I'm new at this. We have a new win2003 server that's setup in a remote
location. I have access to it with admin rights.

How do I set things up so that I can edit dotnet projects on it?

I'd like to access things through a share. I don't want to use frontpage
extensions.
 
You can use terminal server effectively, which allows you to log in to the
server as though you were local to it. That's normally how I develop on a
remote server. You get two Terminal licenses for free with Win2K3, so if
you don't have to share with lots of other folks, this is already there.

If you have .NET locally, you can just edit locally and deploy to the server
to run. It doesn't sound like that is the option you want to explore,
though.

Note: be aware of line security. There may be a way to tell Terminal
Services to encrypt the transmission, so if you are accessing across a
network that you don't completely trust, you may need to look deeper into
configuration for terminal services.

Good Luck,
--- Nick
