Browse All TopicsI created my own self signed cert with SA and want to sync my HTC 8525 WM6 with Exchange 2007. The self signed cert works with OWA when I import it in my browser into the Trusted Root folder. If I copy it to my mobile device and install it; wm6 puts my cert in the intermediate folder instead of the root folder. If I can find a way to import it into the root folder on my mobile device I believe it will work.
Is there any registry hack to disable the certificate check on wm6? I found a disablecertchk tool but it dosn't work for me. When I run it it says can't open registry. My device is connected to my pc and active sync detects it. Maybe something is wrong with my cert or the way I export it?

I got it working! I went in IIS and export the cert to .PFX and import it to wm6. I notice it copy a cert in the intermediate and root folders. The intermediate contained my external addresses and the root contained my internal server name (I don't know if it suppose to be like that). I rebooted the phone and setup active sync. Thanks guys and gals! This is a great site keep it up.

I haven't worked with WM6 much, so I can't answer your question, but I'd simply suggest just buying a valid cert - There are a ton of places to get very inexpensive certificates from. This will not only work for you, but any other users you want to later add without having to jump through any hoops.
Not to mention that any Exchange 2007 server should have a certificate installed on it for OWA and RPC over HTTPS.
