After following the instructions, configure DCOM on the computer that has FlexPro installed on it.

1.Click on Start.

2.In the text box Start Search enter dcomcnfg and press ENTER to start DCOM configuration.

3.In the User Account Control dialog box that appears, click on Continue.

4.Open the Component Services node and then Computers.

5.Right-click with your mouse on My Computer and then select Properties from the context menu.

6.Switch to the Default Properties tab and make sure that Enable Distributed COM on this computer is selected.

7.Click on OK, to close the dialog box.

8.Open the My Computer node and then DCOM Configuration.

9.Choose the FlexPro Project Database entry and then display its properties.

10.Switch to the General tab and choose the entry None as the Authentication Level.

11.Switch to the Security tab and make sure that the user who needs access to FlexPro from a remote system has the appropriate permissions to do so. To do this, for the launch and access permissions, select the Customize option, click on Edit and add a suitable user group.

12.Switch to the Identity tab. Select either interactive user or a specific user whose user account is to be used for running the application. If you select a specific user, you must specify this user's password.

13.Note: To test the configuration, it makes sense to set the identity to the interactive user first, since you will not be able to access the running FlexPro program otherwise.

14.Click on OK, and then on the File menu, click on Exit to exit the configuration.
