I've just installed VS2K5 R2 on an existing Small Business Server 2K3
R2 with a client Windows Server 2K3. This is a testbed server I'm
using to play with Virtual Server. I only installed the Admin website
on the SBS install (under the Local System account) with the intent of
administering both machines from SBS. Now, when I open the Admin
website I see the following error:
"The service principal names for Virtual Server could not be
registered. Constrained delegation cannot be used until the SPNs have
been registered manually. Error 0x80072098 - Insufficient access
rights to perform the operation."
Followed by:
"Virtual Server successfully started."
If I try to switch Virtual Servers using the Virtual Server Manager
using the dns name or the IP, I get the following error:
"Could not connect to the Virtual Server on "ts.test.local". The
server is unavailable.
You can specify an alternate Virtual Server below."
It looks like the problem switching to the alternate VS in the VS
Admin website if because constrained delegation won't work unless the
SPNs are registered manually as described in KB890893.
My questions are:
1) Is it OK to install Windows Server 2K3 SP1 Support Tools on SBS &
manually register SPNs, using Setspn.exe or ADSI Edit, as described in
KB890893?
2) Would it be best to just ditch the idea of managing both machines
from the SBS server & install IIS/VS Admin website on the client
server too?
Thanks for any help!
