DCOM security problem with client control running in IE.
Hi everybody!
I have an ActiveX control that runs inside IE.
This control uses DCOM to transfer files from the client computer to the
server.
Before the user is allowed to access the ASP script that contains this
OBJECT tag, the user is prompted for the valid User Name / Password for the
server NT domain.
The problem is that the ActiveX control does not access the DCOM server with
the browser identity. Instead, it attempts to connect with the identity of
the user who is currently logged onto the client computer. Of course, DCOM
rejects this connection because this user is unknown to the server NT
domain.
What can I do?
No playing around around with Impersonation or Authentication levels in
DCOMCNFG help.
Thanks in advance,
Oleg.
