Followup to Visual Studio debugger issues on a UNC share

a.k.a. 'I want to develop .NET projects on a remote drive!'

Will not be too detailed - doing this from memory.

1. Ensure the site's .webinfo or .csproj file contains the path to the HTTP path to the UNC share.
e.g. You have it on \\192.168.1.2\w$\dev\projects, where the webroot is pointing to \dev
The path in the above files should be http://192.168.1.2/projects/

2. Open up your .NET security configuration tool (in control panel). This should work for 1.1. and 2.0.

3. Go to Runtime Security Policy; Code Trust.

4. Under Local Intranet, add a new code group.

5. Call it dev server or whatever.

6. Select URL, and enter file://192.168.1.2/w$/dev/projects/*

7. Select Full Trust.

8. Save, and be sure to RESTART visual studio.

9. Success will be evident if VS doesn't complain about the project existing in a non-trusted area.

Leave me a comment if you need any more info/help.
