Standalone web service

Question

I want to create a standalone web service (running on a choose port) that doesn't require IIS. What's the best method? Which libraries should I use? I've heard of Indigo but I don't know much about it. Any suggestions? Thanks

Oh P.S Check out my post called Standalone Webservice Namespace and tell me if this would help you.

I personally would just write a TCP server that ran functions based on commands it was passed over a TCP/IP connection. This actually isn't that hard but the trick is establishing a standard way of communicating and how to take turns exchanging data. If you want me to write you an example just post back and I'de be glad to. -- Jim
