This is probably more than you need, but it is my Activesync Bible:
You need to make sure that you have Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 Installed - http://www.microsoft.com/d
Open Up Exchange System Manager - Start, Programs, Microsoft Exchange, System Manager. Expand Servers, Right-Click your server and choose properties. This will display whether you have SP2 installed or not.
If you have installed SP2, check on https://testexchangeconnec
Ensure that port 443 is open and forwarded on your firewall to your Exchange server.
Please check and mirror the settings below - Open up IIS and expand the default website then Click on the Directory Security Tab:
Exchange Virtual Directory
· Authentication = Integrated & Basic
· Default Domain = NETBIOS domain name - e.g., yourcompany
· Realm = yourcompany.com
· IP Address Restrictions = Granted Access
· Secure Communications = Require SSL NOT ticked
Microsoft-Server-Activesyn
· Authentication = Basic
· Default Domain = NETBIOS domain name - e.g., yourcompany
· Realm = NETBIOS name
· IP Address Restrictions = Granted Access
· Secure Communications = Require SSL NOT ticked
Then issue IISRESET from Start, Run
Make sure that the name on the certificate that you are using matches the FQDN that you are connecting to e.g., mail.microsoft.com. If it does not match, either re-issue the certificate if you created it yourself, or re-key the certificate from your SSL certificate provider.
Ensure that the IP for the Default Website is set to All Unassigned
Ensure that Forms Based Authentication is NOT turned on under HTTP Virtual Server under Exchange Protocols. If it is read http://support.microsoft.c
ASP.NET should be set to version 1.1 for all virtual directories listed above.
Issue is resolved. Thanks to Ash007, illusion28, & alanhardisty. Thanks again!!!!
