Error when setting up cross forest connection between E2003 and E2007 forests

Hi folks,
I'm having a problem at the final step of setting up a cross forest connection between an E2003 and E2007 forest.
I'm referring to the Exchange Help file under the 'Configuring Cross-Forest Connectors' section and referring to the last scenerio "To configure cross-forest connectors between Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2003 servers in separate forests".I could do the first 2 steps, but hit an error at the last step to add AD permissions.
Here's the syntax of my script:
[MSH] C:\Documents and Settings\exchadm>Add-ADPermission "EX07SVR\Default EX07SVR" -user "E03DOMAIN\E2007CF01" -ExtendedRights ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Authentication-Flag,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Sender,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Authoritative-Domain-Sender,ms-Exch-Bypass-Anti-Spam,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Exch50,ms-Exch-Accept-Headers-Routing,ms-Exch-Accept-Headers-Forest,ms-Exch-Accept-Headers-Organization,ms-Exch-SMTP-Submit,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient
My new Exchange 2007 server name is EX07SVR and the old Exchange 2003 domain is E03DOMAIN. I had created an ID E2007CF01 and added this ID to the Exchange Domain
The error I got is:
Add-ADPermission : The operation could not be performed because 'EX07SVR\Default EX07SVR' could not be found on DC1.EX07FOREST.NET.At line:1 char:17
+ Add-ADPermission <<<< "EX07SVR\Default EX07SVR" -user "E03DOMAIN\E2007CF01" -ExtendedRights ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Authentication-Flag,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Sender,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Authoritative-Domain-Sender,ms-Exch-Bypass-Anti-Spam,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Exch50,ms-Exch-Accept-Headers-Routing,ms-Exch-Accept-Headers-Forest,ms-Exch-Accept-Headers-Organization,ms-Exch-SMTP-Submit,ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient
Has anyone else encountered a similar problem?
Thanks in advance! :)
