Remoting + Firewalls

[Alexandre Brisebois]

Hi,
I have currently developped a small test app for remoting,
it currently works great if the firewall is turned off.
how do i deal with firewalls ?

i currently am using onecare on my dev machine and the server will be
local and the client will be remote how do i go though the firewall ?

best regards,
Alexandre Brisebois

What channel do you use? Generally firewalls aren't blocking port 80, that is HTTP channel can be used.

I currently run IIS and when I try to run it on 80 i get exceptions.
and im using the http channel.

Then you can configure firewall not to block the port your channel is using...
For test purposes, you can switch IIS on the other port and try http channel in 80 port.
