I am facing a problem.

Please explain if this is possible or not.

1) I created a Service Library (.Net 3.5)

2) I created a Windows Service (.Net 3.5), added ServiceHost and implemented my ServiceLibrary to work as a TCP Endpoint.

3) Next I created a Console Client (.Net 3.5) and tried to get data from my TCP Endpoint…(svcutil….proxy.cs generation). Worked absolutely fine.

4) I have a Windows Client(.Net 1.1). How do I configure it to use this new Service? I can’t add Proxy.cs as it says that servicemodel cannot be found…

    You will need to use a basicHttpBinding, which is backward compatible and can be consumed by a .net 1.1 client. You should be able to find plenty of useful examples on the web: Consuming WCF with .Net 1.1 Basic Binding. For example, this Link describes that binding and usage of Soap 1.1 to make it compatible with .Net 1.1.

    For more details on different scenarios and the range of wcf configuration possibilities, try exploring this CodePlex Link, specifically the Application Scenarios section that provides details of different setups. I believe that you will require a basicHttpBinding rather than a netTcpBinding in order to work with legacy protocols. The netTCPBinding would assume that you have .NET 3.0 at both ends. See this MSDN Bindings Link.
