Streaming in C#2.0 IIS 5.1: localhost vs computer name

Question

I am trying to create a webservice that returns streaming data. For that I created a demo webservice, set HttpContext.Current.Response.BufferOutput = false and I am writing to the same repsonse a few jpeg files flushing in between.

On the client side I am doing loHttp = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(Url); loWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)loHttp.GetResponse();

now, if the url is http://localhost I get the information streaming as i want. However, if the url is http://[mycomputername] then I get the information buffered, and only when all the jpegs are written only then do I get a response. The only difference is how I access the computer.

What should I be configuring so I get a streaming experience also when accessing remote computer? Thanks!

Answer 1

Ok, found the culprit.

I was running fiddler in the background and it intercepted and buffered the response.
