It can not find the .config file as the message states. This file NORMALLY is in the same directory as the .exe, however you can
If you have the file in the same directory as the .exe and it is failing, then I would suppose that some code has already changed
Pick up the path name of the .exe at run time and use that path in the call to Configure.
RemotingConfiguration.Configure(System.Windows.Forms.Application.ExecutablePath + "\\.config");
If this is zero touch execution of a client from a web server you will need to generate a URI from the path
