How do I prevent network machines from starting up servers on my computer, such as the TrendWorX Logger?
There are two ways to do this. In the DCOM settings under the application tab select your server, for example, ICONICS TWXSQLSvr HDA Server and choose properties. Under the Identity tab choose This User and specify a local user on the computer. The other method is to select the Security tab and choose Custom Launch Permissions. Click on Network if it is available and choose Deny Launch, or add it if it is not available. This ensures that only users on the local machine can start instances of the server.
