Hi

I'm trying to port an Axapta 2.5 with Enterprise Portal to a Ax 3.0 SP3 but ran into a problem with the COm connector.
In 2.5 it was possible to have the same COM connector running several Company Accounts with it's own subdomain logging into the same Axapta:

http:/mysrv/CAccoun1
http:/mysrv/CAccoun2

This doesn't seems to be possible in 3.0... The COM connector just shows an error on the webpage:

Microsoft Axapta Business Connector er tilsluttet et andet Microsoft Business Solutions-Axapta-system og kan derfor ikke logges på det angivne Microsoft Axapta-system.

(Translated from Danish):

Microsoft Axapta Business Connector is connected to another Microsoft Business Solution-Axapta-System and can not log on to the specified Microsoft Axapta-system.

Am I missing something or is this "by design"?
How do I get one IIS running several company accounts?

Thanks

    Answer from Microsoft:
    Many things had happend in the structure of our Web application from 2.5 to 3.0.

    To answer your questions, I would like to describe it like this:
    For every Company you need to have 1 separate COM running. Normally 1 machine can only run 1 COM object in memory, but there are solutions:
    1. Win2003 Enterprise you have something called COM partisioning. You can run several COM objects in their own memory space.
    2. Another solution that is much easier. 1 IIS server per COM.
    3. Other partners have made a Com wrapper that works like COM partisioning
    4. Virtual servers: They act like separate machine.
