I'm just a novice so go easy.  I'm trying to figure out how to deploy a simple "HelloCruelWorld" test app and my first choice was ClickOnce since there will be many updates as we progress on a new application.  However my first remote intall get the following error:
 
System Update Required

 

Unable to install or run the application. The application

requires that assembly  IdeaBlade.EntityModel  Version 5.2.4.2

be installed in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) first.

 

Please contact your system administrator.

What is the prefered method of supporting remote users for installs and upadates?

When deploying an application, you will typically need to install libraries and DLLs from your development machine to your deployment machine.  You typically don't need to install them into the GAC.  You typically would install them into a single installation directory (where your installed application resides).  In your case, you would copy IdeaBlade.EntityModel.dll into this installation directory.
