Hi,

I'm completely new to web services, although I have already spent some
time reading documents that explain the basics. I would appreciate if
someone could answer these (I suspect) easy questions:

- The computer running an application that exposes a web service needs
to have a web server running. Right?
- The web server needs to be IIS? I have Apache 2.0.49 installed and
running on my machine. Can I easily use it?
- The computer running an application that consumes a web service does
not need to have a web server running. True?
- When I expose a web service, does the .NET framework handle
automatically multithreading?

Thank you.

Yes.
Not necessarily. There are web services for Java and other platforms as
well. Microsoft web services require IIS, though.
True. It can even be a desktop application, Pocket PC program, etc.
Yes.
