Okay, I was able to get our ASP page to call our COM+ components while
running in IIS6 isolation mode, but I had to change the Identity of the
application pool to run as a Local System account instead of the Network
Service account. I think this pretty much narrows the problem down to
permissions. I'm at a loss as to what permissions I need to set.

In component services under COM+ Applications I found my component's
application ID. Then I went down to DCOM Config and found that application
id and I granted the Network Service launch permissions for that component,
but it still isn't working. What tools can I use to determine what's trying
to be accessed when our ASP page tries to create that object? I'd imagine
that if I could at least find that info I could grant the appropriate
permissions on all the objects.

Thank you,

Denny
