Hi !
I am trying to find different ways to synchronise with the Exchange Server that I use.
I have Outlook2007 on my home PC and synchronise my Kaiser with the PC's Outlook 2007.
I can see that I can change the location to the actual server in Microsoft ActiveSynch -> Tools -> Options
But when I try this, after a long wait it fails and gives the error message -
80072EE2
I find on a search that this means " The request has timed out. It is generally a temporary or recoverable situation. Try again later "
But it never seems to connect.
I do know that the exchange server and the home PC holds much the same info, for me, so, in reality, I do not need to synch to the exchange server at home.
But I am interested to know if I can synch, when out and about, using
a) a gprs connection,
b) the Kaisers WiFi
I am reading and searching but if anyone has any useful pointers, it would be much appreciated!
Thanks

Your best bet is to do it slightly differently.
I assume your Exchange 2003 SP2 or 2007?
If so I assume you have an OWA server setup? if not set it up.
Then just go into (on the device), activesync, Configure Server, pop in the internet name of the server running OWA, pop user/pass in, then the rest of the settings as you want them
This has benefits over syncing with Outlook, the majour one being live mail (push mail).
One downside is (depending on your lan config), that the internet name of the server will not be accesable through WiFi on the same lan. To fix this make sure your DNS server knows the internal IP of the server, and map it to the internet name (i.e. if you internet server is mail.my.com then tell your internal DNS server to map that hostname to the internal IP).
After having push mail, you wont go back....
Hi the_ape!
thanks for your reply... I don't understand all, but I will work on it!
I use Outlook2007 on my PC and it connects to the university's
owa.name_of_uni.ac.uk
I wanted to see if I could synch with the server, download emails, reply, add contacts or calendar items, and deal with them at leisure, but when I am away from home.
I know I can use PIE or Opera to go to owa.name_of_uni.ac.uk but I think a gprs connection remains active...
I could see that Microsoft email push is an option on my phone but this is all new for me!

Setup on Outlook 2003/2007:
If you have an existing Outlook profile, follow steps 1-4..otherwise skip to the next section. These steps are for XP based machine. If you have Vista it will be similar but not exactly the same.
1. In Outlook, go to File --> Import and Export --> Export to a file --> Personal Folder File (.pst) --> click on the root folder in this window and choose “select subfolders” --> Click Next --> click browse and choose a location and file name for your .pst file. I suggest the desktop. --> Click Finish --> Click OK.
2. Let Outlook finish exporting your data. This make take anywhere from 1 minute to 30-45 minutes depending on how much data you have (e-mail’s, contacts, calendar).
3. On your XP Machine, go to Start, Control Panel.
a. Make sure your Control Panel is set to Classic View (Upper left hand corner of the window). If it says “switch to Category view” then you are good, but if it says “switch to classic view” then you should click it.
4. Double click on the Mail Icon within the Control Panel.
a. Click on “Show Profiles”
b. You should see your profiles here, most people will have one one and it will be called “Outlook.” THERE IS NO NEED TO REMOVE THIS!
c. Click “Add” --> Type in a Profile name (e.g. Exchange 2007) --> Then proceed to step 1 below.
-----
1. If using Outlook 2007, At the prompt where you choose manual. If using 2003, ignore this part and proceed to the next step.
a. add a email account and choose Microsoft Exchange.
2. Microsoft Exchange Server:
3. Username: Full Name given at Signup.
4. then hit More Settings
5. then click on Connection
6. then click on "Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP" and then click on "Exchange Proxy Settings"
7. then type in mail.(your server).com for the URL
8. make sure SSL is checked
9. click on fast and slow networks, and choose basic authentication
10. Click “OK” twice
11. Then click Check Name
12. And the username/password box will pop open
13. Type in (Your Server)/User (this user is your e-mail address. For Example: your email address is [email protected], this is johndoe)
14. Type in Password
15. Server Name and User Name should now be underlined.
16. Congratulations! You are finished!
Setup on your PPC Device:
----
1. Start -> Programs -> ActiveSync -> Menu Configure Server
a. Server address:
b. Tick on ssl connection if your server uses SSL
c. Username: name
d. Password:
e. Domain:
f. Next -> Finish
g. Sync & Njoy
----
Setup on MS Entourage
1. Account name =
2. Name = Your Name Given at signup
3. Email = your email
4. Accountid= your ID before @
5. Domain =
6. Password =
7. Exchange server =
8. Check that server requires ssl....
9. Uncheck everything under advanced.
10. It should now work!
First of all thanks for your jewel job
I would want to signal the fact that I have followed step by step the whole procedure for the configuration of the server exchange but when I go to cover on the check name unfortunately it doesn't recognize me the inserted password. But is the password that of my email?
Thanks
Thanks austinsnyc!
I have read thoroughly, thanks !!
What does this mean ! " First of all thanks for your jewel job "
I am already using Microsoft Exchange on my PC using Outlook 2007.
The exchange account is managed by the local university. So I think I do not need to worry about sections 1 and 2...
I think I have a stupid question!!!
How do I find my 'domain name' ? That is the only setting I have mssing!
Now wading through uni. info to see if I can find it!

Usually it's the name_of_uni in your name_of_uni.ac.uk - if it doesn't work, you'll need to contact tech support at your uni to find out.
Hi Illrigger!
Thanks! I saw that too, on the university setup information.
On my Kaiser, that box is grayed out so I can't input it there !
I will keep at it!

once you put that @ sign in the user name feild the option for domain disappears. this is something new with wm6. so just try your email address and password without the domain. see what happens. it should work.
Yeah should be fine, you have a choice of using either the domain name, or the @ sign.
basicaly the domain name is everything after @, so username AT domain name
Let us know if there is a problem...
Oh to make sure that the Uni has the functionality turned on, try going to domainname/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync
It should come up blank on a web browser, but that is the WebServices folder for this functionality.
Hi the_ape!
could you explain this last bit more please....

because, my university often does not want to support anything other that on-site, residence and dial up services!
with 'try going to' - how am I doing this? frm a PC, Kaiser ?
If I look at my Kaiser I can see ----
Programs > ActiveSynch > Meu > Configure Server ...
I have checked the server name, but the Kaiser took this information from the PC when synching with Outlook 2007.. I feel..
SSL is ticked.
Next -
User name is [email protected]_uni.co.uk ( it is not my email address. )
Password is correct and I re-typed it...
Domain - is light green, and cannot receive input.
save password is ticked.
Advanced -
If there is a conflict - Relace Item on my Device
Event logging - none
Connection - Internet ( only internet available. )
Next
Edit server settings -
All are unchecked - Contacts, Calendar, E-mail, Tasks ... because, for now, I synch to the PC's Outlook 2007. But I have experimented with these and get the Support Code - 80072ee2
Menu > Connections show USB only.
I know, when I am at home, my Outlook2007 on the PC is kept synched with the Exchange Server.... so yes, don't need this...
But I am hoping to do this via WiFi... at University or other WiFi hotspots.
Sorry to be so unclear !
Another edit - if I click on ActiveSynch - Tools - Advanced Tools - Get Device Certificates................. There aren't any!
Ofiaich
quick question, if the name of the exchange server is different the first time you connect to it (i.e. "autodetect.name of univ.edu"), should we use that or the exchange server address AFTER it has been initially configured?
Doug2873
I got a feeling that you are correct because I got the Microsoft Exchange Server working now....
Outlook 2007 PC address on the PC was different to what I input to synchronise with my Kaiser !
Attachments in Hotmail still do not work, but don't care...! The email throught M.E.S. gives what I need !
Ofiaich
did you get it working?
Hi navigater!
I got the Microsoft Exchange server working,
but not attachments in Hotmail Live email.

I am trying to run one of the many FTP servers available for Windows Mobile (vxFTPSrv or ShareIT FTP) to keep some files in sync but I can't seem to figure out what public IP address my phone has. vxFTPSrv says it is listening to a non-routable 10.**** while whatismy ip says it starts with a 200.**** while DynDNS for Windows Mobile says it is 32.****. Nevertheless, none of these work nor can I get these programs to listen to the ports. Any ideas? Does the Tilt even get a public IP address from AT&T? Thanks.
Try this
I'm no pro, but had to tell the Physical address to the the tech guy at my university so he could enable my phone o use the wireless network...
... anyways, download and install a Registry Editor (I use Task Manager v2.8) you should be able to access an Ipconfig tab, where all the information is available.
I don't know if I'm in the right track.... Hope this helps? =)

IPer is worth buying for the increased functionality and has a TFTP client.

200.* would be a public IP. As would 32.*
Turn off your proxy setting in the phone and do the www.whatismyip.com thing. That will get you a more meaningfull result than anything else.
When I'm on GPRS/Edge (AT&T proxy settings in force) network I get a 66.102.186.15 IP address as reported by whatismyip.com. That resolves to alpmagr1fe06-dmz.mycingular.net. Which should be a att proxy server even tho it implies by its name its on a DMZ.
When I turn off the proxy for GPRS/Edge I get 166.195.188.15 according to whatismyip.com. That IP address will not respond to ICMP commands. So I assume it is firewalled. So it seems to me that yes you CAN and DO get a public IP address, its just that address is heavily firewalled.
You've piqued my interest, tho I cannot do anymore testing at this moment.
(Don't blame me for being long-winded, I'm just explaning the situation (why I want to do all these) and also to prevent people from asking questions such as "Why do you even want to host your website at home?")
I want to pay for web hosting, but, as a student, I can't. I also want to host all my Android Development on my site, apart from XDA and Samdroid. But, I can't use a credit card (obviously, my country dosen't allow ownage of CCs before 21), and free web hosts (sorry for shouting) S*CK. Slow loading, banning because of CPU-hogging/ too many cron jobs, etc, etc... Also, my parents are paranoid about their credit card details being sold online at exorbitant prices. I do understand that web hosting is expensive, and it is not really wise to allow free web hosting, and I do not want to blame them for banning me, hence I decided to host my website from home. *catches breath* I do have some prior knowledge of fixing stuff, and whipping old parts into one lean mean computing machine. I've set up the computer, and configured my router. I can view the web site (It's good'ol wordpress) when I typed my local IP into the web browser from another computer in the home network. But, when I tried to access using the public IP from my school, I cannot enter the site. I have previously configured port-forwarding. I used No-IP's dynamic DNS client in this case. When I checked my public IP using different websites, all gave me different information. One gave me an IP with 255.244.***.***, another gave me 157.209.***.***, and others gave me 255.250.***.***
1) How do I make sure that when someone types in a URL or IP, it will show me what I want them to show?
2) Why are different websites give me different public IPs? No, I don't have a firewall, or a proxy.
We need more information:
1. Who is your internet provider
2. How do you connect? ADSL/SDSL/T1/Dial up?
3. If its ADSL/SDSL then you'll have a router (unless they've given you a USB modem for it). We'll need to know what type.
4. What's your concection speed, both down and more importantly up.
Now, assuming your ISP doesn't give you web space that you could use, then you'll need the following:
You'll need a dynamic dns service, some are free.
You'll need a router which can forward http (TCP port 80) traffic from the internet to your web server.
Once the router is forwarding http traffic to the web server, people on the internet will be able to access your website.
If you want to access it using the same address then you'll have to update your hosts file on your computer.
For windows this is in C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Add an entry like:
dynamic dns web address IP address of webserver
So if you've set up arikyeo.dyndns.org and your webserver's internal IP address is 192.168.0.200 then you'd add the following to the hosts file:
arikyeo.dyndns.org 192.168.0.200

I used No-IP dynamic DNS service, with their client. But, it didn't work. I am using Singtel as my ISP, with a Linksys B/G router. I have forwarded the port 80 to the IP, and set port 80 as an exception. I can view the site locally, but not from the outside world.
Setup your no ip on their site as a port 80 forward. Forward this to the local port on your computer that you are using for the server. Log into your router and port forward the same port that you put in for the no ip into the from and to ports section and be sure its forwarding to your lan ip. After this is done then try it.

I see that you have already been told how best to start your server. I can also recommend instructions for collecting server statistics https://www.host-tracker.com/Blog/server_m/ This will come in handy for you in the future. Here you can configure notifications for server failures.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note - NOT ROOTED
1st time using Android
I may be posting similar problem that user may have face, but I tried to search for the same case and i not getting any result.
So my case is explained below
The problem:
I can connect to secured wifi network at my home and other wifi spots without a problem. But I can't connect to my office open wifi network at all. With my ipod touch,blackberry and even old nokia e72, it was a breeze to get internet access at office. After being connected to wifi, I have to go to web browser...then, it should automatically redirect me to Wifi Authentication Login page. It's not happening with my Galaxy Note android devices and is working just fine on my ipod touch.
my android devices would show signal quality as "Excellent". whenever i go to web browser, it doesn't redirect me to authentication page. instead, the connection page would time out.
I 've tried these:
-Clearing Cache.
-Factory resetting.
-Using other browsers, Dolphin,Firefox, etc.
-Apps on Android Market(Wifi Login, Wifi--etc etc.)
Does anybody have this kind of issues??? I think this is a BIG FLAW with Android OS. Need to find a fix if there is one out there
Any takers on this tread? Please do advise if you have the answer
there used to be an authentication based WiFi service in my previous work place and I could easily log in using opera mobile on my galaxy note to first log in and then browse
IAM not sure if this will help
...
try opera mobile instead of stock browser and in settings change your client to desktop
good luck
The solution!!!
Hi everyone! I've almost torn my hair out the last two weeks trying to figure out this problem. and I've found it!
It is a DNS problem.... you need to use OpenDNS or Google DNS and set it manually in your WIFI settings. Then the login page will appear now when you connect and you'll have internet. Here's how:
To change DNS settings and connect to our system from Android 2.3 device you can do following:
1. "Settings"
2. "Wireless and Networks"
3. "Wi-Fi settings"
4. Menu > "Advanced"
5. Use static IP
6. Copy current IP address (few lines above) to IP address field
7. Set Gateway as router IP (usually the same as current IP except last number is .1, i.e. if your phone IP 192.168.2.130 then router's likely 192.168.2.1)
8. Set Netmask 255.255.255.0 (sometimes it's different, but you should already know what to do if it is)
9. Set DNS 1 and DNS 2 fields as per table below (these are Google DNS values):
DNS 1 8.8.8.8
DNS 2 8.8.4.4
10. Menu > "Save"
11. Restart your phone (power cycle).
FOR ICS/Android 4.0 people:
1. Settings
2. WiFi (click on word "WiFi", not ON/OFF switch)
3. Press and hold preferred (or active) wireless network until dialog pops up
4. Select "Modify Network"
5. Check "Show advanced options" checkbox at the bottom
6. Switch "IP settings" to "Static"
7. Keep IP address, Gateway and Network prefix length the same (should be set from standard DHCP)
8. Set DNS 1 and DNS 2 fields as per table above.
9. "Save"
10. Restart your phone (power cycle).
CHEERS. Please spread widely, as this is a big problem for android users and public networks!!
Wow. This is the only thing that has worked for me.
When I changed the IP to static, the IP, gateway, network, and dns were all correct, as in your list. But they were greyed out. So I couldn't hit "save." Then I typed them in (without changing anything), clicked the save button and finally was able to log in. So something is wrong with the way android manages wifi. All the information was there, but android wasn't using it. In addition to changing the IP to static, the information has to be entered manually. Information android already has access to, but won't use for some reason.

I have the Samsung S7 and through your tutorial I am able to connect to Wifi but my company's login page doesn't come up in the browser (Opera, Chrome, Default Browser).
Any one has the other half of the solution?

To sign-on you have to do the following (credit reddit):
1. tap sign in to Wi-Fi
2. press the three dots
3. choose you network as is
4. open chrome and go to any website that will redirect you to sign in page

Still can't login. Tried the reddit solution but didn't see a "use network as is" button or anything close. Also tried to make the IP static. Still nothing. Someone please help! I'm at my wit's end!
I have a Samsung SM-G318ML Android 4.4.4 with security patch from 9-1-2016. None of the procedures above work to get to a browser logon screen. I will go down to a nearby Starbucks soon and try using the phone's "Internet" browser instead of Chrome - I have not tried that yet. Holding down the WIFI button on the screen where you choose a particular WIFI source just sends me back to the previous screen. There is nothing labeled "Control Panel." I cannot find a screen to change from automatic to static IP, nor can I find OpenDNS or GoogleDNS. Every generation of Android seems to have significant differences in accessing these features of the operating system making this a really frustrating problem. Any suggestions - beyond the obvious "get an iPhone."
Solved on 2nd hand unlocked Galaxy Note 4 that had been reset before I bought it. Solution: downloaded Dolphin browser app and an app called Wifi Browser Login, by Cedric Ho; both free from Google Play store. In the settings for Wifi Browser Login, select: Login Action. What to do if login from browser is required. Then select: Popup WebView. I then found that connecting to public Wifi triggered the usual message that the wifi had been connected to, but instead of just not getting the browser login page that requires T&Cs to be accepted, a small window appeared asking which browser I wanted to use to open that page. It had the range of my available web browsers to select from, including Dolphin Web Browser. I selected it from that window and Dolphin opened showing the T&Cs acceptance page for the public wifi I had connected to but had previously been unable to use. I have not experimented to see if adding the Dolphin browser app was necessary or not, it might be that Wifi Browser Login alone was the solution.
I am surprised that this problem has existed since 2010 and there is no solution offered from Samsung or Android.
tryRoo method works for me. Just to be more specific though. Please read the notes before giving up trying.
1. Connect to wifi as per usual (hold down wifi button to select the wifi connection and choose the connection).
2. Go to any website so that they will prompt to sign in.
3. Sign in.
NOTE:
1. Sign in page will fail to show after the first step. Ignore it. Continue to step 2.
2. After step 1, you have to sign in before the login time runs out. So, do step 2 within the time limit (I am unsure how long. Perhaps around 1min).
3. While doing step 2, not all website will prompt you with the sign in page. Only after I have tried to login to my company website, that the sign in page appear. I have tried yahoo.com webpage, it doesn't work.
I am using Samsung Note 3 and Hotel wifi (I dun think this matter).
I hope this method works.

I have the same problem and am surprised the fix is so complex, and it sounds like it might be specific to one network which isn't much use if like me you are travelling around using dozens of different networks.
However, something I have discovered is that, for me at least, this issue only exists when the browser tries to connect to an https address (which includes google and most sites it seems). But if you try to connect to a regular http site ( I use the Indepent newspaper (uk) by default but I can't post the url) then it generally redirects me to a log in page successfully
YOU ARE A GENIUS!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this "fix." This problem has almost made me lose my mind!
I copied and posted my original post via the nexus thread. i thought i'd repost it here since i'm guessing some of the other note users may have done this too. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Please note that I got the app to work with my stock rooted rom. Now i'm just trying to get it to work on any wifi network as opposed to just my home wifi network.

1. Install CopSSH for Windows from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sere...r.zip/download
2. Extract the .exe file from .zip file and run the setup. During the setup, you will be prompted for a username and password, make sure you specify this and make it something you can remember (you will need it later).
3. Activate a user by going to Start->All Programs->CopSSH->1. Activate a User. Select the user you just setup in step 2.
4. Type in and confirm a passphrase (make sure you remember this). Then click activate.
5. Now you need to allow an port exception through your Windows Firewall. Standard SSH port is port 22, so that's what I used. You can do this by going to your control panel, selecting Windows Firewall, and click "allow a program through Windows Firewall."
6. Select Add port...name it SSH and enter port 22.
7. Click change scope...and make sure the radio button that says "Any computer (including those on the Internet) is selected. Click OK.
8. Now we need to setup port-forwarding to your router. To do this you need to know how to access your router, your WAN IP address, and your LAN IP Address assigned by your router.
9. To find out your LAN IP address, open a command prompt and type in "ipconfig -all". Typically, it will begin with 192.168 unless you have modified your LAN settings. To find your WAN IP address settings, google "what is my IP address?" There are a number of sites that can tell you that.
10. To access your router, you need to find it's IP address, which is usually 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1; you will know by entering one of those addresses in your browser and it will prompt you for your login info. If you don't know your user name and password, I can't help you there but Google may be able to (try to look-up the default username and password for your router model).
11. Once logged in, find your "virtual server" or "port forwarding" settings, specify port 22 - 22 for the start and end range, and route it to the LAN IP address you found in step 9. Save your settings and exit your browser.
12. If you've made it this far, your SSH service and port forwarding settings are done; now you just need to log into it. Download SSH Tunnel from the Google Play Store.
13. When you open it up, it will ask you for a number of settings. I have listed them below and what you need to enter in each textbox:
- Host Name: Enter your WAN IP address that you discovered in step 9.
- Port: Enter "22"
- Username: Enter your username you specified in CopSSH
- Password: Enter your password you specified in CopSSH
14. Make sure the following options are checked:
- Use socks proxy
- Global proxy
15. That's it! Now scroll to the top of the app and check the first checkbox labeled "tunnel switch" and it should connect you.
Please keep in mind that you need to be logged into a wifi connection, but it doesn't have to be your home wifi connection!
DON'T forget the thanks button!
Lkrfn5283:Thank you for this post. I'm unsure what i'm doing wrong but i went over the instructions and made sure i did everything correctly, but it keeps saying "error: cannot connect to host" I'm using a tmobile galaxy note with a stock rooted ics rom. This write up should apply to any phone with an ics based rooted rom correct? any help would greatly be appreciated as i'm completely lost on what i did wrong.
*note: on step 11 it shows two areas where you can enter the IP address and start port/end port. One is labeled "internal" and the other is labeled "external". On the internal i input my WAN IP and ports starting and ending in 22. On the external I input the remote address and the local port/remote port as the starting and ending ports given by the sshtunnel app.
