Is there a was to disable OMA and active sync on the exchange server but
still allow mobile devices to sync their email connected to their pc. A usb
cable would be used.

Thank you

Yes. Disable OMA and ActiveSync for all users. Connect the mobile device
to the PC with a cable and configure ActiveSync there. The server won't
know anything about it.

Seriously, Server ActiveSync is way cool. I don't understand why you'd be
prohibiting it.
