How to Change the MS Exchange Server 2k Service Account

[DarkHat]

Hello All,
I'm trying to change my service account on my Exchange 2k...
I don't want my services to start with localsystem...
I try to change it for a domain admin user...
But when I do that some of my services do not restart...
I know it was possible do do that in Exchange 5.5 but can we still do it in 2000 ???

Thank you

This is not possible in E2k, the services must be started with the local system account. There is no "service account" as there was in Exchange 5.5.

Hope this helps
