Datasnap / DCOM / Windows 2003 / MTS

Hello all:
Does anybody has any successfull experience implementing a n-tier app using
Datasnap / DCOM / Windows 2003 / MTS?
Everything goes fine locally, but when i try to run the client from another
PC , the application simply don't go. I used the export option and generated
a msi package to install in the client and intalled it.
When I run the client, the OS just shows the Microsoft dialog telling the
application generated a error.
Does anybody has any guidelines on how to configure such enviroment?
Regards and thanks.

Re:Datasnap / DCOM / Windows 2003 / MTS

Hi
We have several big deployments with exactly that combination, so you should
feel safe on that.
The only differences are on the COM+ in the component services, you may need
to make them work as services (properties) and if you are using SP1/SP2 on
Windows 2003, you will need to enable MSDTC and some other properties of the
component services.
Also you may need to open ports if Windows firewall is activated. For an
example of other possible hints that may lead you to have your application
working check this link:

Good luck with that
