    public interface IHelloGreeting
    {
        [OperationContract]
        string Hello(string name);

            using (var svh = new ServiceHost(typeof(HelloGreeting)))
            {
//                svh.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IHelloGreeting), new NetTcpBinding(), "net.tcp://localhost:8000");
                svh.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IHelloGreeting), new NetNamedPipeBinding(NetNamedPipeSecurityMode.None), "net.pipe://localhost/WCFHelloServer/HelloGreeting");
                svh.Open();

                Console.WriteLine("SERVER - Running...  Press <Enter> to quit");
