I am trying to install the admin pack on my xp pro machine. Our servers are
2003. When I try to install the admin pack I get an error that says Windows
.Net Server administration Pack can only be installed on Windows XP
Professional. Please obtain the proper OS and service pack before running
Windows .Net Server Administration Pack.
I am running Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2
Any help would be appreciated

I was able to fix the same issue by downloading the "Windows Server 2003
SP1 Administration Tools Pack" from petri.co.il site itself (12.8 Mb).
It uninstalled the existing (corrupt) adminpak and reinstalled a fresh
new copy and it worked like a charm. I was able to access AD
instantly!
Here is the url:
