Most places will put a common account/password on both boxes. For example
"MTSComponent" and "somegoodpassword". You set the COM package to run as
this account, then on the other machine, you have that SAME account and
password setup - and set the DCOM package to run as that account too..

So when the DCOM component goes to establish a connection with the first
machine and it says "Hey, who are you?" - it says "I'm MTSComponents!"..
then the COM server says "No you're not... but, you have the same name and
password - so you must be fine, I'll map you to my local MTSComponent
account"..
