To all users who have upgraded Win2000 to Win2003.

The Marc Reynolds fix is the correct solution - but you need to add
the following step before re-registering the dll's:

The win2003 upgrade is flawed - it does not upgrade the programs in
this folder

C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole

We also had a clean win2003 install - from that we replaced all the
files in the upgraded win2000 server folder with the correct files
from a clean win2003 install. This fixes the problem.

After replacing the files - then register the correct dll's and
re-enable RRAS. It may also work to just replace those two dll's but
we did not test this.
