I am having the same issues. I have done the regedit, the
dns change and confirmed that I am logged on as the
administrator with membership in all of the right groups
so what gives? Is there a fix or not that anyone is aware
of? I was warned by someone at microsoft that I should
not load exchange 2003 server on a production box as
there are many issues with the install and it might fail
and once you begin the install there are hooks that
Exchange puts into the AD that can never be remove and
may result in having to rebuild the machine from scratch.
Has any one had these type of issues? Is 2003 server not
ready for production?? I never had these kind of
problems with older versions of Exchange.
