Re: User can't connect WM5 device

Yes, ActiveSync for WM2003SE and earlier and AS for WM5 are *not* the same.
Different results are expected.

Don't bother trying AS 4.1. Use AS 4.2 or AS 4.5.

I'm not an expert at all in domain administration or what being an
administrator means for the local machine. You have to be a local machine
administrator to have AS work, in general. If you *are* a local machine
administrator and it doesn't work, then check for interference from
firewalls, virtual private network software, virus scanners/script blockers,
etc.

User on that computer can't synchronize WM5 device. User present in local
Administrator group and member of Domain Users group. I can syncronize WM5
only when I login as local Administrator (not domain user, not domain
login - login domain is Computername). When i login in domain - i can't
sync, even if i login as Domain Administrator...
WM2003 devices on that computer synchronize exactly even under User Group
(even not Power User) of Local Computer and member of Domain Users.
Active Sync is 4.2 (I am trying AS 4.1 and 4.5beta on other computer -
same result).

If "no errors found" why "Unable to establish a connection"? I am crazy?
