Lync Forest Preperation

Hi,

Can any one tell me why I am getting the error in the screen capture below, it worked fine on my test bed which is a direct copy of the live system? I am using the same account I did in the test bed which should have full domain control. I am not an AD admin so this is probably something really simple I am missing.

Thanks

    For forest prep, I believe you also have to be in Schema Admins

    Try running Enable-CsAdForest and see what you get. I've seen weird cases where you even need to specify -GroupDomain, -GroupDomainController, or -GlobalCatalog value for this command.

    that ran with out issues from power-shell? And now when I go back in to the Lync set up it says forest preparation is complete!?

    Oh well I wont complain and thank you very much for the tip :)
