RE: [ActiveDir] problem running 2003 Server adprep /forestprep
I think he was mistaking you running W2K3 domain prep with you running E2K domain prep. If you have the reskit loaded, run whoami /groups to see if those groups for sure show up in your token. If you don't have reskit, go to .joeware.net and download sectok from the free win32 tools page and run that to verify if you have those groups in your token. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thommes, Michael M.

RE: [ActiveDir] problem running 2003 Server adprep /forestprep
Hi Joe, Thanks for the thought but it looks like the account I tried is in the right groups: [Group 1] = ANL\Domain Users [Group 2] = Everyone [Group 3] = BUILTIN\Administrators [Group 4] = BUILTIN\Users [Group 5] = BUILTIN\Pre-Windows 2000 Compatible Access [Group 6] = NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE [Group 7] = NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users [Group 8] = LOCAL [Group 9] = ANL\Domain Admins [Group 10] = ANL\Group Policy Creator Owners [Group 11] = ANL\Enterprise Admins [Group 12] = ANL\Schema Admins Any other ideas? Thanks.
