RE: [DUG]: DCOM and NT
>From a delphi app you can call CoObjectCreateRemote and specify the workstation name so we don't need DCOMCnfg. If you are not using Delphi to call the server then you can dig into the registry and change things but if you are using 'Run As' for the activation then you won't be able to encrypt the password in the registry. Checkout Dan Misers web site - he has a page there with all the steps to follow. http://www/execpc.com/~dmiser. All our server objects will run using DCom or Midas sockets. We use a single registry entry on the client to specifiy the connection method (Socket or Com) and the remote server name. We don't use DCom cause I had a heck of a job getting it to run at all (NT Security) and sockets was a snap, so we chose sockets. >From: "Jeremy Coulter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: Multiple recipients of list delphi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: [DUG]: DCOM and NT >Date: Fri, 6 Aug 1999 09:11:07 +1200 > >Ok, yeah I have got that far sofar... >Another question have is, can you setup or alter a setting in DCOMCNFG.EXE >from code ?? >I.e. at the moment, on the remote machine I have an IP address hard coded >into it where the DCOM server is, (the machine where it is). >Now, if thatIP addres changes, can I progmatically change thatIP address ? > >Cheers, Jeremy Coulter > > > -Original Message- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On > > Behalf Of Peter G Jones > > Sent: Friday, August 06, 1999 20:10 > > To: Multiple recipients of list delphi > > Subject: Re: [DUG]: DCOM and NT > > > > > > You can only run out-of-process servers remotely, ie: exe's - unless you > > provide a proxy, in which case you may as well just right an exe. > > Of course > > if your Web server is IIS then you will be using MTS so you can > > then use a > > Com DLL - forget OCX's they are crap - but you are still using an > > EXE cause > > that's all MTS is . > > > > Get it? > > > > > > >From: "Jeremy Coulter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > >To: Multiple recipients of list delphi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > >Subject: [DUG]: DCOM and NT > > >Date: Thu, 5 Aug 1999 11:06:13 +1200 > > > > > >HI all. > > > > > >I might be going up the wrong path here, BUT, in windows 95 when you >goto > > >the DCOM config tool I think it is from memory, you can go into > > it and tell > > >it to run an OCX on another machine/server (as long as its an NT or >95/98 > > >box) > > >Now my understanding of this, that the OCX does in dead RUN on the > > >nominated > > >machine...which iswhere I might be going wrong. > > > > > >Anyway, assuming I ma right-ish, where do I do this under NT ?? > > > > > >Thanks, Jeremy Coulter > > ><< winmail.dat >> > > > > > > __ > > Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com > > -- > > - > > New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz > > > > >--- > New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com --- New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz

Re: [DUG]: DCOM and NT
You can only run out-of-process servers remotely, ie: exe's - unless you provide a proxy, in which case you may as well just right an exe. Of course if your Web server is IIS then you will be using MTS so you can then use a Com DLL - forget OCX's they are crap - but you are still using an EXE cause that's all MTS is .
