The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How to use iphone with exchange self signed ssl?

Asked by totalimpact in iPhone, Exchange Email Server

Tags: exchange iphone 3g 2.2

I have an iphone 3G frimware 2.2 that I am trying to connect to an Exchange 2003 Standard server with all the latest service packs and patches to date, it is the only exchange server.

I have a redirect on the default website that forwards immediately to https://server/exchange forcing ssl. I dont want users in OWA without SSL. I normally dont use Forms Auth, but I have tried using it, and turned it back off, as it doesnt seem to work well with my redirect.

I followed this page to build a new virtual server for exchange oma without ssl, but i am not sure if it worked: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/817379

mydomain/oma seems to work perfect, i login, and it shows all message in IE.

I exported the ssl cert from the server (tried every format), emailed it to a gmail account on the iphone, and installed it.

I followed this guide for setting up the iphone:
http://blog.fosketts.net/2008/07/10/how-to-set-up-iphone-exchange-activesync/
selected Exchange account, his guide seems to differe slightly as its for a 2.0 firmware, and 2.2 has a seperate "domain" field, rather than putting the domain in front of the username- so heres what i filled in:

assume my domain is acme.com, entered email as john@acme.com
domain: acme
username: john
password: mydomainpass
ssl: on (and tried off)

MAJOR ISSUE STARTS HERE: it prompts to accept the ssl cert, i accept, if i just let it sit there in the email settings page it prompts me for my password, i enter it, and it immediately pops up again prompting for password. If i just ignore this and open the mail client it pops up immediately and says "Cannot get Mail The connection to the server failed"
