Hi,

I added a file server to our home network then moved
my C# project files to it. Visual Studio 2005 can
run those files from my laptop (Vista Premium) but
not my desktop (XP Pro). Under XP, VS complains
of the location is not trusted when the projects are
loaded and gives "SecurityException was unhandled"
when they are run. Both were setup identically with the
..NET Framework 2.0 Configuration tool:

Membership condition: URL
URL: file://servername/share/*
Permission Set: FullTrust

Anyone have any idea why this doesn't work on the
XP machine and how to fix it?

Thanks,
Gary

Forgive me if I'm stating what you already know, but first thing to check is
whether the server's share permissions AND the filesystem permissions give
the useraccount on each computer read/write access.

If there are no specific user-rights assigned then it may be that the
"creator owner" filesystem permission is in force, and is granting write
access solely to the user who uploaded the files. This may be why the second
computer cannot load the projects.

Beyond that, you'd be better asking a VS guru.
