Issue: If the DCOM launching user is set to a local machine account, domain users cannot log on to some modules. Example: If you log on to a workstation with a user ID on Domain A, and log on to Financial Management with a user ID on Domain B (or any domain that Domain B can access), you cannot connect to a Financial Management server on Domain B.
Solution: Perform an action:
Set up a one-way trust relationship from Domain B (Financial Management Server) to Domain A (Financial Management Client). Oracle recommends this method.
On Windows 2008, set the DCOM Default Authentication Level to Connect on the client.
In environments other than Windows 2008, set the DCOM Default Authentication Level to None on the client.
Caution! | Turning off the DCOM authentication on the client turns off DCOM authentication for all DCOM applications on the client. |
