Where do I find the security tab in my AD.

I have read your link and It seems to be ok in the IIS under exchange

If you click on View from the Menu, then select Advanced Features, the tab should magically appear!

The accounts do not have the permission ticket on.

I have other cell phones accessing the network (IPhone and cell phones with windows mobile), it works OK. But when users are trying to access the network with android they get this error message.

Please run through my article, check your pre-requisites, check the iis settings, run the Activesync test on the test site and report back the results.
