I have been told that i need to run exchange server in raw mode and to do that I open up the command prompt and type admin /r.
When I do i get the following : Can't find the file admin make sure the path and file name are correct and all the required libs are available.

Anyone got any ideas as to what I am doing wrong

thanks

An easy way.

Find the shortcut to your exchange admin program.

Right click/properties/shortcut

In target you want it to be (for example)
C:\exchsrvr\bin\ADMIN.EXE /r
Where C:\exchsrvr\bin\ is the installed path of the exch admin tool.

Notice the /r at the end of the argument.

Just typing admin /r at a command prompt does you no good because the OS has no idea what you are talking about. But if you type in the full path to admin.exe and you add the /r switch, it will open up inraw mode.
