Disable Snow Leopard Client Access
Does anyone know if access toExchangefrom the Mac Snow Leopard client can be disabled. We are concerned that many of our users whom have a Mac at homeand have installed Snow Leopard are going to start connecting the client to our Exchange server. From a compliance standpoint we don't want any of our corporate data living on client systems that we have no control over.Thanks.

Snow Leopard uses Web Services to connect to Exchange, so you could probably disable the EWS virtual directory via the firewall. This is, of course, assuming that you allow OWA, ActiveSync, or EWS through your firewall in the first place. If you have such tight policies in place in the first place, you have probably already blocked them.Jim McBee - Blog - http://mostlyexchange.blogspot.com

Hi,I note that with Snow Leopard, the Mac has out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, something even Windows PCs don't have. Since I am not the expert on Mac area. I recommend you to contact MAC support to disable the feature. http://www.apple.com/macosx/exchange/Category : Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=263Regards,Xiu
