I am sorry but I do not really know which part is not clear. The instructions say to put a couple of lines "before the very first OPC operation is attempted". So, somewhere in your code, before you start doing something OPC-related, put e.g.
EasyDAClient.ClientParameters.UseCustomSecurity = false;
EasyDAClient.ClientParameters.TurnOffActivationSecurity  = false;
EasyDAClient.ClientParameters.TurnOffCallSecurity = false;

and test. If that does not help, vary the false/true combinations.

Yes, this has to do with (D)COM security.
Version 5.11 is quite old, and some of the settings might have changed since.

Please read www.opclabs.com/forum/connections-reconnections-com-dcom/124...mote-machines-via-code?start=0 , and specifically (quoting : )

Can you please try to assign different combinations to following static properties - in the code, before the very first OPC operation is attempted:
EasyDAClient.ClientParameters.UseCustomSecurity 
EasyDAClient.ClientParameters.TurnOffActivationSecurity 
EasyDAClient.ClientParameters.TurnOffCallSecurity

TurnOffCallSecurity only has any influence when UseCustomSecurity == true.

Regards

Hi, I have configured the OPC server (TopServer 5.21), DCOM and all I usually need in my application.
I have installed on the same pc your library 5.11, 5.35, 2016-2.
If I try to browse the OPC server located in the same machine with your demo application, I can subscribe to any tag.

If I try to connect to an OPC server located in another machine, I can subscribe only tags using the rev.5.11. Using the other versions I have the attacched error.

I used the procedure in softwaretoolbox site to configure dcom. Do I need a different procedure to configure DCOM?

Best regards
