Re: Trying to get PocketPC to sync with server - please help!

Your admin should easily be able to get you a .cer file. Either that, or
you can get it yourself by simply going to the OWA website, viewing the
properties of the certificate, and exporting it. Windows Mobile devices
don't do .pfx files.

Here in our organization we are running Exchange 2003, service pack 1 and
it's running on Windows 2003 server. The server is accessible by Outlook
Web
Access (OWA). I have a mobile device - a Pocket PC (Samsung i700) running
Windows Mobile 2002. I'd like to sync my device to the server over TCP/IP
(it's a phone also, so is on the net when needs to be). I entered the
server
IP address into the ActiveSync menu on the device, and it tries to
connect,
but it doesn't work. The error I got has something to do with
certificates.
I found on-line an executable to run on my device which adds the
certificate, but the certificate won't open the .pfx file that my Admin
gave
me. It wants a .cer file. Does this make sense? I don't really understand
any of this in detail but it seems I'm close to making it work, if I can
get
the thing to accept the certificate. Can anyone provide any instructions,
or
info I can pass on to my admin as to what needs to be done server-side?

Thanks,

Mike
