Hi all, We have this DCOM error : "Access Denied Error 0x80070005". Our configuration : Client Machine : 2003 SP1 "dcomcnfg\Component Services\COM Security tab\Edit Limits\Access Permissions" : Grant ANONYMOUS LOGON to "Allow the remote access and local access permissions" Grant EVERYONE to "Allow the remote access and local access permissions" Grant "Distributed COM users" to "Allow the remote access and local access permissions" Server Machine : 2003 SP1 (Service is running as "Domain\Admin") dcomcnfg\Component Services\COM Security tab\Edit Limits\ Launch and Activation Permissions : Grant Administrators to "Allow the remote activation and local activation permissions and allow the remote launch and local launch permissions" Grant EVERYONE to "Allow the remote activation and local activation permissions and allow the remote launch and local launch permissions" Grant "Distributed COM users" to "Allow the remote activation and local activation permissions and allow the remote launch and local launch permissions" Both of them are domain controllers on the same domain. About authorizations : on the new domain group "Distributed COM users" : Members Administrators + everyone Can you explain this problem, any ideas to troubleshoot this problem ? T.I.A
