Running a listener console app outside of VS.Net -- dotnet remoting

I have a strange incident happening when I'm doing development for .Net
remoting.

To implement the listener, I have a console project that just calls
RemotingConfiguration.Configure and then GetRegisteredWellKnownServiceTypes.
I then do a Console.Writeline and the window just sits there.

Then, I have a client app (in the same vs.net solution) that gets a
reference to the remote object and calls a function in the business object.

Everything works ok if I first start the listener app (while within VS.Net)
and then I start my client app from within vs.net.

However, if I try to run the listener.exe via command line, when I run my
client app, I can still get a reference to the remote object, but when I try
to call any of the remote object functions, the app hangs.

Is there a reason why I cannot just run the listener from the command line?

Thanks.

It sounds like the server is not registering any types.
Make sure the configuration file for the server is in the application
directory.
