webservices from winforms

[Alex]

is it possible to expose a webservice from a winform application ?
i saw that on a MSDN Briefing and i can't find anything related on the
web.
the demo was for .net 3.0 but i think it is possible to do it from 2.0
too.
the guys where doing some config stuff, (the port, etc) from app.config

The guys were probably demonstrating Windows Communication Foundation, which
is part of .NET 3.0. You can not host ASP.NET Web Services outside IIS, so
you will definitely need to use .NET 3.0 to expose web services from
winforms application (using WCF)
Try http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/netframework/aa663324.aspx where you
can learn more about wcf.
