Migration questions from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

Dear Forum Members,

I'd ask just two short questions, regarding a migration from Small Business Server 2008 (Exchange 2007) to 2013. We installed the two Exchange 2013 servers, configured a DAG and updated every single URL (OWA, ECP, AnyWhere, Autodiscover etc.) to be a mail.domain.com record (DNS round robin, since no HW load balancer :( )

Thankfully, the mail flow between the Internet and the other Exchange 2007 users are still working. Now for those users I've already migrated, if I check outlook connections there are several connections for GUID based servers via the DNS Round Robin name proxy (the AnyWhere address). But I saw that there are still just one connection (type: Exchange Public Folders) to the old 2007 server. Is it okay? I'm a bit afraid to uninstall it because of this.

And the other thing: Based on what I wrote, do you think I've done it good? Or could I miss any important things? You are much experienced than me in these migrations so I hope that I can get some confirmation/advice here :(

ps: Is it good if I set NTLM authentication for Outlook AnyWhere?

Thank you really much for your help,

Best Regards,

Chris

Sorry I missed that nobody have ever used Public Folders in this domain on the old Exchange 2007 server!

Sounds like you have a public folder database on the Exchange 2007 environment, which is why they are trying to connect to the old server.
