Activesync 4.1 and SBS2000 Firewall

I have an installation with a install of 12 Windows Mobile 5 devices that when
connected to workstations on a SBS2000 network with the Microsoft Firewall
client installed do not connect successfully.

You need to disable the Firewall on the client workstation to allow the PDA
to sync up using ActiveSync. As soon as you turn back on the Firewall the
sync stops.

I have searched the net for an answer to this but have been unable to find
one that identifies the Firewall that comes with SBS2000. There is an
article on general settings with ActiveSync 4.1 at
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/acti...shoot-as4x.htm , but it does not
help.

Can you please provide me with settings needed to change to allows
ActiveSync 4.1 to function through the Firewall.

Thanks,

Shaun

Hi,
It has to do with ISA Server running on the SBS 2000 server. I haven't had
time to test with SBS 2003 which I'm running.
