Installation Account and password

Hello

I would like to realize an installation of Exchange Server 2003 on a member
server. I have always do ti on a DC Controler whit the Administrator's
Domain account.
But i know that is noty a good think.


- For a new installation on a member server :

Do have I to made the Foresprep and Domainprep's Command whith
administrator's domain account ? I think so.
For the server installation, which account to use ? Can I use local
administratot account ? Is there communicaztion with AD during installation
?

And after if I want to change regularly the administrator password, will i
have some troubles ?


- For the installation of a second server in exchange organisation :

Which account to use ?



Thanks for your help.
