Server Execution Failed 0x80080005 when browsing Remote computers

When trying to browse Remote OPC Servers, I get the error: Server Execution Failed 0x80080005

Verify that the DCOM Security is configured correctly. You must ensure that the security policy does allow you to gain access to the resource of OPCENUM.EXE; you must also ensure that the user-account used for the OPCENUM is one that has access. You should also be using the latest verion of OPCENUM.EXE available at:

http://ftp.softwaretoolbox.com/support/updates/OPCEnumInst.exe

Also see the DCOM tutorial at: softwaretoolbox.com/dcom for recommendations on how to configure your system.
