Hi

I have a WM6 smartphone with active sync 4.6 on a xp pro pc and a sbs
2003 server(internal LAN and access ti internet).

I have set up the phone - and it is receiving email when out and
about from our sbs2003 server - no problem !

How ever, when in the office, and I put a usb cable into the device
attached to XP Pro PC, it will not sync with the exchange server!

The device is pointing at our external fixed IP address to collect
email when out and about.

When I go into Active sync .. tools / configure server .... we have
our external IP address here.... I do not want to keep change this
setting every time I attach the smartphone to the PC.

How do I set the WM6 device or PC to work with internal lan use and
external out and about use ?

Thanks

R

Hi,
Try installing vxutil from www.cam.com to confirm you can ping the server.
I would check that the PC in the office can access the Exchange server via
the external IP address.

Did you confirm that any software firewall on the PC that could be blocking
the request?
