Hi,

I am just trying to figure out some basics with WCF and I've hit a snag.

I went through a tutorial and created a client-server on my local machine. Now, I want to move the service exe (called service.exe) to a different computer and connect to that.

Can anyone help me here or is there a better way of doing this? I won't be able to install IIS on the server.

Thanks.
