I have an html application that uses an embeded .Net user control - and has
specified the startup attribute for supportedRuntime for 1.1.4322 - inside
of a XML configuration file.

When I run this application it ignores the runtime directive and loads up
the 2.0 runtime - I have verified this with the Fusion Logger.

Here is the Log Entry:

*** Assembly Binder Log Entry  (5/1/2006 @ 3:40:58 PM) ***

Here is the AppConfig value that I have entered - it is getting streamed to
the client - I have verified with the Fusion Logger.

- <startup>
 <supportedRuntime version="v1.1.4322" />
 </startup>

Here is something of interest I get in an attached debbuger:

Is there something else that I am missing?

The most intresting part is - if I run the app from a local web server -
instead of a remote web server - even though it loads up 2.0 - it doesn't
fail - but on the remote server it fails...
