Hello All
I am having trouble of DTC to get working thru firewall
The setup we have is
Two web servers load balanced. Componets run off the web servers. (OS:2000 Server
Two SQL server clusered.(OS: 2000 advanced server)
Web servers and SQL Servers are in different domain separated by firewall
Components do not work if I set "transaction required". If I changed it to "Transaction suported" or "not supported" some componets do work
I tried suggestions from kb article
DTCPing: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=30684
Initially DTCping had some problem but for testing purpose we opened all ports on firewall. It worked
I tried another config suggestion
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=25036
When I apply the registry entries for ports mentioned in this article, it disabled Clustering service. I was not able to get it back until I revert back registry settings
I tried DTCtester utility, it doesn't work
Does any one know why it must be disabling the clustering service? or Have any other suggestions on configuration for DTC thru Firewall
Thank
