handleExternalEventActivity and MOSS

Hello,
I want to wait for an external event, in my proto type (without moss) I have done this with a handleExternalEventActivity
I trigger my external event via a local service.
I cannot see how todo with when WF is hosted in MOSS
any ideas?
Thanks
Steve

Thanks.
I think this is very poor.
The pattern that you are meant to use is, your activates communicate with your application via local services.
Due to the way MOSS hosts, this is not possible.
So.... WF without MOSS means we can use the correct pattern.
WF with MOSS, we have to use a bad pattern.
