What version of z-push have you installed? You can not use the latest 1.3 stuff.
You need at least a post-42.2009 N900 firmware. Current firmware is 3.2010.02-8

if you want to use https you have to fight with nokias certification set-up and there are some really long threads on maemo.org about this ;-)
Please use for a first try port 80 and http without certs. You can also use openvpn to secure your client server connection. The N900 has strong openvpn support.

For the first shot use Port 80 and only sync the calendar. Next step are contacts. Then you have everything kolabbackend supports so far and you can play with https and certs :-)
