According to Computer World, “Getting iPhones to connect and sync with Exchange servers can be tricky. Here’s how to make it all work smoothly.”
Then they provide a 5 page article on how to get it to work.
An earlier article looked at the mechanisms available to IT staffers to activate, deploy and configure iPhones in business environments. But this article looks at the addition of ActiveSync for accessing Microsoft Exchange.
“ActiveSync allows for automatic over-the-air push updates of new e-mails, calendar events and personal contacts to the iPhone (functionality that was already available to Windows Mobile, Palm and Symbian devices). ActiveSync also lets iPhone owners search a company’s Global Address List (GAL) using the included Contacts application, and allows administrators to enforce some security policies on the iPhone, including the ability to remotely wipe the contents of a phone that is lost or stolen.”
It then proceeds to give a detail examination of the steps necessary to get it to work.
After the brief intro, the article is divided into two parts:
Part 1: Activation, configuration and deployment
Part 2: Integrating with Exchange
