Steve,
If you use sites in AD it might be worth checking your IP address ranges are
set correctly. I had trouble on a dual homed machine which got confused
between main and management LANs, some OM functions being at a remote site.
regards,
Richard Dann

Subject: Exchange 2000 setup, failed to contact the schema master
Fellow Exchange people,
I'm stuck.
Single forest, single domain.
Three Win2k AD GC servers, two Win2k Exch2k servers (well almost).
I am trying to install the second Exch2k server, but setup halts with:
"The component "Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services"
cannot be assigned the action "Install" because:
- Setup is unable to access the Windows 2000 Active Directory
- Failed to contact the Schema Master server for this Active Directory
forest.
The first Exch2k server installed fine, and is running like a dream.
I've done a little research, which suggested I might have a bad DNS
setup. Checked, and it's fine. Nslookup works just as I would have
expected.
It's not Q264001, nor is it Q258967.
So I was wondering if anyone else out there had seen this issue before,
and maybe resolved it...
Regards,
Steve
