CAUSE
The Exchange Server service account does not have the required permissions.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, add the Exchange Server service account to the local Power Users group or local Administrators group on a member server. On a domain controller, add the account to the built-in Administrators group.
WORKAROUND
To prevent this problem from occurring, verify that the service account has Administrator permissions before you attempt to install Exchange Server 5.5 on a Windows 2000 Server computer.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5. MORE INFORMATION
The minimum rights necessary for the Exchange Server service account on a member server are Power Users rights. However, if installation problems occur when you use the local Power Users group, add the Exchange Server service account to the local Administrators group. Also, if the local Power Users group is not available because of the type of installation that was performed, use the local Administrators group.
