I sort of see where you are going with this but to ask a really dumb question...I don't see a group/user called "Exchange Full Administrator" on the main site and it works here. Is there some specific permission that gives what you are talking about?

When it gets to the stage of doing the setup, I tried to change the install status of the top item to "UPDATE". Once I do it gives me an error that says it can't install for three reasons (see below). If I go into the log that the setup routine creates ("Exchange Server Setup Progress.log"), the errors all say a derivation of the following: [09:44:44] Prerequisites for Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services failed: The component "Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services" cannot be assigned the action "Update" because: - You must be at least an Exchange Full Administrator at the Administrative Group level to run update. You must use an account that has been granted the Exchange Full Administrator role on the current administrative group, or a higher-level role, using the Exchange Administrative Delegation Wizard. - Setup is unable to access the Windows 2000 Active Directory - Failed to contact the Schema Master server for this Active Directory forest. I am logged in as the administrator of that machine...why won't it work?
