I have an application written by someone else in Vb.Net running under Pocket PC 2002 that needs to conect to a server via TCP/IP, it normally runs on Pocket PC's that have network connectivity built in. This one particular Pocket PC an IPAQ 3765 (a little older I know) does not have any network cards or wireless connection ability it only has the cradle and ActiveSync. It appears the software will function partially if connections are made with machine names instead of IP address. But the software has been written to require IP address for all of it's functions, and the PPC will not connect with the IP address. So I guess my question is, is there some reason that a PPC will not connect via IP if networked via ActiveSync, when it will connect via machine name.
Thanks,
Gary

Does this happen only on a PPC 2002 device or does it happen on later devices too when Active Sync'ed I don't believe there are any limitations like this using active sync and you should be able to use Desktop passthrough in either the IP address or machine name.
Thanks,
