RE: [OT]O2 XDA EXEC Exchange Active Sync

["Andy Bone" <andy@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rob,

Is this the same cert that I put on the Webserver? I am not an expert on
the niceties of certification :lol

I think this may well be the answer, as I have been googling like mad on
this, and did find another reference this morning that suggested the same
as you have just done.

Only trouble now, is that I am at work and the XDA is at the home office,
so it will have to wait until tonight to get this tested. One good thing
that has come out of this playing around is that my OWA is now configured
to use SSL whereas it was not before :-o

Will try this tonight, and will post back here how i get on, so that any
others may fInd my trials of some use if I get it working.

Andy

it will ask you if you want to install it. Simple as that, no tool needed.
