Guys, this can't be for real
I'm trying to make a .NET 2.0 executable run from a network drive and it turns out that since Microsoft .net 2.0 has no mscorcfg.msc installed on server 2003, in order to get one I have to install the full SDK. I simply want to run the dang thing without downloading 350Mb piece of crap!
Sorry for rant… Anyone can think of an easy solution?
EDIT1: There seems to be a misunderstanding as to what is it that I want to achieve. This is for my test environment. I have many virtual machines and all I want is to just disable the dang security altogether. The task seems to be so trivial, yet it seems so far I have to deploy SDK, or 3.5 SP1, or some other multi-terabyte package to every machine in order to achieve it
Best Answer
You can configure the security with
caspol.exe, without needing the msc. However, it would be easier to use ClickOnce deployment ("publish") from VS2005 - this avoids most of the security issues with network shares (but can be hosted on a network share).
