Remoring - beginner question

Well, at the end of the day, a file is nothing more that a sequence of
bytes so without giving it too much thought… my guess is that you
should be able to read the content of the file into something like a
MemoryStream object and be able to remote that object since
MemoryStream is serializable.

There is a ton of information about remoting so all you would have to
do is to Google remoting to get your answer.

Also, you may want to take a look at the WCF, I haven’t touch that but
it supposed to be better than the good old remoting.

Can I use remoting for file transfer?
Is there any refernce to that?

You can. Since a file can be send as a single argument
of type byte[].

But I would say that it is not optimal for the purpose.

HTTP or plain socket are more suitable.
