If your server is written using WCF, then IIS is the easiest way to expose it.

please tell me how to publish wcf using IIS and how to access it remotely

and what about if the server is windows form application?

The server is conceptually separated from host. You write a server and you host it. You can host a WCF server in any process: console/windows app, windows service or IIS. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb332338.aspx
How to expose your endpoint it's another matter. You don't actually need IIS to expose a WCF service, but I think you'll need a static IP.
On another topic, you can build a web application to send messages/commands to your service.
It would be useful if you explain what you did.

i read in WCF

i make wxf service and publish it using IIS 7 now i can access the service through my local network

how can i access it through internet without using VPN network

I can't help you with this, but I think you need a public IP address. Replace the computer name with IP address in WSDL bindings and I think it should work.
