Forgot to add for Mark, If you're using the BB Browser and trying to access internal web sites that require authentication, You can enable that under the MDS Settings -> HTTP -> Authentication Support Enabled = TRUE

I don't know how to enable Authentication for that browser @Mark When you browse the internet using the Internet Browser, it uses your carrier's internet connection - Kind of like having a public IP When using Blackberry Browser, the traffic all gets funneled through your BES (MDS) and goes out your corporate internet. So assuming you allow internet traffic through you corporate internet, a BB user can get to the public internet from either browser.

Every time we configure the phones with BlackBerry Browser, users are getting 403's and 402's. So let me guess, we are having issues with MDS then? ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mendoza.Ronald Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2010 9:19 AM To: A list for BES Admin's to discuss issues,etc. Subject: Re: [Bes-admins] HTTP 401 Errors AFAIK, intranet access is only available via the BlackBerry Browser. The Internet Browser comes in from the Internet, while the BlackBerry Browser is accessing your network via the BES itself. ________________________________ Ron Mendoza Windows Server Management Section Lead State of California From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeff Peters Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2010 8:22 AM To: A list for BES Admin's to discuss issues, etc. Subject: [Bes-admins] HTTP 401 Errors I'm trying to get users to access our intranet (sharepoint) from outside and they're getting the 401 Unauthorized using the internet browser.. I've enabled Authentication =True for MDS for the blackberry browser, but how do I enable it for Internet Browser? I'd use the Blackberry Browser but they get an HTTP 500 when they try it from the inside.. Any help is appreciated!
