That worked...sorta. Now when I get to that point I get: Multiple components cannot be assigned the requested action(s) because: - Setup is unable to access the Windows 2000 Active Directory - Failed to contact the Schema Master server for this Active Directory forest.
The second part of the message did not show this time. That is good but still getting the above. Thanks for all the help....you are so helpful!

I have a test Exchange environment that I am testing an in-place upgrade on. On the Components Selection page, I click on Upgrade (only option available) and I get the following error message: Multiple components cannot be assigned the requested action(s) because: - Setup is unable to access the Windows 2000 Active Directory - Failed to contact the Schema Master server for this Active Directory forest. The component "Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services" cannot be assigned the action "Upgrade" because: - Setup has determined the display name of the Organization or one of the Exchange Sites in your organization is greater than 64 characters or contains at least on of the following invalid characters: [EMAIL PROTECTED]&*()_+=;:./? (including a leading /trailing space). To correct this, you must use the Exchange 5.x Administration tool to change the display name of either the organization and/or the affected Sites and then re-run setup. The name of my Exchange 5.5 Organization is MacombISD.org. I inherited this server already built with the MacombISD.org Organization name. I believe it is because of the "." in the Org name. Just wondering if anyone has run into this and how complicated is it to fix? Anyone ever seen this? Any tips.
