Hi, I work for a software development company as a quality analyst. We have a product who's client software uses DCOM to communicate with its server services either locally or across the network.
This all works fine on Win 95, 98, ME, NT, 2K, XP on the english versions. However if you try and install the software on a French version of Win2k Pro, Service pack 3, not logging onto a domain, logged on as the local administrator account.
During the installation one of the things setup does is alter the DCOM permissions for the server services it has installed, when it tries to do this on french win2k it fails saying it does not have permission to do so. The exact same process works on the english version.
After the installation has completed I then ran DCOMCNFG manually and went to the service in question and in its propperties added and removed users/groups rights to access that service.
I am really stuck, I dont know where to start, I've been looking on the MSDN but havent found anything useful. I dont know why this would be different just because of the language of the OS.
Can anyone help, please?
Thanks in advance.
Martin.
