-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark Harford Sent: 19 March 2002 15:50 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange 5.5 -> 2000 Upgrade grief Are you able to install Exchange System Manager by itself? If so, drill down to the relevant Administrative Group and pull up the properties. In there you can reselect the Exchange 55 Service Account details that will have been stored in Active Directory the first time you tried installing Exchange 2000. If you can not install Exchange System Manager then you could test the following in a lab scenario [1]:- Run up ADSIEDIT and connect to the Configuration Container for your Forest. Drill down to Services, Microsoft Exchange, <Org Name>, Administrative Groups, <Site Name>. Right click, properties, Scroll down and check... msExchLegacyAccount msExchLegacyDomain Correct them if necessary [2] Then when running setup again you can enter in the correct password. Mark [1] I have not tested this myself so can not vouch for it at all.
