I'm trying to create an exchange 2k3 cluster on windows 2k3 enterprise
member servers. The projected cluster passes the feasibility check in the
wizard. After that when I attempt to create the cluster I get an account
error "the account name is invalid or does not exist, or the password is
invalid for the account name specified". The account is a domain account
svc_cluster. It is a member of domain admins and in the local security
policy of the cluster server it has the Logon as a Service right.

What's wrong with the account?

Looks like the only difference is giving the cluster service account

exchange full admins delegation. I'll give it a try.
