Are these components in a COM+ package? If so, you can install the COM+ package (of the server) as a remote package of the client.
It's another option that I find preferable to CREATEOBJECT("whatever", "Servername") because it allows management of the target servers via the COM+ console rather than hard-coding. (Of course, there are also ways to get away with not hard-coding the names, but still...)
>Yes it does need to register the dll in the client, that's why I started this thread, but I think that must be some way to make it easy.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts. - Bertrand Russell
