SYMPTOMS
========
When you run the Microsoft Exchange Server Setup program on Microsoft Windows NT
Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition after logging on from a local account, you
may receive the following error message:
This computer must belong to a Windows NT domain before Microsoft Exchange
can be installed.
The computer is already a member of the domain, and it is properly configured to
communicate on your local area network.
You may also receive this error message when you use a local account to install
Exchange Server on a computer running Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur when you log on to the computer from a local account
instead of a Windows NT domain account.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this behavior, log off the computer, and then log on again from a
Windows NT domain account that has the appropriate permissions to perform
installations.
