Automation error The Authentication service unknown

[trungluu]

Hi,

I built a client/server application that have a server component (authorization.dll). When I deloyed the server component on COM+ on windows 2000 server OS and client on windows 2000 (on the same domain). It worked well.

But when I deloy server component on windows 2000 server and client on windows 98 (I log in domain with administrator right). I get the following error message:

-2147023149- Automation error
The authentication service unknown

Could you please tell me how to resolve this problem?

=====================================
These are codes on my server compenent:

=====================================
These are codes on my login form:
=====================================

Option Explicit

Public LoginSucceeded As Boolean

Private Sub cmdCancel_Click()
'set the global var to false
'to denote a failed login
LoginSucceeded = False
'Me.Hide
Unload Me
End Sub

Private Sub cmdOK_Click()
Dim objAutho As Authorization.UserManage
Dim Rs As ADODB.Recordset

On Error GoTo ErrorHandle

Set objAutho = CreateObject("Authorization.UserManage")
'strComputerName = GetComputerName
'check for correct password
If objAutho.Login(Trim(txtUserName), txtPassword) = 0 Then
'place code to here to pass the
'success to the calling sub
'setting a global var is the easiest
Set Rs = New ADODB.Recordset
Set Rs = objAutho.GetUserInfo(Trim(txtUserName))
USERID = Rs("TLNAME")
USERSUBBRID = Rs("TLSUBBRID")
If USERSUBBRID <> RetrieveProperty("SecuInfo", "BRID") Then
MsgBox "Branch ID is not valid!", , "Login"
txtPassword.SetFocus
SendKeys "{Home}+{End}"
Exit Sub
End If
frmMain.Show
LoginSucceeded = True
'Me.Hide
Unload Me
Else
MsgBox "Invalid Password, try again!", , "Login"
txtPassword.SetFocus
SendKeys "{Home}+{End}"
End If
Exit Sub
ErrorHandle:
MsgBox Err.Number & "- " & Err.Source & " - " & Err.Description
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandle
Dim obj As Authorization.Sysvar
Dim objHost As SBAuthorization.SBSysvar
Set obj = CreateObject("Authorization.Sysvar")
Call obj.LoadSysvar
Set objHost = CreateObject("SBAuthorization.SBSysvar")
Call objHost.LoadSysvar
Exit Sub
ErrorHandle:
MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
End Sub

========================================
When I click on the OK button I get the above error

Thanks in advance,
