hello,

I'm currently on the task to deploy a strong named assembly. I want to
deploy the security policy either via group policies or by using an MSI
installation package. The strong named assembly is added as an own code
group under the Machine->All Code Node in the .net configuration. When I
right click on Runtime Security Policy and click "Create deployment
package", I only have the option to select complete groups (Enterprise,
Machine or User). What happens when I select Machine in that case, and run
the installer on another system, where settings of existing code groups have
been changed or deleted? Will the settings be overwritten? Added again? Will
existing code groups which are not in the msi package be deleted?

If you know any tools, that let me extract single code groups from the
configuration for deployment, please let me know.

thank you,

Michael Pucher
