Installing and Configuring MS DTC on W2k8 R2 Cluster

Hi

I have built  2 node failover cluster using Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise, all works fine - next step is to install MS-DTC before SQL 2008.

So, have added the DTC elements of the application role to the 2 nodes, and then went to add the DTC resource to the cluster itself.  When entering the DTC resource name (AD name) and the IP address I get an error that I don't have rights in AD to create the resource. This is not unexpected as its a large company and they only give out admin to certain containers - I anit one fo the lucky ones.

So, I raise a request to get a new computer object to be created in the correct container, and get full control rights assigned to my account, the cluster nodes and the cluster computer object.  I also get an IP address assigned and added to DNS (another request to another team !).

Try to create the DTC resource again, different error - this time its telling the resource already exists - no surprise there as i went through all the hassle of getting it created.

Question is this... If I am to use a pre-created DTC computer object in AD, should it be enabled/disabled, should it have particular rights assigning or is it simply not possible to use a pre-created object ?

Thanks
