I have two Domain Controllers on two different subnets. They seem to be replicating without a problem per the replication monitor tool. I have created a dedicated Windows 2000 server for a 2nd Exchange 2000 server because the two subnets are on separate sites (Europe & USA). We've had a bit of trouble with the USA based Active Directory site - a crashed server once, and a few failed Exchange installs. This new problem comes after we managed to add a 2nd Domain Controller (to replace the crashed server) in the USA site.
My problem:
During the very beginning of the Exchange 2000 install, the Exchange wizard installer refuses to move forward reporting this error:
"The component "Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services" cannot be assigned the action "Install" because: - Active Directory has not replicated all the necessary permissions for the deleted items container. Please wait until replication completes before running setup."
I have tried everything they recommend in the MS Knowledge base for this problem to no avail. I even tried giving the logged in admin account that I am using every known credential possible. Any ideas ?????????????? Mind you there are a few ghost DC's that I have no idea on how to remove from Active Directory.
