I have a Win2k server box I upgraded to SBS2000. The upgrade went well but I
had problems installing Exchange. Anytime I try to re-run the setup wizard
to add a component, I get a "Active Directory Configuration Error" at the
end of setup. Some components seem to be added but get the error
none-the-less. I don't get any AD errors in the App logs or the Sys logs.
The server itself seems to be running fine but I question my AD. Any ideas?

did you ever have a BDC in your 4.5 install? If it works and the logs are
clear I would say the wizard went TU

Thanks for your reply. I upgraded from Windows 2000 server but yes, I did
have another DC on the network. Before I upgraded, I moved the FSMO roles to
the new server and made it the Global Catalog. Did I miss something else?
