Blackberry Enterprise Server 10 in place
Windows 2008R2 Active Directory Server LDAPS enabled
I would like to setup the BES10 to retrieve the Public keys from the ADDS through LDAPS for the S-MIME.
With LDAP it works, but when trying to use LDAPS it doesn't work.
Is there somebody knowing if it is supported and if so what I can look at to make it work?
I nowhere find the specifications how to or the requirements.

I am currently developing a Ruby/Rails app that will be used in-house as a sort of Enterprise application to support our business.
Our company uses Quickbooks Online to do almost all of our accounting, most importantly for invoicing.
I am looking for a way to automatically generate invoices from our Rails app into Quickbooks, as well as be able to pull customer balances and some other "basic" information into the Rails app to display on a customer information screen.
I have done a lot of research on the topic, and have yet to find an acceptable solution to what we're trying to accomplish.
Quickbooks Web Connector - Not applicable since are not running Quickbooks Pro
Intuit Anywhere app - The app we are using is certainly not a SaaS App, as it is specifically designed for our business, and the only Quickbooks file/account it will ever see is our own
Quickbooks Online/qbXML Gateway application - This seems to be the best fit
So I have spent considerable time with Keith Palmer's Consolibytes wiki, and Intuit's Official Documentation (which is great to get started, but doesn't really provide much help for the details), and have been unable to even link my application to quickbooks using the https://qbo.intuit.com/redir/addsdkapp?appid=YOUR-ID-HERE&appreferer=&appdata=1 link.
My server does have a GoDaddy generated SSL certificate, and I have visited the connection callback URL and have confirmed that everything is in working order there. However, I keep getting a "Failed to notify third party application about this connection" error. There is no evidence of a request from QB to my server in any of my logs.
So what I'm getting at here is this:
Is what I'm trying to do possible and/or practical?
Am I going the right way about it?
I'd really love to find someone out there who has done something like this before and maybe shed some light on the whole process.
Thanks!

Yes.

Almost. :-)
From what you posted:

It sounds like you registered in HOSTED mode.
Unfortunately, the Intuit servers don't consider GoDaddy certificates valid, and thus won't be able to HTTP POST your connection ticket to those servers. That's why you're seeing this:
Failed to notify third party application about this connection
Additionally, I believe they do reverse DNS checks, which will most likely fail because GoDaddy generally doesn't set up rDNS entries.
The solution is:
Do not register in HOSTED mode
Instead, register in DESKTOP mode.
Once you've registered, use this URL to register get your connection ticket:
https://login.quickbooks.com/j/qbn/sdkapp/confirm?appid=YOUR-APPLICATION-ID-HERE&serviceid=2004&appdata=1
(make sure to plug your actual application ID into the URL)
Instead of Intuit HTTP POSTing the connection ticket to you, the connection ticket will be displayed and you can copy/paste it. From there on in, it's as simple as HTTP POSTing additional HTTP requests to Intuit's servers.
Sample XML requests can be found on our QuickBooks integration wiki - make sure you use the DESKTOP mode examples.
Hope that helps clear things up!
I want to fetch real-time data from my Quickbooks Online edition's (India) account to display customer details like Open Balance, address etc. on my PHP website.
What is the best way to go about fetching data from Quickbooks Online Edition -
Do I follow the instructions in http://wiki.consolibyte.com/wiki/doku.php/quickbooks_online_edition#connecting_with_the_hosted_model_of_communication ? But this requires a website with SSL certificate.
Do I create a Intuit Anywhere app ( https://ipp.developer.intuit.com/0010_Intuit_Partner_Platform/0025_Intuit_Anywhere/1000_Getting_Started_With_IA ) and then use IDS (Intuit Data Services) to fetch the required data using the API?
Can I use the PHP devkit ( https://code.intuit.com/sf/frs/do/viewSummary/projects.php_devkit/frs ) and feed my credentials directly to the code and access my Quickbooks account's data?
Do I use qbXML (which however does not seem to be the recommended method)?
Or is there a better solution?
Thanks in advance.
First, a disclaimer - if you're using the India version of QuickBooks Online (http://www.quickbooksonline.in/) you'll likely find that nothing works at all. Currently, Intuit does not officially support ANY non-US version of QuickBooks Online (QuickBooks for Windows non-US is supported via qbXML) for integration, regardless of which method you go with. It might work... but I doubt it.
With that said... generally speaking:
If you're building a SaaS application and trying to allow your
end-users to connect their QuickBooks accounts to your app, use
Intuit Anywhere.
Otherwise, if it's a custom/one-off/internal application, and you hate your life, use HOSTED mode via https://appreg.intuit.com and the HOSTED instructions on our QuickBooks integration wiki (HOSTED mode is notoriously unreliable and difficult to get going due to reverse DNS checks, a very specific certificate format, lack of working example code, bugs on Intuit's end, some serious nasty-ness hooking the certificate up to your .NET HTTPS request, etc.).
Otherwise, if it's a custom/one-off/internal application, and you DON'T hate your life, use DESKTOP mode via https://appreg.intuit.com and the DESKTOP instructions on our QuickBooks integration wiki.
None of the APIs allow you to just pass your credentials in and get access - you'll always have some sort of API token to deal with (a "connection ticket" for qbXML, or OAuth for Intuit Anywhere).
If you build for Intuit Anywhere, you'll use IDS XML. Otherwise, you'll use qbXML.
On my development machine (which has the Quickbooks SDK installed) I can connect and interact with QB just fine; the standard workflow of granting access to the external app from w/i QB works. However, on my production machine I get various and sundry errors:
Can't start QB.
Can't start QB because it's already running.
Can't open more than one company file.
The dev docs lead you to believe that the app must be signed while elsewhere I've found examples where you could run an un-signed example app. So what is it? If signing isn't strictly required then any clues as to why I can't get this to work?
Production Machine
QuickBooks Pro 2011 Release R9P (US)
Our installed, OOB, Silverlight app
Dev Machine
Quickbooks Premier Contractor Edition 2010 Release R13P (US)
Silverlight 4 using COM/C# to connect to QB
Quickbooks SDK 11.0
As I've said, the dev machine works as it should. On the production machine we've tried every combo of not having QB open, having it open but no client file open, having it open and a client file open and we'll get one error or another right at the point we're trying to open a connection. Also, our app never shows up in the integrated applications settings page (but it does show up on the dev machine's QB). We've tried both admin and non admin.
No, you DO NOT need to sign your apps.
You didn't provide anywhere near enough information for us to really give you a solution.
Did you check your SDK logs?
What version/year/edition/country of QuickBooks?
Are you building for the Web Connector, or using C#, or VB .NET, or...?
If you're using the Web Connector, what do your Web Connector logs look like?
Are you logged in as the QuickBooks admin user?
Is QuickBooks already running?
Is there another QuickBooks company file already open?
Did you revoke permission from the integrated application?
If you expect answers, you have to post some details.
It's a Silverlight app with full trust. It looks as though it was something with SL itself. Once we upgraded to SL5 it worked fine.
Is there any way to perform SSL Client(Mutual) Authentication on a BlackBerry phone? the closest thing I have found is the TLS10Connection/SSL30Connection, but I havent found any way to set any options to do anything, let alone pass it a certificate and use client authentication.
Since BlackBerry (as far as I know) does not have JNI I cant compile openssl and use it...maybe there is a Java ssl library I could include in my BlackBerry project but I dont know of one.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks
My Blackberry application is connecting to a web server via HTTPS.
However, The SSL certificate of the server is invalid.
I would like to know how to ignore the ssl error on my Blackberry application?
I knew with Android you could overwirte the onReceivedSslError method of Android's api to over come this problem. I don't know if there is some way to do it on Blackberry.
Thanks in advance!
I know of several BlackBerry developers who have expressed concerns over this issue.
While the user can adjust her device security settings to not be notified of SSL certificate issues, there doesn't seem to be a way of doing this programmatically from either inside your application through API, nor through some sort of declaration in the application's .jad file.
Based on the documentation here http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/7.1.0api/javax/microedition/io/Connector.html#tls, I just add ";EndToEndDesired" to the connection string. And it works! :)
