I am having to setup a user with a new PC which came with Version 2 of the
framework preinstalled. The problem is the Configuration Utility to Adjust
Zone Security does not show itself in Control Panel.

Where do I look or what other options are available?

Hello Darrell,

check that the file exists there %Systemroot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\versionNumber\Mscorcfg.msc

More info about this is there http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2bc0cxhc.aspx

From all indications the Mscorcfg.msc is not installed on the machine.

The link you provided states to open the SDK command promt but the SDK was
not installed on the machine only the redistributable components.

The configuration applet in Control Panel only available to .NET1.1 Redist,
not 2.0 Redist. It is just GUI tool of using the command line tool
CASPOL.exe. For .NET 2.0, you need to learn to use command line CASPOL.exe,
which MS thinks is "easier" to use than GUI tool. The GUI tool is only
available for .NET 2.0 SDK, which is for developer, who MS thinks is not
good at using command line tools.

OK

So what is the proper command to set the Zone Intranet so that it has
FullTrust?

CASPOL.EXE takes a huge list of different arguments. I cannot remember. Each
time when I have to use it, I need to go to MSDN help page. Google
"CASPOL.exe" for the link (First link on google's search result).

One other way to make the task "simple" is to do it on a computer where GUI
configuration applet is available (i.e. .NET 2.0 SDK installed):

1. create a code group in GUI way
2. Also use the GUI tool to create deployment MSI (for deploying the CAS
policy)
3. On a domain network, use group policy to deploy the MSI to all computers
in the domain automatically.
