Creating COM object from asp

inetserver asp components:

I have a problem.
I've implemented Out-proc COM object - 'obj' in server - 'serv.exe'. If I
create this object from VB script, or C++ client, It works correctly.
But if I start my server (run serv.exe, or create 'obj' from client), and
try to create it from asp - it works fine, but new process will be created.
So when I do 'Server.CreateObject("Serv.obj")', it doesn't create object in
old process, but the new process "serv.exe" will be started. Please, answer
me, how to solve this problem with two processes.

GetObject(): ASP runs in the IIS process space, which is held in MTS/COM+
(depending on OS version). GetObject() is allowed in MTS/COM+, which will
attempt to get a running version before spawning a new object.
CreateObject() is designed to "create" (ie, instantiate) an object).

You should find some good tutorials on MSDN.microsoft.com or
support.microsoft.com for using GetObject().
