Common Web functions dll (Used to use MTS, what do I use in .NET

[Guest]

In VB6 I would build a dll and have it use MTS/Component Services on a
seperate server to allow me to access the functions from the dll anywhere on
the network.
Now with ASP.NET and VB.Net, I am confused as to how I can go about this
without making everything a web service. I would like to make a custom (web)
control available anywhere on the network. Is this possible

Thanks for any advice,
Jeff

Hi Jeff

If i understand you right:

You want to create a (web)control and deploy it to one server and use it
from a different server to without deploying it there?

- I think thats not possible, but you can write an auto updating control -
if deployment is the issue

Yes, deployment as well as updating is the issue. I have a custom web control
that is going to be used in many applications. This means that I have to copy
it to several bin folders and then when I make a change, I have to go back
through and remember each bin folder to replace the existing dll.

..net supplies three options:

1) host in mts (not recommended)
2) host as a webservice
3) host with .net remoting (usually you make it a nt service)
