I'm just starting to embark into the world of dcom and vfp and have some basic questions.

I downloaded the dfox example from an article I saw mentioned here on UT and on VFUG. I've tried to register and run it on 2 different computers, one win98, and one NT workstation. Both have dcom installed. I've verified on both computers that they enabledcom and enableremoteconnect keys are set to "y" in the registry. If I search for the class code from the dfox.vbr file in the registry on either computer, I can find it there.

If I try to execute the server on the win98 machine from the NT workstation, I get the following error:

OLE error code 0x80080005: Server execution failed.

If I try to execute the server on the NT workstation from the win98 box I get this error:

OLE error code 0x80070005: Access is denied.

The first error I don't understand, the second, I can see where it would be a permissions issue. I would reset the security context for the server, but it doesn't show up in dcomcnfg. Should any server you register this way show up in dcomcnfg, or is there some other magic I'm missing here.



any help would be greatly appreciated.

regards,

Jim Erwin
