Re: admt 3 error

I am not seeing this service either. Does it pertain to MSDE service?
I have the exact same issue with mine and I am running ADMTv3

As I recal you have to manually start the Password Export Service on the
source DC. I believe it's startup is default set to manual. Are you using
the migrate.chm help file as guidance?

Tarun,

Thanks for the suggestion but I already have done that with no luck..

rebooted. "

folder
on the Windows Server 2003 installation media
and while installing gave the path of the .pes files which is stored on
the
local machine
then try to migrate

Hope this information will help you

I am trying to migrate an existing win 2k3 domain to a new win2k3
domain (we
were bought). I have admt 3 installed on a win2k3 server in my target
domain, and have genereated the pes file. I installed the password
migration
on a dc in my source domain, and rebooted. I have set all the nec,
registry
entries, groups etc...

when I attempt to migrate, a user and migrate password I get
"Unable to establish a session with the password export server. The
specified service does not exist as an installed service."

I have looked every where nad tried reinstalling the password
migration on
my dc, and i can't find anything. I've searched multiple news groups
and
other are having similar issues, but nobody seems to share the final
answer.

Can someone please help?
