W2K SP4 breaks no-touch deployment

[Sean Kessinger]

Thanks, John. Here is the article:

I tried the suggestions from this article but still the same problem.
No-touch deployment works on Win2K SP3 but keep getting page not found if
the web server has Win2K Pro SP4.

Sean,

If I were you, I'd look for the KB article describing the changes in SP4. I
don't recall the KB#, unfortunately. I'd then look for descriptions of
security changes.

You also might try to change the subject of your post to something more like
"W2K SP4 Broke My Code". I almost didn't read your original post simply
because I happen to know that zero touch deployment does work.

Hello,

I am trying out the procedure below to create a .NET Zero deployment app
from this article:
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/07/NetSmartClients/)



<<Using the New Project dialog, choose either a C# or a Basic Windows
application and call it DeploymentFun.

Drag and drop some controls from the toolbox, but before going too far,
compile your application.

In the shell explorer, navigate to your DeploymentFun\bin folder,
right-click on the Debug folder, and choose Properties.

Choose Web Sharing and turn it on, using DeploymentFun as the name of the
share.

Now surf to your Windows Forms app using Start | Run and the following URL:
http://localhost/DeploymentFun/DeploymentFun.exe.>>



I am creating the DeploymentFun app as suggested with VB.NET but keep
getting page cannot be found when I try to execute as the URL above; the exe
runs fine if I just double-click on it in Explorer or in the virtual
directory from within Internet Services Manager. The exe is nothing but a
hello world app, a single form, that's it.

I am using VS .NET Version 2002 on Windows 2000 Professional SP4.

Thanks,

Sean K
