I'm having problems with the telnet on a device, so wanting to run a program attached by serial port to the device and then have other machines access this by C# remoting. However, I can't seem to find a way to give the interface access to this local resource after setting it up?

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Runtime.Remoting;
using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels;
using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp;
using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Http;
using System.Net;
using System.IO;
using System.IO.Ports;

namespace C7_Serial_Server
{
	class C7_Serial
	{
		internal static SerialPort SP { get; set; }

		static void Main(string[] args)
		{
			Console.Write("Serial port: ");
			int SP_Location = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

			SP = new SerialPort("COM" + SP_Location);
			SP.BaudRate = 57600;
			SP.Open();

			AcceptConnections();
		}

		static void AcceptConnections()
		{
			HttpServerChannel tcpChannel = new HttpServerChannel(9996);
			ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(tcpChannel, false);

			Type commonInterfaceType = Type.GetType("C7_Serial_Server.Access");

			RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownServiceType(commonInterfaceType, "C7_Serial_Access", WellKnownObjectMode.SingleCall);
			RemotingConfiguration.CustomErrorsMode = CustomErrorsModes.Off;
		}
	}

	public interface SetProfile
	{
		Access.Info C7_SetProfile(Access.Setup Location);
	}

	public class Access : MarshalByRefObject, GetStats, SetProfile
	{
		

		[Serializable]
		public class Info
		{
			public string Equipment { get; set; }

			public Info(string Equipment)
			{
				this.Equipment = Equipment;
			}
		}

		[Serializable]
		public class Setup
		{
			public int Slot { get; set; }

			public Setup(int Slot)
			{
				this.Slot = Slot;
			}
		}

		public Info C7_SetProfile(Setup Location)
		{
			return new Info("Set");
		}
	}
}

I need the "SetProfile" command to access the serial port created by the console program, how is the best way to do this?

Thanks!
