                When adding the role, add the required features
                Select the following role services:
                    COM+ Network Access
                    Distributed Transactions:
                        Incoming Remote Transactions
                        Outgoing Remote Transactions

2).    In the Component Services, My Computer, Properties
                In COM Security, Launch and Activation Permissions
                Go to Edit Limits
                Add an entry for ANONYMOUS LOGIN and Allow all options
                (Local Launch,Remote Launch, Local Activation, Remote Activation)

4).    Reboot the iPE Master server
