Com DCOM on Win 2003
-
hi everyone, I have an old application VB6 and ASP. the asp pages are on the webserver, the dll is registered on the webserver (win 2000), the dll is in the com+ also of the application server (win 2000). everything is working correctly. When we change the webserver to a win 2003 server, I should register the com object on this new server, I made export from the application server, and I register this com on the new web server (win 2003). I had this error: server.createobject failed. it is like asp can't create any object. what is the problem? security or configuration?

Can you specify the exact error which you are getting. This most probably seems to be a security issue. There is a group called "Distributed COM Users" in the Groups. To use a COM Component from another machine through DCOM, user should be in this group. This group was not present with the original version of Windows 2003. It came only with SP1 of Win2k3. Anyway, look at the exact error. It might be something else.
