Msg 7391 and distributed transactions

Hi,
We are wondering what setting needs to be changed to get a large distributed
transaction to run.
We have a W2K3 server, upgraded from W2K with SQL2000 SP3A applied that can
run a large distributed transaction to another W2K3 server, upgraded from
W2K with SQL2000 SP3A applied. When we try the same transaction to a newly
created W2K3 server with SQL2000 SP3A applied we get the 7391 message. We
did notice a difference in a setting for MSDTC that we made the same but
this has not worked.
Is there something that we missed because the new server is not an upgraded
W2K3 server from W2K?
Thanks

MS-DTC...Some vulnerability info required

hi...
Sorry if i am putting question at wrong place, guide me.
I have tried 2 exploits (available on net) of Distributed
Transaction Coordinator at 4 different 2k machines.
But after execution of exploit, i dont see any change in
behavior of DTC. It works as it was. The target systems
do not have the required patch/service pack.
Kindly put some suggestions or take me to appropriate group.
Take care...bye
Ok, why 2000 and not 2003 R2? Why are you trying to get in? From the inside
of the network or outside? What exactly did you try? What patches did you
think would fix it?
This could be the case where a later patch fixes the issue or your testing
is a little off. Either way - move to 2003!!!!
Cheers,
