In my option you did the correct thing by creating a COM+ DLL. The only
step I see you missing is that you need to register the DLL in COM+.
Once you have put the DLL in COM+, assign a domain user that has rights
to the boxes you are trying to start/stop the services on.
Thus, when a person invokes the methods you had crated, start/stop
request to the servers will attempted with the creditials you had set
when you registered the DLL in component services.
BTW: I've done this for many web applications i've coded where
authentication is needed that grants the web user account greater
rights on the network.
Thanks,
Samster
