Hi all,

I have an application that I need to run from a network share, the server is
windows 2000 server the clients are windows XP.

Whenever I run the application from the share a get access problems when
trying to query anything such as computername.

when I run the same program from a local folder it executes correctly.

Is there a fix for this

the app is written in vb.net 2005 I can change the code, and I can change
the security settings on the computers.

thanks in advance.

Mike.

See http://blogs.msdn.com/shawnfa/archive/2003/06/20/57023.aspx for a
description of the problem and some approaches to resolving the issue.
Since you're using .NET 2.0, you also have the additional option of
deploying as a ClickOnce application that requests additional CAS
permissions. If you're interested in
