Re: Certificates on .local domain



Hi,

The "common name" of the certificate should match whatever DNS name you are
using in your phone to connect to the Server ActiveSync or OMA website.

For example, my SBS server has in the .local domain (and that's how we
access it internally).

However, for external access it has a host.adopenstatic.com FQDN. The
certificate that I installed has a common name that matches
host.adopenstatic.com

Cheers
Ken

I got it working once. After I madeome changes but haven't got it working
anymore.
I can accept and install certificates to my phone and that is not the
problem.
The problem is on the server and with the certificate. And as I mentioned
I
got it working once but not anymore.

Hi,

Are you connecting to OWA over HTTPS (SSL)?

The problem with some phones is that they will not allow (at least by
default) to see the pages protected with certificates that they do not
trust. So the simple solution is to buy a certificate from commercial CA
server like Thawte or VeriSign.

Hi,

we are using SBS2003 with outlook web access and active sync.
I have been trying to make working certificate with more or less
success.

How should it be made.
Our sbs domain is with suffix .local. We have a public IP address for
our
server.
I can connect to OWA with public IP address. But how should the
certificate
be made so I can use OMA in my mobile phone in this case?
