Include IIS in Windows Service
-
Is it possible to include the IIS into a Windows service? I would like to provide from my Windows Service also a Web Service Interface (maybe running on another port) that can use the objects in the Windows Service. I know that I could use .net remoting but I don't want to have another Interface, if it can be avoided. Thanks and Greets Roland

Maybe I have to explain a little bit better (or at least I try to...) I have a windows service that starts when the server is started. This windows service does its job in the background, receives data, makes function calls etc. and is allways running as it should. The windows service makes some function calls through web services. Now I want to create a web GUI that shows the state of the windows service, using asp.net, ajax etc. One way to get the data would be to communicate with the windows service through .net remoting. But as the other Interfaces are web services and therefor are easy to call for testing I would like to be able to receive the data from the windows service through a web service interface. But to be able to provide the interface as an web service I need a web server inside my windows service (or at least I think it could work like that). Hope my idea is now clearer.

Doesn't Remoting have an HTTP channel that uses SOAP?
