[thelist] DCOM / WinNT4/Win2K help please

[Jay Turley]

I have developed a DLL that runs on a file server running Win2K. After 
registering it as a component with the component manager, I can export it 
as a proxy application and then double-click the resulting .msi file to 
install it on any of our Win2K web servers. However, I cannot get any of 
our Win NT4SP5 web servers to import the component. I even tried 
registering the DLL locally on the NT machines and then using dcomcnfg to 
set it up to execute on the remote files server - with no luck. Can anyone 
help me out with this problem? Going the other way - from WinNT to Win2K 
was a cake walk, but this?? Ay-yi-yiii!

Thanks a ton!

When you are developing a solution for a client, make SURE that you get 
correct information from them regarding the environment that the solution 
will be deployed in. Don't trust just anyone's word about what will be 
there, make sure to talk to the right person, otherwise you may be in for a 
nasty surprise when it is ready to be rolled out.

See above problem for reason for tip ;-)
