    DCOM Permission Denied: CreateObject

    I've seen the answer posted here somewhere, but I'm having trouble tracking it down...

    I finally rewrote my Audrey MP3 application for IIS today, & I have only one remaining problem: when trying to set up the WinampCOM object I'm getting the dreaded "permission denied" error on the following statement:

    set WinAMP = CreateObject("WinampCOM.Application")

    If I log into the iisadmin web pages & authenticate, then try my MP3 pages again, all is well.

    The WinampCOM plug-in, gen_com.dll, is in the WinAmp plugins folder - I've added IUSR access both to the gen_com.dll & to the winamp.exe (and to their respective folders). I've tried various changes to the WinampCOM application using dcomcnfg, but I don't understand enough about what I'm doing to make a dent - I'm not sure what I have to stop/restart to pick up my changes.

    Can somebody point me in the right direction??

    I found it in MS article Q267836: I had to add "Everyone" & "System" to the default access & launch permissions in dcomcnfg - but I still left the Identity set to the interactive user - works like a charm!!
