Comment on Securing Exchange ActiveSync with Client Certificates – LAN Access by Facundo Ortiz

No me funciona. Error de SSL.

Testing HTTP GET:
Response: Error en el servidor remoto: (501) Sin implementar.
Inspect the HTTP code given above.
501/505: This is correct behaviour, and means it is responding!
403: The server requires SSL and will not let you connect over HTTP.
401: Wrong username/password. May also occur if you’re using a reverse proxy which performs authentication.

The iPhone will not work, so don’t spend any more time on that You will not be able to enroll via the web page either – that’s just used for test purposes and a simple “instruction” to the web service. To enroll a device you will need the domain enroll feature, which is only available on WM 6.1/6.5. If you’re using the Windows Mobile emulator and can’t see this icon check with OS version you are using. If it’s WM 6.0 or earlier it is not present.

I’d follow the steps in this article: . Start out with the “Unable to Enroll Device in Domain” section.

with no luck. I am still holding out hope this can be done with a iPhone becuase I get the same website on my windows mobile emulated device that I do from a web brower on my iphone.

I am trying to connect a iPhone to the MDM (while this may not work) when I run the device emulator for a windows mobile phone I do not seem to have the “domain enroll” in the settings of my device. When I try and put the server address in manually I get the iis website, but it never has a box or anything that pops up wanting a un and pw. It looks to be more of the “test” site with “shouldenroll” links and “enroll” links etc. I am sure you guys know the one. What am I missing? Do I have to use the domain enroll feature? The MDM sends me the email etc. It seems like to me I am just missing one step somewhere … any help still out there? Thanks James

GetUserInfo is invoked when you configure the account in Outlook so this would be a natural place to include authentication. I do not know all the details of the xml sent to the web service, but if you check out http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb277361.aspx all the details should be there. I used that article as background for my code, and as far as I can see MSFT has expanded this article after I originally posted this.

Comment on Restricting Exchange ActiveSync Access by Andreas

This setting only controls what is synced down by default when a new mail arrives. For instance the default is 3kb which means only 3kb will be downloaded if you receive a 10kb mail. But you can open the mail and select that you want to download the rest as well. The theory behind the setting behind that if you receive a large html-formatted mail you will not bother to download it all, and thus save on the data traffic. So while you can save on the data download for your users you still can’t prevent them from reading emails in general.

Hi there,

great post!

To answer Swift question about limiting to calendar and contacts only during allowed device active sync, I was wondering (since I didn’t test it) as a workaround, to set the value of this Exchange 2010 ActiveSync policy “Maximum e-mail body truncation size” to 0 (it is in kb). It would allow you to sync emails but maybe only subjects which is closer to what we want there.

So, Andreas, if you have tested this, can you please share the results?

thanks!!

Hello,

this is a great one, I am trying to work this out, but what if I want to authenticate user where this happens? what does the envelope look like that is sent as request to GetServiceInfo and GetUserInfo, where the authentication takes place?

Comment on Setting Email Signatures From Your MDM Platform by Andreas

It should be possible. I had a brief look at it last year, but most likely there’s something buggy in my code because the line break wasn’t escaped correctly so it didn’t work as expected. I can try to take a look at it with fresh eyes, and see if I spot something obvious that would allow me to add multi-line support.
