Prerequisites at ASP.NET Hoster for Atlas

My sites are hosted by a normal ASP.NET (2.0) hoster. Do I need any prerequisites on the hosted machine to enable Atlas on my website?

Thanks

As of the March release Atlas should work fine as a medium trust application. Therefore you should be able to simply xcopy your Atlas app to the server.

One problem you may face however is that your host does not map the new ".asbx" extension (which is used for webservice bridge files). This means you can probably not use this feature until your host would add this mapping.

Here is additional material on .asbx files and how to route bridge calls through an .axd extension without having to register the .asbx extension with IIS, great for a hosted account.
