Hi Readers that come stop by to my blog by google I believe :D

I am in the middle trying to install Microsoft Exchange 2010 at Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit at my Virtualbox. and i have several problem in the installation progress. so i tried to google it and found 2 blogs that solving my problem.

one is : http://exchangeblogger.wordpress.com
The article was written by -Zohaib Hafeez

another one is : http://www.mediazone.nl/post/Installing-Microsoft-Exchange-2010-the-botlenecks-and-the-fixes.aspx

both blogs are really good and all credits should go to them. however i will put the here the content of the article in case both site are inaccessible.



In order to install Exchange 2010 Client Access Server role installation on Windows 2008 R2 its one of the pre-requisite that you change the startup mode for Net. TCP Port Sharing service from manual to automatic otherwise you will see this error during Rediness Check.

Here are some of the errors I had during install since not all prerequired features were met in my server 2008 installation:

“The start mode for the Net. TCP Port Sharing service must be set to Automatic before Setup can continue.”
Exchanage 2010 Error
Resolution:
Change startup mode of “Net.Tcp Port Sharing Service” from Manual to Auto by running this command in PowerShell.
Set-Service NetTcpPortSharing -StartupType Automatic


Error:
