Is it possible to create a .NET global assembly cache that spans across a
group of servers & clients?

I do not believe so

I think you could simulate something like it though...

- Create a network share.
- Have each user map a drive to it
- Set that drive letter up in you path
- Setup CAS (Code Access Security) so the share is fully trusted
- Place common libraries there

Might get you close enough.

Brandon,

Is it possible to create a .NET global assembly cache that spans across a
group of servers & clients?

not directly, but you can use SMS to install common components on a range of
computers, including clients, to make installation easier.
