If I understand you correctly, try putting the [ClassInterface.AutoDual] on
the clas definition (from memory) and also, use the COM+ export wizard to
generate a proxy installation file for the component from your server. In
your VB6 (once you install the library that you exported from the previous
step), you can reference the component and it will execute on the server via
DCOM.
