i did change the redirection to redirect 2003 users to our 2003 front-end server but now i got a 400 (bad request page) page. [PS] C:\Windows\system32> Set-OwaVirtualDirectory -Identity " AMS1-CAS-01.eu.acme.com\owa (Default Web Site)" -Exchange2003URL https://2003front-end/exchange
Outlook works fine though. When i test from 2003 front-end server https://localhost/Exchange shows me the OWA login page. However when i browse to https://webmail.acme.com/Exchange (our public OWA URL) it uses the redirection but it redirects to https://2003front-end/exchweb/bin/auth/owaauth.dll I have been checking Michael's article http://www.windowsitpro.com/article/exchange-server/Migrating-from-Exchange-Server-2003-to-Exchange-Server-2010-A-Small-Organization-Perspective/6.aspx and followed it. The only difference in my setup is that i exported the SSL certificate from or old frontend to the new CAS server On Mon, Jul 12, 2010 at 7:18 PM, Michael B.
