RSS News Feeds And XML-XSL Dotnetnuke Module

<trust level="Full" originUrl=""/>I faced error while setting up the RSS feed in the Dotnetnuke's News Feeds RSS Module. It display following error: Could Not Connect To [[URL]]. You Should Verify The Source Address Is Valid And That Your Hosting Provider Has Configured Their Proxy Server Settings Correctly. After researching in various forum, I figured that News Feeds RSS Module requires trust level either HIGH or FULL. It does not works well with medium trust level. So it requires a change in the web.config file as bellow. <trust level=" Medium " originUrl=".*" /> TO <trust level=" High " originUrl=""/> OR <trust level=" Full " originUrl=""/> I decided not to change this setting and use another module that comes with Dotnetnuke. I used the XML/XSL module to resolve this issue. It gives the same result. Yes I had to copy the XSL file from the News Feeds RSS mod

This was surprising but Microsoft hired many Linux developer in past so it make sense. – Thanks John M for sharing this info. As Microsoft extended the support for Windows XP, looks like they are trying to release Windows 7 before Windows XP support expires.
