Posted this on another forum so if you've already seen this over there, my apologies and your help was appreciated.
I'm trying to connect to my work email using the Exchange ActiveSync account on my Thunderbolt. To access my exchange remotely (via pc) i go to:
https://webmail.<company name>.com
my username is : <my domain>\<username used to log onto my machine>
my password is : the password i use to log onto my machine
moving to my TB I tried to let the settings auto detect first byjust putting in my email address and password but got an error message that it is unable to connect to the exchange server. So on the screen where you manually put in information i tried the following:
email address: my work email address
server address: webmailx.<company name>.com
domain: left this blank and tried w/ my domain that precedes my username
username: <domain name>\username (same as what is used on the pc) - tried both with and without the domain
password: the password i use to log onto my machine
before i used the above server address i would get an error stating that the exchange server could not be found and to check the settings. Once i put in the above i get an error stating that authentication failed and to verify my username and password. I've tried every combination possible that i can think of between my domain, email address, username etc.
Any and all help and suggestions here are greatly appreciated!
edit: i've tried using Touchdown with no luck on the above settings either.

I made a VPN connection on my hermes(with the same settings that I used on my PC). but everytime i tried to connect to it over wifi it gives me the username and password error.
VPN settings :
IP : 209.51.194.210
VPN type : PPTP
Can anyone help me to fix this problem?
I can't give you an answer to your problem but I'd probably not post you IP and VPN type on the internet!!!
as long as i dont post my username and password, I'll be safe.
Has anyone with a HTC Mozart or another Windows Phone 7 device been able to install a self-signed SSL exchange server certificate? I have tried emailing the root certificate to myself and installing it, but even after a power cycle it still produces an error
I emailed one to myself and installed it. I then had to turn the phone off and on again for it to take effect though.
I haven't had to, it seems to 'grab' it from the server like the iPhones do and just ask you to accept it. (This was a self signed cert on a 2008 Server with Exchange 2007)
I followed the intruction on the page below and did a power reset afterwards, worked OK for me.
Doh! as a new user to xda I can't post a link but thtext from the pages reads:
i had the same Problem, and now i have a solution
Have you a Root CA Certificate of you’re Domain, so go first to you're locale Client (PC, Laptop) then open the mmc and load the snap-in for Certificates, select Local computer;
- on Trusted Root Certification Authorities - Certificates
-Searche youre RootCA Certificate
- then export this Certificate as a DER-coded-binary X.509 (CER) on you're local Computer
- Search the Certificate and send it via Mail (another Mail-account Hotmail for example) to you're WP7
- Sync the Mail Box and open the attachment
- install this Certificate
- now test you're Sync with the EAS Account
it should be working, be happy and have fun

I have a homeGroup setup which I can share stuff among different PCs. I want to access share folders from android. I tried using ES file explorer, It asks me for a username and password. Which username and password is it actually? I have tried entering the name of my computer, as well as "HomeGroup" as username and the homegroup password as password, but that doesnt work. My windows doesnt have a password. I have a windows 8 pc and 2 windows 10 PCs on the network.
Please advise.
Thank you
