>Thanks for the answer. Will the DCOMCNFG utility run against mtdll or is it only for EXE com objects?

DCOMCNFG is only for EXE servers. COM+/MTS applications have a similar security configuration, but that's configured as part of the component configuration. It's on the Impersonation tab I believe...

>>The problem is related to security. An anonymous user accessing a Web site on IIS comes in as IUSR_(machine name) which by default has very limited rights on the local machine. In order to run at all and access data you usually have to give IUSR_ rights to even access local data. But IUSR_ is a local account and it doesn't have network access by default.

>>>I have developed a ASP and VFP MTDLL web site. When using VFP scripting I have no problems accessing data that is located on the computer hosting the web site. However, I am having trouble accessing data that is located on another computer on the network. The sql code runs fine in the IDE, or an EXE, but when running it in a vfp mtdll I cannot access the data.
