PS2007 install

I have ps2007 and proj prof 2007 installed on the new server. trying to
configure SharePoint 3.0 - configuration DB. Get an error in the wizard step
2 of 9 which says,"An exception of type System.Security.SecurityException was
thrown. Additional exception information: Local administrator privilege is
required to update the Farm Administrators group."

I have looked high and low and cannot find a 'Farm Administrators' group.
Anyone have experience with this...or even an idea?

Using WindowsServer 2003 - DB is SqlServer 2005.

Frustrated - any help appreciated.

Confused !!!

Are you trying to install WSS on a server that already has WSS/PS ? If so,
why ?

The error message suggests the actions you are performing need local admin
rights on the server. Have you checked this ?

No, not "install" (just finished that), but "configure" WSS---content DB,
SSP, PWA app, etc.) Further research showed that SP2 hadn't been installed
for Win Svr 2003. Did that and the wizard ran smoothly.

Thanks for your interest, though.
