Hello.
I have a remote object hosted by Windows Service (not IIS). I want it to be
available over the web. How can i secure it by login/password? Or i have to
pass login and password as the parameters every time i call my remote
methods?

One of the most compelling reasons for using IIS to host your remote objects
is that you get security out of the box. You might find life a lot easier if
you reconfigure your remote objects to be hosted by IIS, or alternatively,
if that is impractical for some reason, code a new object which delegates
calls to your service and remote that from IIS.

Check this article from microsoft out.

Personally when I need security and I'm using stateful remoting
objects, I use encrypted channels and do my authorization manually at
the start.
