Any guides on Exch2003 to Exch2010?

[XistEnCe]

Hi!

 

I was wondering if anyone have any guides they reccomend when Edit: migrating transitioning (it's within the same forest) from an Exchange 2003 environment and over to 2010?

I've already setup the 2010 server, but haven't configured it yet.

 

Any pointers / links / guides would be very much appreciated!

The guide got me far along the way of getting to 2010!

 

But now I'm stuck..

 

After moving a mailbox from 2003 to 2010 - I can't recieve e-mails anymore!

Is this just poorly configured recieve connectors?

 

And the second issue is, when I try to access the webmail - with the old url(which should be the same), it tries to redirect me to the 2010 web-access part, but it tries to find the server on it's internal FQDN.. Which obvously doesn't help me much, from the internet..

 

Any pointers on this is VERY much appreciated!

Hi

 

Have you been able to solve the issues?

 

If not,

How are the mail flow configured?

When you have migrated the mailboxes to the new server you will need to publish the CAS server instead of your 2003 server

Hi!

 

Kinda forgot about this post untill now!

I'm still battling with the mailflow..

After a mailbox is migrated (or is made on the 2010 server), it still can't recieve e-mails.

Sending works just fine, but if someone tries to send an e-mail to a box on the 2010 server - a failed to send message pops back, and the inbox on the target mailbox is just as empty as before.

 

This is what you get in return:

 

Meldingen kom ikke frem til noen av eller alle mottakerne.

     Emne:	tester

           <2003exchangeserver.domain.local #5.7.1 smtp;550 5.7.1 Client does not have permissions to send as this sender>

 

(Pardon the Norwegian message, and I can translate if needed!)

 

What's wierd in the above reply is:

The old mailserver gives me the reply AND "client does not have permissions to send as this sender"?

Sounds like the 2003 server, can't pass on the message to the 2010?

 

Do I HAVE to publish the CAS(2010) server?

Will it never work having 2010 "in the background" for now?

Faulty connector fixed, now on to getting the 2010 CAS handle OWA instead of 2003..

I really wish I knew how it was fixed but a colleague of mine actually did it.

Definitly doing some digging, when things are up and running 110% and I will for sure post the fix here!
