Hi There-

I am attempting to set up a Treo 700w using Exchange ActiveSync. I have
tried this with 3-4 different Exchange 2003 Servers all running SP2, and
continue to get the same errors on the Treo 700w. I have worked with both
Verizon Wireless and Palm support and they are basically saying they are not
sure what the errors represent and are also stating that they are not
documented errors from Microsoft. And of course to talk to Microsoft, it is
a $245 fee. When I use the default SSL connection it acts like it connects to
the server, states it synchronizing, and then fails with error code
0x80072F17. When I uncheck the SSL box, and sync, it takes much longer, and
never really fails, but does state at the bottom of the Treo that is waiting
for network and then I found an error code of 0x80072EFD. Has anyone come
across any of these errors? I'm stumped and have spent countless hours on
this already. Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Mike Johnson

If your SSL does not match actual server name(outside) it will not work, for
example actual server name is exch.domain.com
and the server name to the outside is blah.domain.com, and SSL is issued to
exch.domain.com. (it will fail at the authentication)

I followed these instructions and setup my exchange sync (if you are not an
exchange admin, you will have to ask your IT deparment)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;817379

One thing I noticed with 700W is... if activesync is installed on a desktop
machine, and 700w ever synced with exchange through the activesync, it will
try to use USB connection no matter what and will fail to wireless-sync.

To support exchagne sp2 and wireless sync without problem, you will need a
front-end server.

Good luck.

Here is the error I am getting know from my SBS 2003 Exchange Server:

Result:
You have an incorrect SSL certificate common name in the Host Name field.
For example, you may have entered www.tailspintoys.com when the common name
on the certificate is actually www.wingtiptoys.com. Make sure the server
name is entered correctly.

Support Code: 0x80072F06

What am I missing?? Thanks for your help.

Mike

You have an SSL but it is one of the following

1. As I explained already your SSL does not have the right server name.(get
another one)
2. You have a self generated SSL(buy one)
3. SSL is expired.(renew it)

:-)

just got off the phone with Palm support.
According to the technician I spoke with said that
50% of the calls are related to this issue and even
though the certificate was issue by verisign is
not one of the CA supported by the new Palm device.
This is is incredible. I also asked if installing it on the
Treo would help and he said " No".
