 DCOM: Cannot cannot connect multiple users to a DCOM server

I am{*filter*} at the end of my rope.

I have a DCOM server written in VB6SP4 and wish to connect a number of
clients.
The server will only connect client programs with same user account that
started the
server. In other words, if I logon to a computer with a different
account, I cannot
connect to the DCOM server. Instead I get a run time error -
"429 ActiveX component can't create object".

I even tried accounts with administator rights, but still no luck.

The dcomcnfg settings are pretty much all default on the server and
client machines.

Here is the summary of the settings in dcomcnfg.

 Default Authentication Level: None
 Default Impesonation Level: Anonymous
 Default Security: the world has full control over everything.
 Default Protocol: All the usual protocols

 Identity: The Launching user
 Location: Run application on this computer

When I connect to the DCOM serve, I use the CreateObject to specify the
host name.

This has become most anoying because I am not in the least bit
interested in the
security aspects of DCOM and it is getting in the way of me trying to
implement
a simple client/server system.

Is there a solution to this.

Any comments would much be appreciated.

Assign Identity with an specified user account (choose this user option and
browse )
