Trying to set-up Exchnage 2k3 on win2k3 server SP2

October 29, 2007

I am running win2k3 server SP2 (and logged on to this machine) and am trying

to set-up Exchange 2003 server on it. This win2k3 machine (not the FSMO or

AD enabled) is a member of a domain that has a FSMO win2k3 server. This

machine and the FSMO are connected to the same router which is connected to a

DSL modem (that is connected to the Internet). The DSL modem is bridged with

the router. The router runs the DHCP. This machine and the FSMO have static

IP's (non-routable). However, the FSMO (due to the bridge with the router

and DSL modem) has the routable IP address when seen from the Internet.

I get this information from the dcdiag tool:

Domain Controller Diagnosis

Performing initial setup:

Done gathering initial info.

The host

174b3cfd-fdbb-4db2-ba87-9a7a2c16d06b._msdcs.domain_name.com could not be

resolved to an

IP address. Check the DNS server, DHCP, server name, etc

Although the Guid DNS name

(174b3cfd-fdbb-4db2-ba87-9a7a2c16d06b._msdcs.domain_name.com)

couldn't

be resolved, the server name (www1.domain_name.com) resolved to the

IP

address (xx.xxx.xxx.xxx) and was pingable. Check that the IP address

is registered correctly with the DNS server.

The Exchange 2003 forestprep hangs, I guess because of the information from

the dcdiag tool. Furthermore, the netdiag tool says everthing passed.

(1) The FSMO DNS has the (non-routable) ip 192.168.1.10 host (A) record.

What do I need to do to the FSMO DNS? Or, do I need to do it at the FSMO DNS.

In the dcdiag tool report, the pingable ip is the routable ip from the

Internet.

(2) Or, do I need a different arrangement with the win2k3/Exchange 2k3

machine and the FSMO?

(3) Is having the win2k3/Exchange 2k3 machine and the FSMO/AD/DNS on the

same router (behind the DSL modem that is bridged with the modem) a problem?

I'm still lost here. Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: Trying to set-up Exchnage 2k3 on win2k3 server SP2

Hello,

Check that your exchange has the Domain Controller as primary dns.

The DC must have itself as primary dns server (and no secondary dns server

in your case)

RE: Trying to set-up Exchnage 2k3 on win2k3 server SP2

Thank you that helped!!! I appreciate the advice! I do not understand why

this change worked. Can you explain, so I can expand my knowledge base.

Now, when I run /forestprep with Exchange 2k3, I get this message. Either I

do not have sufficient privileges/permissions or AD is too busy. I logged on

at the win2k3 server (not FSMO) with the admin account of the win2k3 FSMO

server. On the win2k3 FSMO server, I checked the "Member Of" tab and it says

administrator is a member of Enterprise and Schema admins.

Here is a dump from the Exchange Server Setup Progress log:
