Hi all,

I've just gone back to an old problem I had a few weeks ago regarding the
cfobject tag and connecting to COM objects.

Essentially, in the past I was having problems connecting to the Objects in
question -"Class not registered" error message.

At the time, Dave Watts suggested to test connection via VB and check the
User account under which CFServer is running.

OK, I managed to get everything working nicely earlier in the week with
using a brand new machine, fresh install of CF, third party software which
uses the objects and the COM objects themselves.

Now, I've gone back to my templates and am getting the "Class not
registered" error message again. The only thing I can think of that has
changed now is the User account under which CF is running. Have tested the
COM objects using VB successfully. So how do I change the account which CF
runs under?

The only account change was the actual password (default NT Administrator
account). If the problem is in fact down to something as trivial as changing
the NT Administrator password, surely this would lead to problems for many
others, as it is good practice to regularly change system passwords,
especially on servers exposed to the public web.

Thoughts and insights to this much appreciated,

Dave
