Great News on Certificates in Windows Mobile 6
Via; The Windows Mobile Team Blog
From the WM Team’s blog article on this subject:
As faithful blog readers already know, there were several limitations related to certificates that caused tons of customer pain on WM5. Now that WM6 is public, it gives me great pleasure to announce the following changes that we made in WM6:
- Certificate Installer built into the platform
- Installs CER, P7B, and PFX files
- No more Access Denied messages.
- Installs certs to the ROOT, Intermediate, and MY store
Wildcard Certificate support for SSL The Intermediate (“CA”) store shows up in the control panel now Even more root certs installed by default Delete will work from the control panel on any user-installed certs
This is one of the best pieces of news I’ve seen relating to Windows Mobile 6 – especially for all those who want / need direct push email within personal or business situations.
Certificate problems have been quite probably the most common source of *big* aggravating problems when rolling out new WM5 devices and getting push mail working.
The above changes should make certificate handling MUCH, much better under WM6. Good job MS for listening on this key topic.
