If you write a program in C++, make sure that the Merlin Host
Controller is registered on both the client and server machine.
A.4 DCOM Configuration for Merlin Host Controller
To configure DCOM on the Merlin Host Controller, you will run a DCOM
configuration utility called dcomcnfg. On Windows 2000 and Windows NT
4.0, DCOM and the dcomcnfg are bundled into the operating sytems. On
Windows 98, DCOM is not bundled into the operating system. You will
need to first install DCOM before you can use dcomcnfg to configure
Merlin for remote use.
When dcomcnfg is run, it will present a list of installed applications that
support DCOM. To configure an application for DCOM, select an
application from the list, then apply security and launch settings.
This appendix describes the process for configuring security and launch
settings to Merlin for Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0 systems. If you
are using Windows 98, you will need to first install DCOM before you can
use dcomcnfg. The screens for Windows 98 will be a little different from
what you see in this appendix.
