Remote access to C# Application (Win) best approach?

Question

Would it be better to make some sort of internal Webserver and do it all over HTTP or to make the app to read remote files ? .. can't explain it better than this right now.

Got any good link's about this, please post :)

Answer 1

As michalczerwinski said, it's better to use some kind of network-based interface.

If you don't want to use IIS, you can make self-hosted application with WCF service: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms731758.aspx

Answer 2

Using remote files to stear the external application is not the best approach: it will introduce the delay and it's far from being efficient. Any network-based interface would be better. I would go with Remoting or WCF to host some simple interfaces, it might be via HTTP.
