I want to connect to remote machine using windows phone 7.5. Is there any inbuilt classes in .net for this.
For regular desktop application same can be done using ServiceController class. I am looking for the similar class for windows phone application.
ServiceController is used to control state of services on local or remote machine.
WP apps don't have a way of controlling remote or local services.
You would have to write SOAP or REST API for managing services and then connect WP app to those, but do make sure it is secured properly - you don't want to give access to service control to everyone.

How can I notify a UWP app from remote server? Is it possible with Windows notification service, I don't want implement with cloud service. Is there any possibility?
Yes, That's absolutely possible. The server-side component can be any cloud hosted service or it can be your own custom implementation and hosted somewhere on your on-prem servers.
You can create a simple service using https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/apps/hh868252(v=win.10) and host that on your remote server.
I Want just to know how

I'm trying to create a WCF service that uses Integrated Windows Security and will be hosted on IIS7.
This service is going to be used inside a domain and will be consumed by a java client.
My questions are:
What bindings should I use ?
How do I set up Integrated Windows Security on IIS7? (not the same as IIS6)
How do I get the credentials inside the service (C#), that is, how to read the user name.?
Thanks,
Thomas
Our windows store app allows user to manage (create or dial) VPN profiles.
For this functionality we use
RAS Api (create and dial VPN profile)
RAS Api
Wlan Api (listen to wifi networks) - will be changed to classes with Windows.Networking.Connectivity in windows8
Wlan Api
We face following troubles for Windows Store application:
RAS API functions don't work properly under windows store application template (as example RasEnumDevices return error code 5 - Access Denied).
However it works good from desktop application launched on windows 8.
Question: how we could get RAS API to work under window store applications? If that is absolutely impossible - is there any other way to create VPN connection in app developed for Windows Store?
All user's VPN profiles stored by Windows OS in "..\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk", file could be found on file system manually, but we don't have access to this file via API, either we can't access it directrly. Current workarround uses own created PBK file located in users profile folder.
Question: how we could get access to system VPN connections stored in OS.
Thanks.

I have a windows service in which i host a wcf service.
What is the best approach to control the windows service via the wcf service? I already created the interfaces for the wcf service, but I have no idea how to interact with the windows service's classes and functions.
just to check that I'm understanding your problem correctly - you want to run a wcf service, so you create a windows service to host it, and you want your desktop client to be able to control the windows service (that's hosting the wcf service) by talking to the wcf service?
If that's the case, what is it that you're trying to do with the windows service? In some of the work I've done, I've set up the server such that there's the windows service hosting all the wcf services I want to run, and in order to interact with that windows service remotely (e.g. starting/stopping/restarting) I have another service running on the server (usually baked into the Amazon instance image so it's running on every new server that gets brought up) which my remote client can talk to instead. That way I have a means to trigger a service restart on all my servers without having to manually connect/remote desktop to each server. Of course, the second wcf service is secured by some means so it can't be exploited easily.
Is that the sort of thing you're looking to do?
