Hi All.
I've got two PCs ( Win98 + WinXP) connected thourgh Workgroup, WinXP machines has installed the Application server and
Win98 (that has installed Cilent Application ) using DCOM architecture.
First Server (WinXP) setting:
Dcomcnfg Settings
- Default Authentication : None
- Default Impersonation : Impersonate
For default COM security, i've include "Everyone" and "System" acccounts for user rights for COM COmponent.
Secondly Client (Win98) machine settings :
- Default Authentication : None
- Default Impersonation : Impersonate
Now whenever client makes a call to server (WinXp) machine, the ActiveX EXE component invoke onto Server machine, i can
find ActiveX EXe component running through "TASK MANAGER". It means that ActiveX Component successfully launched but client
application hangs and doesn't show any result.
Now after all doing this above procedure, then include one more PC that has installed Windows 2000 Professional with
exactly same configuration that i've configured on WinXp machine. This Windows 2000 machine is now acting as a Appication
Server and client has assigned towards this new server. You can't imagine, its working fine without any problem.
I really wonder that why it doesn't work in case of Window XP with Win98 client and works fine with Windows 2000
Professional.
Could you please tell me whats going wrong with configuration.
Your suggestions will be highly appreciatable.
Cheers
