• Install Software

• • Logoff and logon as BESadmin locally, you can do this through RDP , but you will need to add Besadmin as domain Admin for the right permissions
  Install the BES software, normally you just install BlackBerry Enterprise Server as most sites don’t use the MDS services (MDS is a much heavier install). Follow the prompts of the install and the server will be required to restart half way through the install. Restart the server and log back on as BESadmin and the install will continue. (Make sure the Connect Test works and the SRP ID etc is validated during the install)

Task 4: Assign Users
1. Within Blackberry Manager click on you server name in the left column and then the users TAB in the centre section, just add a user and the click on that user. You will see all the users? properties and a drop down menu called Service Access? and select ?Set Activation Password? and set a password of ?a? for example.

2. Turn on you BlackBerry device and ensure Wireless is enabled. Go into ?Options/Settings? and ?Time & Date? and set the correct zone and time etc. Then from the home screen go to enterprise activation and enter the users email address and enter the password that was set in step 1. Press the track wheel and select Activate. Within a minute you should get data returned which indicates the process is functioning correct.
