Install Exchange 2007 on Windows 2003 in a Windows 2008 domain
Hi,
I'm trying to install Exchange 2007 RTM on a Windows 2003 SP2 server in a test domain with only a Windows 2008 domain controller, but I can't get past the pre-requisites of setup. I get the error that there are no Windows 2003 SP1 or higher global catalog servers available.
How can I fix this ? Do I need an Windows 2003 DC ?

It should be supported but untill Windows 2008 RTMs you can't be sure

Hi,
According to the docs and blogs Exchange 2007 RTM is supported with Windows 2008 domain controllers, but with Windows 2008RC0 it clearly isn't. Today I downloaded Exchange 2007 SP1 beta and that one install fine.
