Hello all,

We have an application here which we are migrating from WIN32/C++ to .NET
This tool can be used by our client and launch from a network share :
The user install it on one server and any workstation can run the tool
by \\SERVER\Tools\Tools.exe

When dealing with .NET, it seems there is some security which forbid by
default to run a .NET exe from a network share.
What is the solution and which action must be done on workstation by our
client to be able to run this .NET exe from the server share ?

Best regards,
Frédéric

Hi,

what you encountered is a Code Security
issue and you have to deal with the Runtime
Configuration of your System and Code. It is
called "Code Access Security". Read this for

Thanks for all these links, very very interesting :-)

My conclusion, is that an action MUST be done on any computer wanted to
access and run this executable from the network share.
(There is different way to achieve this action, manually or
automatically depending on our solution...)

Thanks again,
Frédéric

Hi,

this behavior has been changed with .NET 2.0 SP2. Once installed, you can
launch programs from a network share like you can from a local harddrive.

Kind regards,
Henning Krause
