Message Queue MSMQ always defaults to workgroup instead of domain mode on SBS 2008

I don't know too much about MSMQ. I need to install it on a client's machine. It is a small business server 20开发者_Python百科08.

I installed MSMQ (including the messaging queue and Directory Service Integration) However, it always defaults back to workgroup mode instead of domain mode for some reason, i tried so many different things, still didn't work :(

I am on a SBS 2008, so the domain is actually local domain. Domain is something like SysServer.local

I am wondering would that cause any problems? Any gurus out there that could help?

There is atleast 2 common problems causing this.

• From the server manager, when you install the msmq feature, it says it will install the directory subfeature as well but it doesn't(according to this).

  Can you check again to make sure the directory subfeature of msmq was installed, you might need to install the directory feature again, manually. btw, you can also check this from command line:

  servermanagercmd -q

  the stuff in green is the stuff installed

• Also, msmq may not work after a computer has been renamed, you could use ADSI Edit, and drill down to the the msmqConfiguration node, check that it's using the current GUID of your server, not the old one.
