dotnet web services enhancements : 2-way communications

hello,

Is it possible for a web service solution to enable full 2-way
communications e.g

Have the client contact the server to send information at anytime

Have the server contact the client to give it instructions at anytime

Please note - my clients will not have fixed IP addresses and may exist on
private networks (therefore having private IP addresses) - the only way I
think I can do this is to create a TCP webserve application - am I on the
right track??

Thanks for your help

paul,

Thanks for the reply. I think I have already been looking at something like
this - I have played with the tcp examples that came with WSE 3.0.

The thing I could not work out though was how the server would initiate a
conversion with the client. I think this was possible if the client is not
behind a firewall - or can be used as an end-point - but many of clients will
have private IP address. Does this make it impossible.?

Hi Matthew,

Web Service Enhancements (WSE) 3.0 supports a duplex sequence since it
implements the WS-RM specifications. For more information see
