http://blogs.msdn.com/dphill/archive/2004/02/04/67688.aspxI got some great feedback on my article on what a smart client so smart. Thank you everybody. I also got a couple of questions about No Touch deployment so here are some more details... There is a quirk with NTD in that it does not check the version ofen-USCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)http://blogs.msdn.com/dphill/archive/2004/02/04/67688.aspx#70835Tue, 10 Feb 2004 20:45:00 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:70835Greg RobinsonDavid, we cannot do any kind of Windows Authentication. Our users may be at home, on the road or in the office. In all cases, they need to be able to downlaod the dlls 'over the wire'. I'd like to be able to authorize who is trying to download the dlls prior to letting them download them. I also have concerns where someone is fired and they still have the app on an off site machine (home desktop or laptop). How can one block this 'fired' person from still using the app? <br> <br>We will be using HTTPS to 'secure' the data transport over the wire. http://blogs.msdn.com/dphill/archive/2004/02/04/67688.aspx#134305Tue, 18 May 2004 18:34:00 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:134305Greg RobinsonDavid, we are not using IE to download the assembly. We are using an exe that calls Assembly.LoadFrom. It seems to me that doing this cause the If-Modified_Since check to fail, or not work. Is this correct? Do we have to download\deploy with IE to get this behavior to work?
