I am working on a DCOM application with a server and a client on two machines, both of which run WinXP with Service Pack 2. On both machines I registered with the same username and password.
When a client on one machine calls CoCreateInstanceEx, asking another machine to start the server application, it returns E_ACCESSDENIED.
I tried to enter the properties of the server application component in dcomcnfg and give full permission to everyone for everything, but this did not help.
What do I need to do to make this call a success?
Update: When the server application is running in a Windows 2000 window, I do not get this error; CoCreateInstanceEx returns S_OK.
