CASPOL is pretty much set and forget. The setting is saved on the local
machine. Of course, you don't really want to forget about it because you'll
have the same problem another day if you move to a different server.
The -ag 1.2 argument is used to create a new group policy as a child of the
Intranet code group (1.2). A child code group extends and overrides the
policy to apply for a narrower set of the assemblies governed by its parent.
In essence, the command is instructing the system to create an exemption for
the normal policy of group 1.2 such that the Gallio assemblies will receive
full trust.
You can see the existing groups by running caspol -lg.
Here's what I see on my machine:
1. All code: Nothing
1.1. Zone - MyComputer: FullTrust
1.1.1. StrongName -
00240000048000009400000006020000002400005253413100040
0000100010007D1FA57C4AED9F0A32E84AA0FAEFD0DE9E8FD6AEC8F87FB03766C834C99921EB

61C8
A12436518206DC093344D5AD293: FullTrust
1.1.2. StrongName - 00000000000000000400000000000000: FullTrust
1.2. Zone - Intranet: LocalIntranet
1.2.1. All code: Same site Web
1.2.2. All code: Same directory FileIO - 'Read, PathDiscovery'
1.3. Zone - Internet: Internet
1.3.1. All code: Same site Web
1.4. Zone - Untrusted: Nothing
1.5. Zone - Trusted: Internet
1.5.1. All code: Same site Web
When you are done modifying the policy, you should see a new group 1.2.3
created to exempt Gallio from the ordinary caspol rules for assemblies in
the Intranet zone.
Jeff.

Thank you both for your comments.
I have tried mapped drives and as Rob suggested it does not work :-(
I have also had a play with CASPOL and am trying to get this to work, I have
2 questions around this.
1. Do I need to set this up every time I run my tests or is it a one shot
deal on the server ie it permanently defines the permission on the server in
similar way to setting other security settings.
2. What is the -ag 1.2 I'm not sure I understand why 1.2 is used?
Another alternative I may try if I can't get this working is to make my post
compile script copy the assemblies to the local server. But I would rather
crack the challenge of remote assemblies if possible :-)
Thanks for your comments so far
Rob
