I am trying to build out a new server space with SolidCP. I was able to install the 1.4.4 software on the web server and now I am trying to add the Server node to the AD so that I can configure hosted orgs. When I run the installer and get to the username and password section I do not check the create account in AD checkbox and enter the existing SolidCP Server account that was created with the web server. Then i get an error saying the account already exists. Am I doing this wrong? Should I be creating a new (diff) AD account for every server on the network? Or should this be using the same shared account?

Hello,

We recommend using a unique username per server. We normally will make this SCPServer-<Hostname> so for server Web1 it would be SCPServer-Web1.

This makes it easier to track the accounts and permissions required.
