Category: COM

Have created a simple COM Server and Client App. (Both are EXEs).
The Client can communicate with the server, when both are running on the same computer (A).
The Server is local.

When attempting to configure a remote server, I configure using dcomcnfg.exe ...
- uncheck the Option "Run app on this computer"
and
- check the Option "Run app on the following computer" , choose the Computer A.

Now the client (also running on A) does not create. Specifically the method CreateInstance (of my Interface Object) fails. The error is "Class not registered".

What or where should I look for...

The same setup works on another computer.
I am using WIN NT v 4.0, SP5.
