I'm not sure how the sharepoint process and security model is looking
like. But what you've described shows as if the dependent unmanaged
dll-s (eg. mapscript.dll) couldn't be accessed at run-time. You can
use the dependency walker to inspect how the dll-s are linked to each
other and use SysInternals filemon to see which dll cannot be accessed
at run-time. You should find out the name of the host process running
your application (eg. aspnet_wp.exe or w3wp.exe) and set up a filter
to it in filemon. You might anyway have to try copying all of the
dependent dll-s into the same directory where the host process is
running.
As far as I remember as of the 5-0 version the mapscript_csharp.dll is
'strong-named' by default.
