RemotingException Authentication failure .net

Question

I've been trying to get this remoting communication between my components (both on the same pc) and I got a bunch of different exceptions, I really have no clue what's going on since I haven't used remoting in a loong time, maybe you can give me a hand.

here's the stacktrace of the exception:

System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingException was unhandled
  Message=Authentication failure

       InnerException: 

this is the code I use for the Remoting server:

BinaryServerFormatterSinkProvider formatServ = new BinaryServerFormatterSinkProvider();

//propiedades nombre y puerto del servidor
IDictionary props = new Hashtable();
props["name"] = "Canal";
props["port"] = 8989;
try
{
    TcpChannel channel = new TcpChannel(props, null, formatServ);
    ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(channel, false);
    RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownServiceType(
        typeof(FactoryPersistencia),
        "FabricaPersistencia",
        WellKnownObjectMode.Singleton
        );
    Console.WriteLine("Servidor de Remoting Levantado...");
    Console.WriteLine("Presione una tecla para terminar.");
    Console.ReadLine();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
    Console.ReadKey();
}

Here's the code I used for my client:

TcpChannel chan = new TcpChannel();
ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(chan, true);
RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownClientType(typeof(FactoryPersistencia), "tcp://localhost:8989/FabricaPersistencia");

FactoryPersistencia fabricaPers = FactoryPersistencia.getInstance();


IPUsuario ipus = fabricaPers.GetFachadaUsuario();

And here's the code to the Factory that's being called:

public class FactoryPersistencia : MarshalByRefObject
{
    //Singleton
    private static FactoryPersistencia instancia = null;

    public static FactoryPersistencia getInstance(){

        if (instancia == null)
            instancia = (FactoryPersistencia)Activator.GetObject(typeof(FactoryPersistencia), "tcp://localhost:8989/FabricaPersistencia");

        return instancia;
    }

    public IPUsuario GetFachadaUsuario()
    {
        return new PersistenciaUsuario();
    }
    public IPEvento GetFachadaEvento() { 
        return new PersistenciaEvento();
    }
    public IPAmistad GetFachadaAmistad()
    {
        return new PersistenciaAmistad();
    }
}

Thanks everyone and I'm sorry I couldn't get the colouring to work, this is actually my first question here.

Answer 1

Change ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(channel, false); to ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(channel, true); in your remoting server. Your client is asking for a secure channel but the server isn't providing one.

You can also remove RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownClientType(typeof(FactoryPersistencia), "tcp://localhost:8989/FabricaPersistencia"); from your client.
