Question

I am using wcf web service in my project (server-client) in local host mode and it works fine

now I need to connect to this service from another machine on the same local network

what should I change in the config file in my client ?

I changed the endpoint of my client to the IP of the machine that contains the local server and could not connect!

<endpoint address="http://10.131.40.22:8732/Design_Time_Addresses/WcfServiceLibrary_Test/Service1/"
                binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="WSHttpBinding_RepositoryManager"
                contract="onlineExchangeCenter.RepositoryManager" name="WSHttpBinding_RepositoryManager">
                <identity>
                    <dns value="localhost" />
                </identity>
            </endpoint>

Answer 1

What errors are you getting? The issue could be firewall related.

I generally expose a MEX endpoint at the server and then generate the client config files through SVCutil.
