I see. But I am using also a null value for the return value of
InitializeLifetimeService in the client, because I want the client to
keep connected until normal program termination (or CTRL-C hitted by the
user at the client machine), which will actually garbage collect the
whole process.
Snippet:
class Client : MarshalByRefObject, IClient
{
public override object InitializeLifetimeService()
{
return null;
}
/* methods of IClient interface... */
}

That's the thing I was unsure about, thanks for pointing out!
