Michele,

What are the minimum computer requirements needed in order to support ws-* bindings? I think I need the .NET framework 2.0 and some type of WSE redistributable, but I'm not sure.

Thanks,
Dave

PS - I've posted at least two errata reports on O'Reilly's web site for your book, but it continues to show no errata. It's very discouraging and I've stopped sending errors to their web site because nothing is being posted. Most of the errors I found were in Chapter 1 and due to changes made between the Visual Studio 2005 November CTP and the Orcas March CTP.

Michele,

My last post was as clear as mud, so let me try again.

We have a lot of control over what is installed on our servers, but NOT as much control over the client's computer. In order to reduce the amount of software the client needs to install, I would appreciate your input on these questions:

Background:
I can develop a .NET 2.0 client application that talks to a remote .NET 3.5 WCF service that exposes a basicHttpBinding endpoint. A client’s computer in the scenario needs my .NET 2.0 application and the .NET 2.0 framework.

Questions:
If I want to develop a .NET 2.0 client application that talks to a remote .NET 3.5 WCF service that exposes a wsHttpBinding endpoint, will I need to develop the application using .NET 2.0 with the WSE extension at a minimum? What are the minimum software requirements on the client's computer? I assume my application, the .NET framework 2.0 and some type of WSE redistributable. Is this correct?

Michele,
My company doesn't use a product (such as Orcas/VS2008) until it's been released. So if we want to use WCF with VS2005 the only option I've found is the WCF/WPF CTP extensions for VS2005. Has there been a release of these extensions or is a CTP as far as Microsoft is going to take the WCF/WFP extensions for VS2005 since VS2008 is right around the corner. If we write WCF services using VS2005 and the CTP extensions do you anticipate a number of issues when upgrading to VS2008? Since Microsoft doesn't support the VS2005 CTP extensions we are leery about using them.

Why the lame Live Meeting requirement to access this? Why not just link to the WMV directly? You want to get this out and have people view it right, so why the annoying barrier?

Help, how to view thse recordings offline. Facng problem:
I installed Live meeting offline wrapper,
When i download it says, "Connection to the server was reset". At first it did after 2 Mb, then everytime around 3MB.

I must ditto the comments about offline viewing. I just now heard about these webcasts, and I was sad to find that I have already missed a few. Being about half-way through your book I think it would be an awesome augmentation to my learning with these 15 resources. My days are generally too hectic to participate mid-morning.

Thanks for the great content, I really appreciate what you bring to the .NET community!

Hi Michelle!

Really enjoying your series on WCF - you've done a great job on structuring this so far. Really appreciate all the work you have put into this!!

I went to get the 6th webcast from MSDN and there seems to be some problem with that lecture - it's only 867kb in size. Is there any way you can check with MS to see if they still have your original recording and have them put it out there again? I sure hope it's not lost to all.

Again - always enjoy your work and thanks for all you do for the community.

regards,
Bill

Hi Michelle,

Your book and Web Cast series are excellent, but what happened to the hosting cast :-(.

I like the scenario based secruity model in your book but I think you could go further. A typical enterpise application may have many types of communication that may need to go though a firewall. A simple application may have internet facing web sites, application servers, out going gateways that call external services, incoming gateways that allow external businesses to make incoming calls. The variety of security and binding requirements I think do not fit easily into the intranet or internet breakdown.


Antway thanks for an excellent book.

David,

I will check the errata site. Unfortunately I don't get notifications from that site, so I was unaware of your posting until I read your post here. Sorry for delay but I'm catching up on two years writing a book...with no time off :)

Regarding system requirements for client communicating with WCF services using wsHttpBinding, you will need WSE 3.0 at the client. WSE 3.0 is wire compatible with WCF. The exact configuration of course depends on how you configure wsHttpBinding. I recommend you disable secure sessions and negotiation, you'll probably enable UserName token and provide a server certificate for message protection. The WSE client will also pass UserName token, and will need to know the server public key. Feel free to email me if you have an exact configuration you are trying to get working.

Regarding viewing the webcasts without Live Meeting I am asking Microsoft if they can provide this support. I really have no control over this other than to ask...but I think it will be possible (crossing fingers). Stay tuned here.

Regarding the "Hosting" webcast, there was a problem with the original recording, we recorded it again last week so it should be up any time now.

Hi Michele,

Just wanted to say thanks for putting together such a great webcast and book. I thoroughly enjoyed them all and now have my Dev Team working through them as well.

Hi Thanks for the great vides. I just have one comment with your site. It's hard to distinguish between a link and a line because of the color scheme. Hope you don't take this offensive. -j525600

Hi Michelle,

Nice collection of webcasts. Looks like these are not available on the Microsoft site anymore. Are they mirrored elsewhere?

Thanks!
