W2K8 & Win7 - Setting system-wide Trusted file locations not working

RE: Setting system-wide trusted file locations

I have an application using Flash stored on a network location that accesses other files in the same location.  This causes the security warning "The following local application... is trying to communicate with this internet-enabled..."  I can add the location to the trusted sites in the Setting Manager and the warning goes away.  It is not practical however to do this on every machine on the network.  I have tried the FlashPlayerTrust directory and mms.cfg file and neither of these seem to work.  Is there a trick to getting the FlashPlayerTrust directory to work properly.  If I could get this working, I could create a script that copies this file to all machines on the network. 

Any help you be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Todd,

    Can you please provide just a little more detail?

    * When you say "accessess", what API is being used?  Are the paths to the other files relative, file: URI http: URI, other?

    * In the FlashPlayerTrust directory, are you using the same path notation as appears in the Settings Manager?  What's a sample {filename}.{ext} being used?

    Thanks!

    -Erica

    I was able to resolve this issue.  I was placing the FlashPlayerTrust folder in the wrong location.  Once I moved it into the proper place it works as intended. 

    Thanks.
