My stock program works.

I bought a Droid 2 (updated to Android 2.2.20) over the weekend. I got mine to sync with the “Corporate Sync” but I the exchange server text is different. It is just mail.website.com whereas the online requires the \exchange.

I hope this helps everyone.

How to Check SSL cert/ etc.

One thing I though of that might help also. Some companies may already have a secure certificate in place, so with proper account setup on the droid, you might not have any problems connecting with the 2.2 OTA update, like the previous poster. One way to check is to log in to your exchange web access (from a computer not your phone). Ours is https://www.domainname.com/exchange . If you try to go to this location with http instead of https, it should automatically redirect you to https. Next, check the security by clicking on the lock icon (in IE8) and it says (on ours) "GoDaddy class 2 certification authority". Yours might say something different, but this at least tells you if there's a 3rd party certificate in place already or not. After purchasing and installing our certificate, I had to apply it to the /exchange directory in IIS in order for the certificate to show up when you try accessing it via the web interface on the Exchange 2003 server. That's when our droids started syncing again.

Also, I only tried this on our Droid 1's so not sure if it affects Droid X or Droid 2's.
