Recently, I had to configure MSDTC on a Vista machine. However, I could not locate the Component Services Manager in the Control Panel > Administrative Tools console in Vista. After a few minutes of googling, I found out that all I had to do was run c:\windows\system32\comexp.msc

If you do not have Run on your Start Menu, you can click on Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. This would launch the Command Prompt where you can type c:\windows\system32\comexp.msc and press Enter to launch the Component Services Manager :-)

Cheers,
