Hi !

I'm trying to access a registry key on a remote computer.

Here is my code :

[RegistryPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.RequestMinimum, Read =
@"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MyKey")]
public static string ReadRegistryKey(string PsMachineName)
{
    try
    {
        RegistryKey LoKey =
RegistryKey.OpenRemoteBaseKey(RegistryHive.LocalMachine, PsMachineName);
        RegistryKey LoSubKey = LoKey.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\MyKey");
        string LsValue = LoSubKey.GetValue("InstallFolder").ToString();

        return LsValue;
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
        return e.Message;
    }
}

This code does not compile !!!

Error : Error emitting
'System.Security.Permissions.RegistryPermissionAttribute' attribute --
'Common Language Runtime Internal error: 0x8013143e'

Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or how I can fix this !? Thanks a
lot.

Marc
