I am working with .NET re-writing a FoxPro client-server app in windows
forms.  The apps have to run in parallel until the .net version is comple=
ted.
 Therefore, I have to register my .net assemblies as COM Objects.

I do this by giving the assembly a strong name and key pair and then addi=
ng
it to the GAC.  The .net sdk includes a utility called regasm that regist=
ers
the COM Object in the registry.

All of this works great and I can reference the COM Obect locally.  I nee=
d
to access it remotely though.  When I run DCOMCNFG on the machine, the CO=
M
Object does not show up in the applications tab.  I can see it in HKCR in=

the registry.

How do I make a COM Object DCOM accessible?
