Re: forestprep install problem permissions

[Leif Pedersen [MVP]]

Hi,

Could it be that someone already have run forestprep?

Try to install exchange system management only and if there is an exchange
organization rightclick on this and select delegate control - here you can
see which account has full exchange admin roles.

I try that as well and I saw that I have full admin right. then went back and
try to install forest prep. It stop right at "Update Active directory Schema"
and display the error saying that my access was denied because I don't have
an administrator rights. And I'm login in as an administrator. I even add the
administrator as part of the Domain Controller, Schema Administrator Group as
well. It still gave me the same error? Is there a way I can solve this?

Thanks,
Danny
