System.Enterprise Services DPAPI

I have just written a COM object which ties into a roaming user profile so
that I may use DPAPI on many machines and have the same encryption and
decryption. When I install it on 2 of my servers it works great one server
can decrypt the other server's data. That tells me that the roaming profile
is being used properly. Now if I put the same profile on my development
machine (XP SP2) I cannot decrypt data coming from the servers and the
servers cannot decrypt the data from my machine. During this time the
servers can still function as mentioned above. My machine is also configured
with the COM component as well and I can encrypt and decrypt my own data.
Any thoughts on why this might happen?
 
Hi moonark,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you're having problem to run DPAPI on
your windows xp machine. If there is any misunderstanding, please feel free
to let me know.

Could you let me know what occurs to the user on this issue? Is there any
error messages returned? Or you just cannot access the service? Please
provide me with more information especially the error message, so that I
can deliver my assistance more quickly.

Thanks!

Kevin Yu
