The symptoms listed in the excerpt of your setup log file seem to indicate some sort of network issue. There are several different networking issues that could cause this problem, including host name resolution failures, incorrect DNS settings, etc. Given that your system also failed some of the basic NetDiag tests, I would start by resolving the failed tests.For example, can the new Exchange server and your DC ping each other by their IP address? How about by their fully-qualified domain names? If you use NSLookup, do you see the appropriate records in DNS for the new Exchange server? If, after examining everything, you don't find anything that is configured incorrectly, you might want to run a network capture while re-running Setup on this system. This will show you what systems the new server is communicating with and it will also show you any problems that you might have (e.g., name resolution errors, etc.)
