I'm trying to setup exchage anf all goes well with thte
installation. When it tries to finialise the settings it
tries to read a file called server.ins on the cd. It
throws out the error message

" cannot read from file d:\server\setup\i386\server.ins at
or around line 205, path specified not found"

I can look at this file fine and read from it, but setup
can't, anyone ever seen this ?

Its not a dirty cd, i coppied it to the harddisk and got
the same error.

Regards
Paul

You may be running Terminal Services on that Server. By default, Terminal
Server runs in the Execute mode. You need to change this to Install mode in
order to run setup on that server.

Try the following:
1) Go to a command prompt on that server and type the command:
change user /install
2) Then try running Exchange Setup
3) After Exchange installation is finished go back to command prompt and
type the command:
change user /execute
