Any TransactionScope Issues

Is anyone using TransactionScope to handle transactions on cross-context or multiple updates to the database. I understand that it uses the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) service to handle the transactions.

I like the simplicity it provides, but when I started using it I ran into various exceptions that seem to have to do with how the MSDTC is configured. I am hoping to deploy using a clickonce environment and don't want to have to configure the MSDTC on each workstation. So for now, I've returned to using the dc.Connection.BeginTransaction() style of transaction handling.

I was wondering if anyone has run into these issues or has had a better experience using TransactionScope. I'd appreciate any comments on the subject.
