Package and Deployment

Hello,

Does anyone know of a "best practice" for deploying an application in an intranet for .NET
I was going to create an install package for the exe, but that would seem like a maintenanc
nightmare when I need to deploy new versions of the application.
If I put the exe on a file server I have to deal with code access security
What would be the best way to do it with the least headache

Can some help? Thanks ahead

Hi - that is very useful - but it assumes you have access to execute
programs on the web server, which if it is a host (eg 1&1) you don't
have this access.

I know you put the bin info in your bin folder in the root of the web
site - but what about if you have multiple sites on your web space (eg.
a reseller) - where would you put the respective files then? In the
root of the web server still, or in the root of the directory you set up
for the new project? And I presume when you come to do this, it would
just be a matter of copying the files, and FTPing them onto the web
server (ie. no installer programs to be run) - is this correct?

Thank you,

Hi Mark,

This is not something I real can answer, however one of the benefits of the
next version of .Net is one touch deployment.

When it is a benefit from the next version, what do you think that is the
status now?
