17 3.4 Configuring the network for access to the DNC Cell/Plant host computer 3.4 Configuring the network for access to the DNC Cell/Plant host computer Introduction and DNC Cell/Plant communicate with other computers using DCOM. The DCOM communications layer is closely linked with the domain structure and the user administration of Windows. The configuration options for DCOM are very diverse and cannot be done generally. This documentation describes only a simple standard case as an example. For further configurations, contact your system administrator for the associated plant or the technical support. Requirement The following settings must be made as standard in order to set up communication via DCOM. The user logged-in to the controller must be known to the corresponding DNC host computer via a login or as locally created user. Access rights In order to use a different user from the logged-in user, a dedicated DCOM login for the DNC server exists. If the logged-in user does not have sufficient access rights to the host computer, no configuration can be made. Note If the user is created locally on both PCU and server, the user passwords must be identical. NOTICE The configuration described below can present a security risk in the network. Under certain circumstances, a dedicated configuration may be necessary, i.e. purely at the level where communication between the applications takes place, as opposed to the global configuration described below. NOTICE PCU 50 with Windows XP SP2 If a PCU with Windows XP Service Pack 2 is used, the Windows Personal Firewall must be customized appropriately so that network access is possible.
