Abstract: A remoting client and a remoting server are described. In one embodiment, the remoting client has a client remote access application, a client invoker, a marshaller, and an unmarhaller. The client remote access application provides a version indicator of the client remote access application and receives a version indicator of a server remote access application. The client invoker generates an invocation request including the version indicator of the client remote access application. The client remote access application determines a compatible version between the client remote access application and the server remote access application based on the version indicator of the client remote access application and the version indicator of the server remote access application.
