How to edit Component Services through a MSI
Hi everybody,
I've received a demand to build an MSI about an application called Iscala, this application, after the installation, needs to configure some things on the PC, such as Component Services. There, I have to edit the tab COM security to insert two users, then I have to choose the MSDTC tab and to change several configurations there.
Is there some way to do that through a MSI with Wise??
Thanks a lot for your help!

Not natively, no. You'll need to build a script and use the automation object (whose name escapes me for the moment) and/or DCOMCNFG, the latter driven from the command line (without which, the UI loads)

a lot of that stuff is registry based anyway. You could capture the changes to find out the keys etc.
i like to use "advanced registry tracer" for small reg tasks like that. The result is a .reg file which can be imported to your packages pretty easily.

Do any of you folks worry about just how much junk is floating around in your head?
