Activesync and OWA issue on SBS2008
One of my clients has an SBS2008 server and use Nokia mobiles to connect to their exchange accounts.
This has been working fine for the past couple of years, but after a server reboot last month it isn't working. The Nokia's are just coming up with a certificate error, not giving me a chance to install a new certificate or ignore it.
I have run https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/ and it fails here:
Testing HTTP Authentication Methods for URL
https://remote.companyname.co.uk/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync/.
The HTTP authentication test failed.
Tell me more about this issue and how to resolve it
Additional Details
The Initial Anonymous HTTPS request didn't fail, but Anonymous isn't a supported authentication method for this scenario.
does anyone know what this means? and how to resolve it?
Also, OWA is not working, i am getting this error;
404 - File or directory not found.
or from the server:

If you look in the original post you will see that trying to access OWA brings up a 404 not found error
