TS and Windows Mobile Devices

[Guest Douglas Brantley]

We want to sync Windows Mobile devices to Outlook 2007 while connected to the

Terminal Services server via a Remote Desktop session.

 

Is this possible? How?

 

Can you make Activesync "see" the attached WIndows Mobile device connected

to the Local PC USB port?

I don't know about how to make the local USB be seen in TS, but this

is what i setup for one of my clients

 

They have a windows CE thin client machines (local and over a VPN)

that connect to the TS, i was unable to find anyway to make these work

with a palm/blackberry/windows mobile.

 

What we did is install a blackberry entreprise server that connect to

thier exchange server. BES does all the syncing over the cellular

network for emails, contacts and calender. the only little hickup we

have is that the blackberry phone needs to be synced initially via

USB to a PC that is logged in with thier usernname and outlook profile

to that the BES can link up the phones PIN to the user's email boxes

on the exchange.

 

BES is a software that you can run on a seperate server or even on

your exchange server. there used to be a free 1 user downloadable

version, and can be bought for a little as 5 users. you can buy it

directly from Blackberry.com or sometime you can get your cellular

company to supply it. we got ours free because we bought enought phone

and signed a contract for the phones

 

versions exist for Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Notes and Novell
