Isn't Activator.CreateInstance() only for CAOs? I think you should
Activator.GetObject(). Here's a basic tutor:
http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/dotnetremotingbasictutor.asp

I've got a server activated object (SAO), in singleton mode (hosted in a
server Console application on same machine as client). On the client, I can
instantiate serveral instances via Activator.CreateInstance, and each
instance maintains its own state correctly (via properties on the object).
This is what I want! However, it's not the way I understand and read that
Singletons are supposed to work (all mention of it indicates that state will
be shared across ALL instances).

Can anyone confirm that I can rely on this stateful type of operation?

Thanks.

P.S. I'm using .NET 2.0.

Right, we might be doing CAOs even though we configured for SAOs. That
matches with the behaviour we're seeing. Thanks for the insight.
