AdminLib GetBTSMessage: hrErr=80070002; Msg=The system cannot find the file specified.; when installing BizTalk 2006 R2

I'm building a test BizTalk 2006 R2 server for our test environment and as part of the BizTalk Group Configuration, the wizard failed and showed the following error in the log file.

AdminLib GetBTSMessage: hrErr=80070002; Msg=The system cannot find the file specified.;
 I found this to be a result of Network DTC not being configured correctly. The following needed configuring on both the BizTalk server and the remote SQL Server 2005 machine.


Goto Component Services / My Computer / Properties / MSDTC Tab / Security
Configuration and Enable Network DTC Access

Enable Network DTC Access
Allow Remote Clients
Allow Inbound
Allow Outbound
Mutual Authentication Required
Enable Transaction Internet Protocol (TIP) Transactions

I found the fix here
