How to Run Exchange Server 2003 DomainPrep

  • Artigo

 

DomainPrep creates the groups and permissions necessary for Exchange servers to read and modify user attributes in Active Directory. You must run DomainPrep before installing your first Exchange server in a domain.

Before You Begin

Before you perform the procedure in this topic, consider the following:

  • Before you run DomainPrep, you must have run ForestPrep in the forest.

  • Before you run DomainPrep, make sure the schema changes made during ForestPrep have replicated throughout the forest.

  • The account you use to run DomainPrep must be a member of the following groups:

    • Domain Administrators for the local domain

    • Local Machine Administrator

  • You must run DomainPrep in the following domains

    • The root domain.

    • All domains that will contain Exchange 2003 servers.

    • All domains that will contain Exchange Server 2003 mailbox-enabled objects (such as users and groups), even if no Exchange servers will be installed in these domains.

    • All domains that contain global catalog servers that Exchange directory access components may potentially use.

    • All domains that will contain Exchange 2003 users and groups that you will use to manage your Exchange 2003 organization.

  • You do not need any Exchange permissions to run DomainPrep
