I am trying to install EXCH 2k3 on a new server that is running W2K3. My pdc is a separate server running W2K3. I keep getting an error stating that I do not have the appropriate permission to update the AD schema, although I am using an account with the appropriate permissions. Please help. See log below.

Thanks

Make sure that the account that you are using is a member of the Schema Admin account.
-Run setup /forestprep directly on the PDC server.

-Also you would need to examin the Exchange setup progress for more detail on the error that you are getting.
-How many domain Controller do you have

Let me know if that helps

If you run Forestprep for the first time in a Forest, the required permissions or role is to be Member of the Schema Admins and Enterprise Admins groups. Other than the first time, the Exchange Full Administrator permissions at the Exchange organization level will do
