• Do NOT Use default Administrator account. Create a new Domain Administrator such as 'Administrator2' and set here. If you use default administrator account this may result in problems later on when you modify password of the account. You will need to change the password in the control panel as well and sync with all remote servers again, otherwise you will loose connectivity with the remote servers.

• Make the domain administrator;administrator2 member of Domain Admins, Enterprise Admins, Exchange Servers, Exchange Organization Administrators, Group Policy Creator Owners, Schema Admins, Exchange Trusted Syb-System group for Exchange 2010 and local Administrators groups.
