If people still have trouble with the 80072F0D error try this.

On the server, goto DOS prompt: locate C:\program files\IIS Resources\SelfSSL\

Run the following command (selfssl.exe /? shows help) : selfssl.exe /k:1024 /v:1825 /s:1 /p:443 /n:CN=mail.domain.com

1825 days is valid for 5 years!

Then export the cert. from the IIS MMC, standard website, properties, directory security, show cert., tab details, copy to file, next, no, choose DER (.cer file). Copy the file to PDA and doubleclick in explorer(on PDA) so it will be imported.

All should work again.

one thing to note with Starfield certificates – you’ll need to export 3 cer files: the site, the intermediate and the root
1. follow the above directions to get your site cert.
2. click the “Certification Path” tab and select the intermediate certificate – in the tree structure, it’s the one just above your site (i.e. the parent). use the above directions to export the cer file
3. still in the “Certification Path” tab, select the root certificate – in the tree structure it’s the next one up (i.e. the grandparent). use the above directions to export the cer file.

Windows mobile 5 and above may already have the root certificate from Starfield… so really the trick is to get the site cert AND the intermediate cert.

I’m also having the same issue. What is the “domain” cert mentioned above?

Did the steps above, but still not working. How important is it to have both certificates (from the browser and from the server installed on your device. We all sync OTA, not via USB, but all get the same notification.
Supplier does not come with answers. Please help!!

Finally got my Orange M600 to do the active synch dance. Mucho thanks to all!

Had to get the root certificate (in DER format) exported from my Domain controller not just the one that is displayed by Iexplorer when browsing the OWA pages. After I got both certs installed onto the phone, I could browse to OWA on the phone without any cert prompt and active sync works beautifully!!

I am having the same problem as above. I exported the cert and installed it on my treo700 and I still get the 80072F0D certificate error. I’ve tried everything I can find and nothing seems to work.

I am connecting via USB on my laptop.

Any other suggestions…
Thanks
