C# 2005:-DCOM list reteriving

[arnie]

Hi
How can we enumerate the list of DCOM components that are listed in
DCOMConfig [opened using dcomcnfg from Start>>Run menu] and then
subsequently change [if possible] their properties like
Authentication
Level etc. I think it is similar to WMI but I do not have any idea
about it
Thanks

Arnie,

For edification, you are looking for COM+ application configuration.

There is an automation model that will allow you to access this
programatically. You can do this by adding a reference to the "COM + 1.0
Admin Type Library". This will create an interop assembly with the
automation types you can use to administer COM+.

Of course, you will need documentation, which you can find here:
