XADM: Exchange Server Installation Stops on Terminal Server When Logged on with Local Account (255179)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q255179 SYMPTOMS
When you run the Microsoft Exchange Server Setup program on Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition after logging on from a local account, you may receive the following error message:
This computer must belong to a Windows NT domain before Microsoft Exchange can be installed.
The computer is already a member of the domain, and it is properly configured to communicate on your local area network.
You may also receive this error message when you use a local account to install Exchange Server on a computer running Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0.
CAUSE
This behavior can occur when you log on to the computer from a local account instead of a Windows NT domain account.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, log off the computer, and then log on again from a Windows NT domain account that has the appropriate permissions to perform installations.
