I have a fresh install of win2K Server - just a member server. When I boot up I get a service failure notice. Event viewer tells me that MSDTC has not started. When I go to services to try to start it, it will not. I can't find out what it is for and if it will be needed. I want to install Exchange 2000 on it also.
