Send data from .NET application to Rails application

Question

How can I send data from a Windows .NET application to a Rails application? The .NET application continously collects data from some workstations and periodically needs to send the data to a database. I will like to have the Rails application authenticate the sending .NET application and parse the receiving data before storing it in a SQLite database. Thanks.

Create a web service in Rails and call it using .NET.

Info on creating a web service in Rails at this previous question: how to create a web service

Calling a web service in .NET is easily Googlable (but here's a good place to start: Consuming REST based web services in .Net).

This can be done with a web service. This SO thread does a good job of explaining it
