The 32 page PDF provided some very nice foundation info for getting started with .Net remoting. However, the writer left out which .Net install would be most beneficial to work with (.Net remoting SDK version should be installed). Particularly when programming the Web Services example(received GetData function errors). Speaking of which, it contains an error in the DataSet command:objCmd.Fill(Ds,"notusers")
SHOULD BE WRITTEN AS
objCmd.Fill(Ds,"Users")
Otherwise the CB Component won't populate.
The only other problem really was the incorrect pathing to the databases used in the example, it was as if he copied the code, pasted it and rushed the PDF out the door. He could've at least prompted the user to change the path to the database.
On the whole he covered basic implementation and a very important security setup with the bin directory which was helpful and useful for future implementations.
I would recommend this PDF to more intermediate users of .Net and Remoting(only because of the errors), but beginners will find invaluable information regarding the technologies and nice overview to get them started. I would repost this PDF with the errors fixed so that developers new to these technologies will not get frustrated by the examples.
