I have not done this for a while. But you may have to set the end point of
the DCOM from the client to invoke the com remotely. Seems like you are even
getting there.

No Luck!

It is still the same issue. It is not able to call the method. My
first line of debussing message is not getting logged.

I doubt it is something to do with security settings inside server.
Any ideas?

Thanks for replies so far.

Hi Phil, thanks for your reply. I did not understand your point right.
Could you please explain what I have to try in step-by-step approach?
Thanks

Like I said, it's been a while.
IIRC, you have to install the DCOM on your client using some DCOM utility.
That utility let you specify where the server(endpoint) is. Select the rest
of the choice to default.

I think you mean DCOMcnfg, but I think that the client can specify which
server to use in the second parameter of CreateObject().

It has been a while for me too.

The following link might help you troubleshoot the issue. Make sure that you didn't break binary
