Do you have a static IP address?
The reverse lookup zone - is that on the Windows DNS server or on the internet? If it is on the Windows server then it is useless for Internet use.
Simon.

Hi Sembee,
Thank you for your answer.
No I dont have static IP, and I have a local domain configured in my DNS.
I was planning on creating an ALIAS CNAME entry to point to DYNDNS.
Do you think that this will work?
Thanks in advance
Nuno

Ignore the local DNS. That will not do anything for you with regards to email delivery.
Do you own your own domain? If not then I would suggest that you get hold of one so that you can configure Exchange correctly. Dynamic DNS addresses are not really a good idea for anything other than DNS. I wouldn't use one for email. It will also make things easier when you purchase an SSL certificate.
I have a guide to using Exchange with a dynamic DNS address here: http://www.amset.info/exchange/dynamicip.asp

Hi Simon,
Yes I do have a domain wich is bazartuga.com
I have allready configured the AD for the above domain. Do I have to use a local domain?
Also I have already setup an account at Dyndns, wich is bazartuga.dyndns.org and os pointing to my router.
Can you help further?
Thank you
Nuno

Did you read the article that I have posted above? That explains what you need to do DNS wise. Has nothing to do with your internal DNS system, it is the internet DNS that you need to change.
Simon.

Hello Simon,
Yes I have read :)
All I need to do is point my MX record to the Dyndns.
Regardless of my local domain.
Is this it?

That is all that you have to do. The MX record does not have to be in the same domain. You do nothing with your local DNS as the internet doesn't use that.
Simon.

Thank you Simon.
Another doubt I am having:
Should I create a new forward zone for the external domain, or can I create the MX entry on my local forward zone?

What you do with local zones it up to you. With dynamic DNS services I don't tend to bother with local zones for the dynamic DNS address because I am hiding the dynamic DNS host behind my own domain.
Simon.

Hello again Simon,
Thank you so much for your attention and help.
I have finaly configured DNS entries and Exchange in order to send and recieve email thourgh the dyndns domain (I will configure my .com domain later).
I have only one more question:
For testing purposes I am using a self generated certificate in order to encrypt comunications.
However this certificate appears OK in the exchange server and works just fine in IE, but when I copy it and install it on a Windows Mobile Device, Exchange Activesync doesnt sync and gives me the following error code: 0x80072F17.
Thank you again so much
Nuno

I don't have much luck with self generated certificates and don't tend to use them if I can avoid it. The error I think is a trust error. If you browse on the device to http:// server / oma do you get a certificate prompt? If you do then the certificate is not trusted.
Simon.

Hi Simon,
Its the weirdest thing:
I have found out that in order to use self gen certs on a Windows Mobile device you must install 2 certs: the cert to trust the CA and the intermediate cert to access the server services.
I can now navigate through the publish sites and folders without the cert warning.
However when I try to sync my device I am now getting a new error and error code:
It says that the user does not have permission to sync: 0x85010004
Can you please help me?
Thank you
Nuno

Hi Simon,
Again thank you for your answer.
Reason why I dont want to purchase a 3rd party cert is because I am just fooling arround and learning so I can afterwards configure for real the server for the .com domain and then get the certificate.
Thanks
Nuno

Dear Simon,
I am in trouble:
I have deselect the SSL requerid option from IIS in order to Sync with the device without encryption, like it was hapening before I tried the self generated certificate.
But when I try to sync it keeps giving me the no permission error: 0x85010004, and I havent messed with the authetication methods nor the virtual dirs permissions, only applied the SSL.
Can you help me?
Thank you
Nuno

The require SSL option on the virtual directory does not turn SSL support on and off. All it does is set whether you must use SSL or not. Therefore if the client has still been configured to use SSL then it will continue to try and use it.
Simon.

Hello Simon and everyone,
An update on this situation:
I have reached the conclusion that it is no an SSL issue, because it was in fact working well on OWA and any PC with the certificate.
What was wrong was the EAS (Exchange Activesync) policy that I created on EMC (Exchange Management Console).
Seems that if I activate any new feature of SP1 that requires a CAL it automaticaly says the user has no permissions.
So one question, when I buy a CAL how do I install/implement it?
Thanks in advance
Nuno
