I have a .NET application installed on a server. It runs fine when I run an
instance on my PC. My question is, is it possible to run a .NET app hosted
on a server without having the framework installed on the client PC?

No - the framework has to be present on the computing *executing* the
code, not just the one which hosts the files.

Only in the case of web applications. If you want to run a desktop
application, you will have to have .NET installed.
There is one exception. There are tools out there that compile .NET to
native equivalents, which makes them a windows executable, not .NET. In
general, they are expensive. Other than that, web apps are the only
exception to the rule, as the browser just gets HTML and JavaScript.

Ok. I know that an exception message shows up on the client PC. Is there
some way to build a stub that would check the client PC for the framework
and give a more user friendly message if it's not installed?

Not with an installed program, but you can bootstrap the .NET Framework to
an installer. This includes both the exe/msi type of installer and the
ClickOnce deployment model.

Hi,
Apologies if this isn't the correct forum. I am writing a communication
solution (actually on the Compact Framework) based on HttpWebRequests
hooking up with custom handlers on the server side. My dumb question is
this: how reliable is http? For example if I use PUT and call GetResponse on
my request object with no problem, can I guarantee that every byte of my
file will always arrive at the web server?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
