WSH - New ActiveXObject & Persmission denied

A couple of things to do what you want.

On the remote host the component should have been added to Component Services (win2000 / xp) or MTS (win NT). After that you should also set permission for this object for who may access them and under which user it should be ran. (easily accomplished, check the properties of the component within MTS or Component Services).

Then the next (easy) step is to export the component. This will eventually give you an application which you will need to send to your clients. Run the program from there and the component should be created with the above code (note: only if that user has permission to).

You may need to create a new package (within MTS or Component Services) which suits your needs though...

sorry but i think i havent made myself clear.

ive already got the COM Service installed on several machines. and ive also installed the object on the clients. there is no problem running vbs or .wsf files as long as im running them locally ie.:

  Var myobject = New ActiveXObject([Object])

but for some reason the call:

  Var myobject = New ActiveXObject([Object], [Remote Host])

gives a "persmission denied" alert! ive discovered that this alert does not show if the client station is a windows 2000 server, only when im using windows 2000 pro.

also the remote server is NOT on the same domain as the client. when the server is on the same domain as the client theres no problem.

ive tried to change the "Default Authentication Level" in dcomcnfg aswell as added the users in "Default Access Permission" and "Default Launch Permissions". to no avail.

im at loss here...

Have you tried giving Everyone (or at least the IUSR_MACHINENAME and IWAP_MACHINENAME users) launch and access permissions within component services (on the remote host)?

CJ

yes i have. both on the remote host and on the local one.

Should only be done on the server.

Anyway, another thoguht. You say that when it is within the same domain then everything works correctly. This remoten server is not on the same domain. So, are you accessing it using the http port (80)?

If so you might want to give RDS a try

var mobj = New ActiveXObject("RDS.DataSpace")
var myobject = mobj.CreateObject("[Object]", "[remotehost]")
