reading app.config file from server location

Hi all

I have developed desktop application in c#.net. I have installed it on
15 to 20 computers which all are in network. Application having some
setting in app.config file.

My problem it that if I am changing any settings of application then I
have to change all 15 to 20 pc's app.config files. Now I am thinking
to place app.config file in server and all pc's will get the all
application setting information from that server configuration file.
But I am not having the idea how do I read app.config file fom server
location.

I don't want to place all application information in database.

You can use a web service to distribute the config settings.

Or why not deploy the application on a network share drive?
