Error while proviioning RMS Server SP2

hello all,

I'am triying to provision a RMS SP2 Server on a Windows 2003 SP1 Platform 
and I use a SQL 2005 SP1 server on a Windows 2003 SP1 server platform to host 
the RMS database. The provisioning process fails with the following error :
NB I use a domain service account for RMS

Windows Rights Management Services could not be provisioned on this server.

An error occurred during the provisioning process. Any changes made during 
the provisioning process have been rolled back. See Windows Rights Management 
Services Help for more information about the provisioning process.

The network path was not found

at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Bind(Boolean throwIfFail) 
      at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Exists(String path) 
      at 
Microsoft.DigitalRightsManagement.Configuration.ProvUtils.EnsureGroupMembership(
String 
strTargetComputer, String strUserName, String strDomain, String strGroup, 
Boolean fShouldBeMember) 
      at 
Microsoft.DigitalRightsManagement.Configuration.ProvisioningBase.EnsureUser() 
      at 
Microsoft.DigitalRightsManagement.Configuration.ProvisioningBase.Run() 
      at 
Microsoft.DigitalRightsManagement.Configuration.UI.ProvisionCommon.Page_Load(Obj
ect sender, EventArgs e)

Any idea about the origin of this kind of issue ?


Thanks

The issue was solved and was linked to a desactivation of the SMB port (TCP 
445) on our RMS Server. The error message given by RMS was not explicit 
(network path not found) but interesting information regarding ports needed 
for the provionning process are available at the following link
