ActiveSync Woes

So I'm just looking for some advice from some people who have successfully implemented SMC in their workplace. After installation. I am able to register devices and everything seems to be working. I'm a little confused on how the ActiveSync/Email stuff is supposed to work. 

Am I supposed to continue using the old ActiveSync URL (webmail.company.org) or am I supposed to be using the URL of the SMC Server (mdm.company.org). According to a KB article it says I should be using the URL of the SMC Server but I am not able to connect. If I connect to the old URL for OWA/ActiveSync then I can't disallow/deny access to non-compliant devices because I believe I am skipping over any Proxy SMC puts in place. 

Help!?

  • Hi there JHynes. I am just setting my system up too, and have a similar configuration (IIS6, Exchange 2003). I was able to get mail working throught the SMC with a bit of playing around. I ended up editing the database directly, but you I think you should be able to do the same thing through the Configuration Wizard. The path I put in "ActiveSync enabled Exchange Server name" was:

    my.internal.exchnage.server/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync

    I also turned off "Use SSL". I know that's not a good final solution, but I'm just testing at the moment. Also, both servers are internal in my network, so SSL is not vital at the moment. Then, I pointed the iPad to the external SMC server address and it worked.

    Your server may not have the same "Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync" path, but you should see that in the IIS config. Also, you can test that path straigh from a browser within your network.

    Hope this helps, and please post any results or other solutions you find to help out!!

    Cheers,

    Paul.
