HFM Failed to register server: Access is denied

HFM requires full access for ANONYMOUS LOGON in DCOM Limits Configuration.

This can be set up as follows:

    Open DCOM configuration console: run 'dcomcnfg' from Run or Command Prompt
    Open up Component Services / Computers
    Right Click on My Computer and choose Properties
    In the Launch and Activation Permissions, click the Edit Limits button

This button may be disabled using Windows Security Policy. To enable this button the following Windows registry keys must be removed:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\DCOM\MachineAccessRestriction
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\DCOM\MachineLaunchRestriction


Once these keys are removed and the system restarted you can use the above steps to add ANONYMOUS LOGON in the Edit Limits section. Once this is done, open Configuration Utility and register HFM to Shared Services.
