.Net wodsftp.dll security (wodSFTP / wodSFTP.NET / wodSFTPdll)

I have written a .Net app, deploying it with ClickOnce. wodsftp.dll seems to require full trust, otherwise it will not deploy. The problem is that to deploy it the app requires elevation, so standard users cannot install or update it themselves.

In fact, unless it is installed by an admin user, it does not appear in the start menu, in the add/remove app list, or in the program files folder. If it is elevated under a standard user, the app does not appear anywhere!

Is this a Vista issue, a wodSFT issue, or a combination?

Hi,

I'm not really familiar with ClickOnce. However, when you are distributing wodSFTP component, you need to distribute wodSFTP.dll and register is on the distribution machine. It's not enough to simply copy application to destination machine.

Usually that's what you're setup utility does, but in case it doesn't, can you try doing it manually? Does that help?
