I am using the System. ServiceModel.Syndication and linq to creat an RSS
Feed. Everything works fine locally but remotely i get the following error.
Is adjusting the trust level the only way around this or can add some
attribute to the class or is there another option. Trust level adjusting not
an option since on shared hosting. The code for the rss feed folows the
error message.
Thanks
