Questions about obfuscation

So I learned all about strong naming and how that is a good thing.

Then I learned the my assemblies can be decompiled with the SDK and how that
was both good and bad.

So I learned about obfuscation and how glorious that was.

Then I learned that one has to delay sign strong named assemblies and the
sign them AFTER obfuscation.

So I learned how to do such neat things with my windows applications.

But I cannot figure out for the life of me how to do that with a web
application who's backend referenced DLLS are delay signed. How do you
obfuscate and then sign after building when they are now on a server? Is
there an automated process that I missed someplace?

Thanks!
Derek

I use a product http://www.xenocode.com/en/.
Obfusicates and encrypts.... and allows you to sign your apps.

After building they are in the development machine yet, aren´t they? Then
you obfuscate, sign and move them into the production server. Am I missing
something?
