Hello folks
In this new article, I want to talk about what has to be done during the implementation of Outlook Web App (OWA) in an Exchange 2010-Exchange 2003 coexistence scenario. Until all the mailboxes are transferred to the Exchange 2010 server, you have to make the legacy Exchange 2003 mailboxes reachable through an Exchange 2010 Client Access Server (CAS) machine (if you want only one connection address for all your mailboxes). Let me explain what my scenario is like and then talk about what happens during the transition from Exchange 2003 frontend server to Exchange 2010 CAS.

ACTIVE DIRECTORY PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION OF CAS SERVER
At Day 1, we planned our new Exchange 2007 organisation and we decided the order of jobs we have to do. After this introduction part, we can get into the real job; installation of Exchange 2007 servers. But first is first, i have to control the level of forest and domain infrastructures (whether they are 2003 native or not). In addition, i have to control the DC’s Operating Systems and Service Pack levels (whether they are at least Windows 2003 SP1 or not). After these controls, i logon one of the DC’s and install Powershell 1.0. After that, i put the Exchange 2007 DVD on the DVD-ROM drive and enter the commands (shown below) in command line prompt. At this point, i want to give an advice to you that you should back up your Active Directory before these commands. Because we are changing / adding lots of attributes directly to the Active Directory schema with these commands (anything can happen). I prefer to wait enough time after each command, to be sure that everything is working well. Here are the commands:
