Re: Windows Mobile Active Sync

That new cert sounds messed up or you missed something in the installation.
The fact you are getting errors in IE gives me that idea.
I cant imagine a Twate cert would be not trusted.
You should review the install docs and if needed contact Thwate.

I'm facing one road block after another.

I've just installed trial cert from Thawte into my owa site. Active Sync now fails with a different code:

"The security certificate on the server is invalid. Contact your Exchange server administrator or ISP to install a valid cert on the server.
Support Code: 0x80072F0D"

I also get cert warning when using IE7 to access OWA. It looks like I have to install root CA on my browser. I can do this easily on IE7 but unsure how to do it on my WM5 phone.

I don't mean to complicate matters, I have one last question. I'm going to use ISA2006 to publish OWA. Do you think there will be another road block for me? At the moment I'm doing the test without ISA box. Incoming port 443 requests gets redirected to my Exchange box (directly).

Yea. We use Thwate. Definetly better priced!

I've looked at Thawte site. Thawte (and Verisign) provide free trial SSL cert. I'll give it a shot.
Thawte pricing isn't as bad as Verisign. If the trial cert works fine, I'll get Thawte cert.

I'll take a look at the links. Thanks for your help.

You might be able to do this.

It did this before with a non standard cert.

Im not WM expert, but one thing I have learned is that if you are not using tier 1 certs like Verisign or Thwate, you are going to have issues!

You're right. With WM6, I still can't sync :-(

Where can I get a free (commercial) SSL cert for testing purpose?

Great. Thanks Martin. Now I gotta find someone who has WM6 phone to test it.

According to this:

Yes, WM6 supports wildcard certs.

I suspect that wont be the end of your issues with certs, but thats the answer you were looking for.
WM is very fussy with certs.

I'm testing Active Sync on my Windows Mobile 5 cell phone. I got Support code: 0x80072F06 error. Problem is I installed wildcard SSL on my OWA. My google search result says that Windows Mobile 5 doesn't support wildcard SSL. Does Windows Mobile 6 support it? If version 6 is the same as version 5, is there a way to make it work with wildcard SSL?
