Question

Is it possible to make a kind of transaction in this case ?

Answer 1

It depends on whether or not the remote services implements distributed transactions. If it does not, you can't -- you will have to code around to try to compensate for the previous transaction.

If the other server runs something like MSDTC and you're connecting though a web service that supports WS-Transactions, you should just be able to wrap your call in a TransactionScope object (from the System.Transactions assembly). It's rare that application service providers to this, though.
