In a multiple resource manager/DTC case - agreed.  But in the simple case of a single 
RM it's
probably not worth the overhead of DTC compared to hand coding the transaction start 
and end
points, especially if you are implementing data manipulation code in stored procedures.

Are we talking about call security, or role based security.  Role based security is 
something I
have yet to find a real use for.

What resources?  COM+ introduces a number of areas of overhead in terms of time and 
memory.

In the old ASP/COM world scripting ASP is poor compared to components in VB/VC++ in 
terms of error
handling, debugging support etc.  Since you're going to the effort of coding up 
components, you
might as well go the extra mile to COM+ and get the extra features for relatively 
little
additional effort.

However, with ASP.Net there is less of an incentive to go down this route since the 
coding model
in ASP.Net is first class.  I really see COM+ being much less important in .Net.
