troubleshooting Question
PowerShell - Unable to find a default server with Active Directory Web Services running
We currently run two Windows 2008 SP2 domain controllers and one RODC at a remote site - also running Windows 2008 SP2
The domain functional level is set to Windows Server 2008
I have just installed our first Windows 2008 R2 SP1 server into the domain and installed Exchange 2010 on this server. As we are moving from Lotus Notes this is the first installation of Exchange within the domain
The Exchange installation was successful but when I go into PowerShell on the R2 server I get the following message –
WARNING: Error initializing default drive: ‘Unable to find a default server with Active Directory Web Services running’
Do I need to install extra roles / features on this server or the domain controllers themselves
