Low Cost SSL Provider That Windows Mobile 5 Will Recognise
Nov 3, 2007
I have experimented with the Startcom free SSL certificates but would now like to install a low cost certificate on an Outlook Web Access server that Windows Mobile 5 devices will trust without having to load stuff onto each device.
I have a Windows Mobile 6 (Blackjack II) phone that I am connecting to my cpanel VPS via Pop3.
I have a number of pop3 accounts setup to check for email every 30 minutes. However, every couple days the phone stops downloading mail and if I do a manual send and receive I get a "The Server Certificate is not valid. Continue Anyway?" with a yes/no. If I click yes, the email downloads and then the automated emails will work for several days and then the process is repeated.
Does anyone know how to either disable this check on the phone (no luck finding that yet), or to install the certificate from the cpanel mail server to the phone?
I received an error message "Error: Failed to remove mobile site: Can't delete a site that's not active " when try to remove a mobile website in Plesk control panel and if i try to edit site content i received another error message "Can't access a site that's not active" from [URL] ....
These notification messages are originating from UNITY Mobile platform. The reason is actually hinted in the messages themselves - both the site and the editor account have been already disabled and there are no handlers anymore to modify their status further, so the messages are correct from UNITY Mobile platform's standpoint.
It appears that Plesk control panel has somehow retained in its configuration information about the site availability and is giving the plesk control panel the option to configure the mobile site despite the fact that UNITY Mobile platform is returning "deleted" status back to Plesk. Plesk should be given an option to create a new site instead now.
I would like to know how to manage Plesk in this situation.
Due to some recent negative experiences, one of my customers had to cancel their account with IBackup.com's Pro services. It had provided exceptional reliability and did Windows backup of the System State, Exchange Server, SQL, and provided file versions going 30 back. But I couldn't get anywhere with technical support for 2 weeks on why it would freeze during the backups. The final straw came when I installed it to a brand new server and had the same issues.
I'm looking for a suggestion on a provider that does at least file-level backups and Exchange backups. I've looked around online, read reviews, but it doesn't look like the providers do Exchange backup. I don't need mailbox-level backup, just brick-level for disaster recovery. File versions going back (in case a user makes a mistake and wants to restore an old copy) would be nice, but not required.
- Found great price for a full-cab in California - They only provide power/cabinet and network drop
Now, I need Windows and Plesk licenses. I know Plesk doesn't allow resellers/external licenses. I am still waiting for a response from the message I left at their voicemail TWO WEEKS ago.
Now most importantly, is there any options I have for windows licenss? another option besides paying $800~ for them at newegg?
Is there a way to restart IIS via the Plesk 11.5 service provider panel (windows 2008 server with no root access).
I am trying to setup custom error pages and the documentation says to restart IIS after you make the change. At i dont have root access i currently have to ring Webfusion and ask them to do it
I have SSL enabled site on IIS.I want to access it from my PocketPC(Win mobile).But when I try access it, I have been prompted to install a certificate.
Unlike when I try to any HTTPS site (Banking sites) I have never been prompted to install any certificate.
Why am I being prompted with security message with "Yes,No,View certificate" options on it every time I try to access my own server(desktop) via my WIN mobile using active sync. Unlike When I try to access banking site(https) I was never ever prompted a mesage like above.
How to have same functionality for my application also?
to launch a web/mobile app that requires the users to choose a hosting plan with their account. I was hoping to allow them to choose from 1GB / 5GB and 10GB plans.
I'm curious to know the best place to host such a service, and how it's possible to sell the space so cheap. For example [url]- They seem quite inexpensive for the storage you get.
Would[url]pricing be the best option or is there anywhere better?
i have read somewhere you can logon to your server via ssh on your mobile phone. Anyone know what software is needed and how to do this? I'm off on holiday at some point and i could do with an emergency backup plan! I use a Sony ericcson p900 (oldschool i know!)
My 2nd question is:
What enables/disdabled php to access files outside of root? On my current vps, i can't include files like using ../ or full paths to files/folders outside of the public web folder.
can i configure .htaccess to direct browsers to a different css file based upon their browser type?
That's the short question. The longer question is: how do I set up my .htaccess file to call a different css file based on mobile browsers?
All I want to do create a 2nd version of a css file so that my site's content, when viewed on a mobile browser, calls /mobi/style.css instead of /style.css.
I have the rewritecond statement for all the mobile browsers, and in fact I presently direct all mobile browser traffic to a designated static webpage, which you can see at tastyplacement . com which directs to tastyplacement . com/mobi.
But if I could simply call a different css file, I could have the pages load as they normally would but with a different css file and thus an entirely different look for the website (narrower columns, no header navigation, ie., a stripped down version of the site with the main text intact).
I am interested if anybody knows who provides mobile satellite internet access?I would like to access the internet from anywhere in the world?. What are the costs? Do they have different speed plans?
My question is, are the visitors a day accurate - which I take to be uniques. It seems these must be pretty far off.
Presently they show an extremely high multiple of that for pages/s (approx 30 -50 times the visitors). I've never heard of visitors clicking this many pages.
I've not come across these kind of number with other non-mobile sites and it makes wonder if its right.
A) is tracking handled in the same way on mobile devices as on desktops (cookies or sessions?) And is this reliable for mobile/handheld/cell-phone devices?
B) There really isn't much of a chance of these page views being a result of bookmarks - the page views don't seem to add up to this.
The 'Browser Top 10' hits coming from 'unknown' are > 50% of the total amount.
Are there any quirks with awstats or other tracking software when it comes to mobile devices, even though the activity is taking place on the server? I take it Urchin may be more accurate?
We have a customer requirement to enable Direct Push email on our Outlook Web Access servers to a number of mobile devices the customer will be supplied from Vodafone - running Windows Mobile 5
Therefore we need to create a public HTTPS address to allow access to the OWA/OMA part.
We do NOT (at this stage) want to allow general access to OWA over HTTPS (we have an eGap solution with RSA for this) so we need to be able to lock down access to the OWA server only to specific devices. One way would be to use Firewall Rules at the Outer DMZ and lock down by the IP ranges of the phone but thats prohibitive to other devices and will fail when the phones change IP (i.e. international roaming)
Therefore Im wondering if we can use self signed SSL certs where there is no trusted CA provider (if there was all browsers would simply be prompted to trust the source and then get access). If we use our own self signed certs and have them installed on the client devices would this work? What would be the downsides (i.e. less cryptogrpahy without the CA part?)
As we are planning to implement Mobile for our platform, we want to distinguish between request coming from Mobile and Web in Apache. We will be using Apache for Reverse Proxy and we want it to differentiate the request source and forward it to required destination.Is this possible ?
We have an established site for which we want to add a 'mobile-appropriate' subdomain geared to phone surfers.
Our host (1and1) confirms their servers detect mobile visitors but they couldn't help me with how to read the server flag(?) or whatever and then redirect the server to our mobile subdomain when appropriate.
Can anyone point to an appropriate how2? (Note I don't need "mobile code" help help - just help with how to redirect mobile visitors transparently off our main site and into its mobile subdomain).
Has anyone tried any online backup services which gives mobile access also. I have been thinking about trying one. But I'm not sure if any are better than others. My main concern is security.
Can anybody recommend a free or paid webmail application which can be used on a mobile (specifically a blackberry 8100). I need a way to access my emails via a webpage... I can't have all emails forwarded to my phone, as there are way to many. As there are a fair few emails in my inbox the application would need to be able to handle a large number of emails.
My current hosting company - hostmysite.com - offers two Windows (IIS) hosting plans, that are almost identical except that one supports ASP.NET and the other only supports old-fashioned ASP, but not ASP.NET. The former is $20/month and the latter is $12/month.
Why would adding support for .NET increase the price by 67%? I run IIS on my network here and it's not obvious to me why .NET per-se increases cost, server loads, etc, by anything like that.
I have developed a forum. I don't want it to be dependent on any commercial interest, so I want to at least look into how much it will cost to set up and become my own host.
One of my clients just asked me if $4.50 per GB of transfer is a lot (as they just found out that's what their web host is charging them). I told them yes, because that seems ridiculously high to me, but I'd like to give them a ballpark figure for what that should cost. I can't find any hosts that charge per GB of transfer though. Any ideas what that should cost?
I own a few servers and looking to buy CPanel license. I place I could find is $43 /month, but I see many providers are offering it at a much lower price. What is the cheapest price I can get one and where can I get those?
Whats about the going monthly rate on a 10gbit commit from the various providers (OC-192)? I realize there is a regional difference, I'm just ball parking.
