Certainly, if you want a server to make a call to an object in a client that is behind a firewall, you cannot use TcpChannel. It is not designed for that. However, this is a limitation of the TcpChannel, not a limitation of Remoting. It is possible to implement a remoting channel that allows bi-directional communication between a firewalled client and a server. For example, a SMTP/POP3 based channel ;-). The remoting infrastructure is indeed very flexible.
