Remote Server Administration Tools (On Server 2008)

Posted on by

KB ID 0000169 

Problem

After 20 minutes of Googling I was scratching my head. I wanted “Active Directory Users and Computers” on a 2008 server, that wasn’t a domain controller. I thought as Vista had the same codebase, then Vista RSAT would work, (but it wont.)

Solution

After a bit of stumbling around, I found it, its already on the server as a “Feature” its just not turned on.

Click Start > Server Manager > Features > Add Features > Scroll down to Remote Server Administration Tools > Active Directory Domain Services Tools > Tick > Active Directory Domain Controller Tools > Next.

Exchange 2010 – “You Don’t have sufficient permissions to view this data”orHow to Add an Exchange 2010 Administrator

Problem

When using the Exchange Management Console (EMC). You see the following error.

Solution

As with most errors, it’s self explanatory you need to grant permissions to the logged on user, In Exchange 2007 we could do that in the EMC, with 2010 we cannot.

Exchange 2010 uses Role Based Access Control (RBAC). So we need to add the rights in Active Directory.

1. On a domain controller Start > run > dsa.msc {enter}

2. Locate the “Microsoft Exchange Security Group” OU, then you should see the “Organization Management” Group > Add your user in there.
