Sounds like FBA isn't enabled on the 2003 server. It needs to be.

Michael or anyone else.
Question re this procedure.
If using ISA between the 2 exchange servers and the big bad internet, and so 
FBA is disabled on the exchange servers can this work.
FBA is enabled on the ISA server.
It seems to almost work,
If logging onto a 2003 account via the 2010 server owa url, I get prompted to 
login twice, and after entering the credentials the second time, I login fine.
Both exchange servers are single server setups.
Or is there a better way of doing this during the co-existence period?
Thanks.
Glen.

If you correctly set up your Exchange 2010 server, it will redirect Exchange 
2003 users to the Exchange 2003 server.

A couple of excerpts from an article I had published earlier this year:

Next, configure the Exchange 2003 OWA URL that Exchange 2010 will use to refer 
OWA clients whose mailboxes are hosted on the Exchange 2003 server, to that 
server. For this example, open an EMS session and enter:


Set-OWAVirtualDirectory Clark2008\OWA* `

-Exchange2003URL "https://legacy.clarksupport.com";
....
As mentioned earlier, Forms-Based Authentication (FBA) must be set on the 
Exchange 2003 server for OWA to allow for seamless transfers from the Exchange 
2010 server.

Using the Certificates MMC or the Exchange 2010 EMC, you should now export the 
SSL certificate that we created earlier in this article to a PFX file (ensuring 
that you export the private key!). Copy the PFX file to the Exchange 2003 
server and import the key there, also using the Certificates MMC.

Using the IIS Management Console, modify the properties of the Default Web Site 
to use the new SSL key. This will allow the "old" Exchange to accept both the 
legacy name (legacy.clarksupport.com in this example) and the current name 
(mail.clarksupport.com in this example) until DNS is updated. Once the update 
has happened, execute "iisreset" or reboot the old server to begin using the 
new certificate.
....

Subject: OWA Question during transition to Exchange 2010

We have a facility that is currently running Exchange 2003 SP2 with an OWA site 
of mail.company.com in their own forest. This facility has a trust to an 
Exchange 2010 Resource forest. The URL for this facility points to their 
Exchange 2003 server to serve up the OWA requests. We are moving mailboxes from 
Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 and would like to keep the mail.company.com URL 
link the same for the users of this facility. However, I am trying to figure 
out the best way to keep this link working so that users can still go to one 
link, regardless of where there mailbox is located and be able to sign in. Once 
all users are moved over to the Exchange 2010 server, we are going to 
transition the link to point to the Exchange 2010 server, but until then, I 
would like to keep this link intact and not change anything during our 
transition. I am trying to find some articles about this situation, but not 
really coming up with anything that makes sense. Any input on this topic is 
appreciated.
