I have a two computer setup. This machine is my regular (surf the net, play games) machine and it has Visual Studio .NET installed on it.

The other machine is my server. It has IIS and SQL Server 2000 on it. For the last few years I have done my ASP development on it.

I am very new to Visual Studio, in the past using Ultraedit for all my coding needs, so forgive me if this is a real 'newbie' question... How do I create a project on the server?

When I run Visual Studio (remember, it's on my machine) and I try to create project on the server, i cant.

I want Visual Studio to allow me to create projects on the server AND I want the projects to run on that server when ever I run the application.

There must be settings for this, but I can't find them.

Any ideas?

Hi Brad,

I try to simulate your setup and found some interesting details.

If you need to create web application on a remote server, you first need to create a virtual directory on remote server and mapped it to a physical directory so it should look like http://remoteservername/dirname

In next step while creating the web application project , studio will ask you for the server path name. Provide http://remoteservername/dirname there and it should work then.

Hope this will work for you.
