Framework 2.0 Tools

Does anyone know if it is possible to adjust the .NET 2.0 Framework security without installing the SDK?

I know in .Net 1.x Framework - the tools are in the control panel. But all I have found is that they are now part of the SDK. Can I distribute the tools only into a smaller install package than the 300+mb SDK download?

My only need is to adjust security for the Local Intranet to full. My server admin does not want me to load the entire SDK on the Terminal server.

Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this.

I am just installing 2005 today so no experience with it but kleinma has allot of security experience in 2003 and he has been using 2005 for a while now. Perhaps he can help. I'll ask if he has time right now.

Thanks. It is easy when you are on the Development machine, because it installs the SDK with the security tools. But for rolling out the application, it was definitly easier in 1.1 because the Security Wizards were included in the .NET Runtime installation instead of the SDK.
Thanks again.

kleinma knows nothing.. except for the answer :wave:

The .NET Framework Configuration tool is a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in that allows you to manage and configure assemblies in the Global Assembly Cache, adjust code access security policy, and adjust remoting services. In the .NET Framework versions 1.0 and 1.1, Mscorcfg.msc is installed with the NET Framework redistributable package. Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0, Mscorcfg.msc is installed with the .NET Framework SDK.

what is funny is I actually DIDN'T know this until about 2 weeks ago when I had an issue and needed to look this info up.

See, I knew you would know the answer. :D I remembered you have done allot with security recently.


So youre saying that you didnt know the question? :D


Thanks for the reply Matt :thumb:

yeah because I write apps that actually go out into the real world. Its funny but I don't think that most (not all, but most) of our users ever have to deal with things like that... let me tell you, when apps go out in the field its a whole different ballgame... there is no consistency between customers.. everyones setup is different... I miss the days when I got to develop inhouse apps where I knew everyone was running the same system I was. :cry:

so - did you just install the SDK? Or did you find a work- around?

Thanks y'all.

I just installed the SDK. That was because it was just something I had to configure on another persons PC in my office.

If I was deploying this to a customer, I would run caspol from the setup (I use INNO installer) and give full trust to the path of my exe.

caspol - I'll take a look at that.
Thanks
