namespace NRemotingTestClient { public class Client { public static void Connect() { Connect(@"localhost",13100); } public static void Connect(string serverAdress, int port) { Console.WriteLine("Connecting to server {0} at port {1}",serverAdress,port); ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(new TcpChannel()); RemotingConfiguration.ApplicationName = @"RemotingTestClient"; RemotingConfiguration.RegisterActivatedClientType(typeof(RemotableType),@"tc p://" + serverAdress + @":" + port.ToString()); RemotableType remoteObject = new RemotableType(); remoteObject.WriteToServerConsole("Hello this text is from the client"); } } } ############################################################################ ######### // RemotableType.cs using System; namespace NRemotingType { public class RemotableType : MarshalByRefObject { public void WriteToServerConsole(string sText) { Console.WriteLine(sText); } } } ############################################################################ ######### //MainClass.cs using System; using NRemotingTestServer; using NRemotingTestClient; namespace NRemotingTestApp { class MainClass { enum AppMode { Client, Server } static AppMode appMode; static string serverAdress = @"localhost"; static int port = 13100; [STAThread] static void Main(string[] args) { // check for command line arguments if (ParseArgs(args)) { Console.WriteLine("Using tcp channel"); // start server or client Init(); } } static bool ParseArgs(string []args) { // set the standard appMode to server // (if not set with parameters) appMode = AppMode.Server; for (int i=0; i<args.GetLength(0); i++) { switch (args[i]) { case "-server": appMode = AppMode.Server; break; case "-client": appMode = AppMode.Client; break; case "-s": serverAdress = args[i+1]; //skip the following server adress i++; break; case "-p": port = int.Parse(args[i+1]); //skip the following port number i++; break; default: Console.WriteLine("Unknown argument: {0}", args[i]); return false; } } return true; } static void Init() { switch (appMode) { case AppMode.Client: Client.Connect(serverAdress,port); break; case AppMode.Server: Listener.GoListening(port); break; default: break; } } } } ############################################################################ ######### When trying Windows-Linux I get the following error: D:\wilhelmp\RemotingTest\bin\Debug>RemotingTest.exe -client -s 192.168.0.1 Using tcp channel Connecting to server 192.168.0.1 at port 13100 Unhandled Exception: System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingException: Underlying socket was closed.
