Dear Python/DCOM experts, I just tried to do a remote dispatch of Google Earth in DCOM, but it didn't work: import pythoncom, win32com.client clsctx=pythoncom.CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER i = win32com.client.DispatchEx("GoogleEarth.ApplicationGE", "IAD-PC10", clsctx=clsctx)

I actually tried this last summer on linux and I think in order to make it work right I had to use the hotplug features AND udev. I had to use udev because I needed a specific mount path, otherwise it just picked the next in the list if there was more than one drive. I ended up skipping that proj
