Question on DCOM-accessing OPC Servers from clients

Using W2000 on both server and client comptuers. I can access my OPC server from my OPC client only if I 1)Have a Administrator account on the Server computer 2)Do not Log into my Network (just local computer).

I believe I have set up DCOM correctly. According to the following website:


You shouldn't need to be administrator on either computer, you just need proper access rights in the DCOM configuration window.

However, it seems like it is getting a different authentication when I access the server from a client where I have logged on as a restricted user on the LOCAL computer's domain which works. However, the authentication from the Network domain seems to be different even I have set up the most minimal access rights in DCOM. My IT guys say they don't have any additional restrictions and it should work.

Any HELP would be nice! Thanks
