Manually create the routing connection from an exchange 2007 to exchange 2000

I have installed exchange 2007 in our Exchange 2000 Domain. I moved over 2
test mailboxes. Those 2 mailboxes can send mail to each other but no one
else. Everyone else's mailboxes located on the exchange 2000 server can send
and receive mail fine from anyone except those to above mailboxes. It seems
as the routing groups are not setup correctly on the exchange 2007 server to
communicate with the exchange 2000 server. Can I manually go in and recreate
the routing connector? If so How do I go about it? Also how can I get the
exchange 2007 server to send mail externally without going thru the exchange
2000 server?

TIA

That was it! I also had to create an SMTP connector to the outside world as
well.
