Windows Small Business Server 2011 : Customizing a SharePoint Site - Customizing Companyweb (part 4) - Adding RemoteApps Links - Register the Web Part as Safe

23.2.2.3. Register the Web Part as Safe

Next you need to register the Web Part you’re going to use as a safe control. This allows it to run without needing an elevated prompt. To register the Web Part, follow these steps:

1. Open an elevated Cmd or PowerShell command prompt using Run As Administrator.

2. Change to the directory where the configuration file for Companyweb is, and open web.config in Notepad or your favorite plain-text editor as shown in Figure 19 by entering the following commands:

   cd "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\Companyweb80"
   
   notepad web.config

3. In the web.config file, locate the <SafeControls> section of the file. At the end of the section of SafeControl Assembly entries, add the following line:

   <SafeControl Assembly="TSPortalWebPart, Version=6.1.0.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKe
   yToken=31bf3856ad364e35" Namespace="Microsoft.TerminalServices.Publishing.Portal"
   TypeName="*" Safe="True" AllowRemoteDesigner="True" />
   
   					  

   
   

   ---

   Note:

   Add this as a single line, with no line breaks.

   ---

4. Save the change and exit Notepad. Keep the elevated command prompt open. You’ll need it in the next section.

Warning:

IMPORTANT Always make a copy of important files before editing them—just in case.

2.4. Create a Folder to Store the Web Part

Next you need to create a folder to hold the Web Part and its images, and to give the Network Services account full control on the folder. Use the following steps:

1. In the elevated command prompt from the previous section, type the following commands:

   mkdir "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\
   wpresources\TSPortalWebPart\6.1.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\images"
   
   mkdir "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\
   wpresources\TSPortalWebPart\6.1.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\rdp"
   
   					  

   
   

   ---

   Note:

   Notice the two underscores after 6.1.0.0 in the preceding command lines.

   ---

2. Change the directory to the parent folder of the two folders you just created:

   cd "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\
   wpresources\TSPortalWebPart\6.1.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35"

   
   

3. Give the Network Service account and the spwebapp account full control over the two folders you created in step 1:

   cmd /c icacls images /grant NetworkService:F
   
   cmd /c icacls images /grant spwebapp:F
   
   cmd /c icacls rdp /grant NetworkService:F
   
   cmd /c icacls rdp /grant spwebapp:F

   
   

4. Close the Command Prompt window if you see a success message.
