There are two answers: 1. The .NET equivalent to Security Manager is Code Access Security (CAS). Google should provide a plethora of material about it. 2. Last I heard, Mono's CAS support was fairly limited (lack of resources, requires a class library code review, etc.), so I don't know if Mono is mature enough for your purposes. However... 3. Silverlight introduces a New, Simpler security model than CAS, and Mono will need to implement this model for Silverlight 2.0 support. I don't know when this will be complete either, but I imagine it will be available before CAS will be complete. You might look into this as well. - Jon _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
