Is Exchange already installed in that forest? You need to be a member of the Enterprise Admins and Schema admins group to do that. There is also only 1 Exchange environment per Forest restriction. If you already have one that exists, you cant add another one. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822942Mark Morowczynskihttp://almostdailytech.com

Hi,You need to contact your Exchange Admin since only one Exchange organization can be installed per forest and youneed to install additional server in the same forest which requires Schema/Enterprise & Domain Admin rights, they might not allow testing in production environment which may require some additional settings for your software to run with Exchange server.Otherwise you can create a separate testing environment which should be isolated from production environment and test your software by installing a DC & Exchange in it...Amit Tank || MVP - Exchange || MCITP - Exchange 2007 || http://ExchangeShare.WordPress.com
