Summary of DCOM Client Configuration Steps
DCOM client configuration for the remote (DCOM client) computer
involves the following procedures:
• Set authentication to occur upon connection with the host computer.
• Set the Host name or IP address of the server that the client will be
connecting to.
• Set default properties to enable DCOM on the remote computer.
• Set the network protocol over which DCOM will run.
Set Authentication Level
You specify when and how the client should be authenticated by performing
the following steps:
Step 1
Open the Distributed COM Configuration Properties utility.
See “Open the DCOM Configuration Properties Utility” on page 74
to find out how.
Step 2
On the Applications tab of the Distributed COM Configuration
Properties utility, scroll down the list of applications and select
FwAnalyzer.
Step 3 Click the Properties button.
The FwAnalyzer Properties dialog opens. The General tab is
displayed by default.
