Live@Edu - anyone got it working?

[mwbutler]

I cannot and it seems that the SWGFL firewall is blocking something, and rather irritatingly they are refusing to help us fix the problem unless we pay for an expensive support contract for a free service. Just brilliant!

 

Has anyone managed to get this working? If so how?

 

Here's a few threads on the issue:

Hello Matt,

 

Unfortunately there's not much on here about EasySync, I'm currently evaluating the product using some test accounts. What cant you get working?

 

The only issue I had was connecting to Live@Edu Servers via ps.outlook.com - My solution for this was CMD prompt

 

> netsh winhttp reset

> netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie

 

Depending on wether or not you want to use your IE proxy settings.

 

Apart from that it seems to work and Sync passwords to the Edu service, Few glitches with Dynamic Distribution groups not appearing in the Admin side of Live.

 

Hope this helps,

 

Regards
