The dot Net 2 based VB.NET app works fine when used on the server
When used by any machine other than a machine loaded with VS on the
newtork it fails with this error:

************** Exception Text **************
System.Security.SecurityException:

sKey, String& sDefault, String& sIniFile)

The type of the first permission that failed was:
System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission
The demand was for:
<IPermission class="System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission,
mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"
version="1"
Flags="UnmanagedCode"/>

The Zone of the assembly that failed was:
MyComputer

The code in question is calling processes for reading INI files


How do I give the necessary permission, and to whom on what?
 
Why using INI files where config files are enough?

Thanks and have a nice day
