Has anyone seen a remote desktop protocol client for android? I would like to not have to carry my laptop all together, like I did on WM6.1. I got ConnectBot but it's not but it seems to be more of a telnet type client.
Thanks,

Logmein.com has a basic HTML client but it is PAINFUL to use.
I would like a native LMI.com client, I'd pay for it... the keyboard, big screen, trackball, touch screen, 3G, blah blah blah makes it a perfect platform for a good remote client. LMI is great because I don't have to worry about messing with firewall settings/DDNS services, it just works.

the remote desktop client on my vario ii connects to my work desktop perfectly using our office vpn but it is rubbish! the screen doesn't scale well at all or provide any kind of zoom out function.
I have a vnc client which performs much better but it won't connect over the vpn it only works when connected directly to the office network.
forwarding ports is out of the question. so my question is this.
is there a vnc client for pocket pc which will work over vpn or is there a way to make the remote desktop client less rubbish
also are there any apps out there that will let me browse my work network over the vpn. resco doesn't seem to be able to do it even the ftp client won't work.
am I missing something about vpn connections as it seems the only two apps that work over one are activesync and the remote desktop client.
Did you tried to acces domain controler throught the VPN? If yes it is normal that it doesn't work; Domain controler require security enhancement in auth that pocket devices cannot deliver yet. The only way I know is to reduce the security enhancement by using the GPO on the concerned servers; but this is far of being a clean fix.
Just trying to use connect to a vnc server on my workstation. btw our domain controller is the exchange server and active sync works fine
Active sync & exchange do not use the integrate authentification & kerberos; it uses a plain text auth (crypted with the SSL certs), that's why it works. Even if you are on the LAN you will not be able to access your domain's controller shares because of security enhancement.
This is far from solving your issue; but I just wanted to make it clear. Concerning your issue I can't help you at the moment, I still didnt tried the VPN & advanced networking.
btw, good luck
I have set up a vpn on my home computer, no domain, and can't access shares or a vnc server on that either.
Hi Stemill, I seen your other post about the vpn issues with Resco also, I have heard in the past about vpn issues using the [email protected], are you using [email protected] or [email protected]?
I use the terminal/remote client on a daily basis, and it does blow, vj on the board here has made an app that allows fullscreen with the terminal client, and theres a Mocha remote desktop client that supports scaling but no fullscreen, both of which have their own quirks. The scaling makes the text impossible to read when its even at 25%
I have been working on connecting to the remote desktop on mac with vnc, and I've gotten as far as an error on authentification, so I know its possible outside of a home network, but I don't have a clue about buisness situations..exchange or vpn's.
I not even 100% positive about the wap issue, I just seem to remember reading something about it in the past.
Sorry I wasn't of much help, also I kind of have a question for you, I see you mention activesync, you're not activesyncing over an internet connection are you?, I'm working on installing apps that I don't have a .cab for over an internet connection, but the best route I had figured out was to install to a ftp share and then grab the .cab from there with Resco.
Best of luck to you.
Hi there.
I'm on t-mob in the uk. They have a 3g network with full internet access so i'm not using wap at all.
Thanks for the tips about the remote client tweaks. Do you have a link?
I'm using activesync to connect to my works exchange server to sync email and calendar. Pretty sure its not possible to sync over the air to a pc without using exchange. You certainly won't be able to grab remote files via activesync.
If we could figure out how to get apps to work over vpn you could set one up on your pc and (theoretically at least) browse its contents using resco without having to bother with ftp.
If it's not possible to get stuff working over the vpn then you've probably found the best solution already. use ftp or setup a webserver on your pc and host the cab files on that. pocket ie seems to let you install cab files directly from a link.
btw which vnc client are you using on your phone?
Hi, I forget a lot of the time that people here have so many different carriers, sorry.
Here's the link to vj's terminal addon app
http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJFullscreenTSC
And here's the link to the Mocha remote client app
http://www.mochasoft.dk/rd.htm
I used .Net vnc when I was able to get the authentification error
http://www.freewareppc.com/docs/netvncviewer.shtml
I think my problem on the authentification was with the apple remote desktop itself, I read about somethin in the authentification being non standard and sometimes the free vnc viewers don't work..but that was also pc to pc related, the same makers of the Mocha remote desktop also make a vnc client..that was gonna be my next try, I just haven't gotten there yet.
I inistally set up my pc to be able to remote to it from my phone and access aol chatrooms..well mainly one I have hung out in for years, then realized if I set up a server, I could install apps that I couldn't find in .cab form over the net with it, I used to have windows server 2003 set up with IIS(webserver) and the streaming media services, I'm wondering now if the windows streaming media really works with the pocket windows media, and if I could even use it with my gprs/edge connection, I'm still waiting on 3G, suprisingly the remote desktop isn't too bad on gprs/edge.
I'm currently waiting to get a new hard drive before I can really get to work, I'm testing on an old messed up xp install, and half the time I can't even access "my computer" or open folders without it crashin explorer.
Ideally, I'd like some kind of muck/mush/mud client for play on the go, but simple telnet will do the job if it has to.
I have a Cingular 8525 WM5 device.
I've tried various incarnations of freebies from around the net with no success, and I've never made an internet telnet connection that works. Given telnet protocol is one of the fundamentals of TCP/IP I was frankly staggered that there was no telnet/ssh client on the machine to begin with...
Can anyone suggest a working client?

http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...glish&platformId=2&N=96806 4294959655&R=13383
for landscape i might stick to pockettty instead. then i can use keyboard.
Can someone tell me how is get this app to work?
Can't connect to my PC at all.
Cheers!
Hmm. I'll get back to you on this. I knew how to do this before lol. I just use LogMeIn now (Logmein.com)
i use"real VNC" it's very easy to handle and works good....
Imma try to get "real VNC" to work, thanks!
Still hope to hea from you soon Kraize92
EDIT: Uh, is there a specific VNC for WM6? Cause now I only got it on XP .. how do i get a VNC viewer on my Diamond?
Cheers!
http://www.realvnc.com/products/beta/ce/
DotNet VNC is an excellent viewer for WM5/6. One single (tiny) exe, no install, fully functional:
http://dotnetvnc.sourceforge.net/
I'm using the beta 1.0.1.17 with no problems. Just note that when you click connect, the window will disappear momentarily as it connects to your host/vnc server.
RDP--you must disable proxy..
Microsoft RDP requires the proxy be disabled, at least for the AT&T network version.. There is access in the settings menu to enable/disable the proxy.
I can remote control my servers over the Internet through my firewall just fine, using Server 2003 RRAS as my RDP server. Should be the same for MS Small Business Server 2003.
(Note:the AT&T proxy filters out the GRE packet type needed for MS version of RDP).
You might need to re-enable the proxy for normal Web surfing..
hi all, forgive my ignorance but I would like to use my hd 2 to remotely access my home computer while out. I see the hd2 comes with remote desktop software but from what I can tell it can only be used to control computers on a lan, i.e. I'd need to be in the same domain anyway. is this correct?
z2 remote to pc is a decent piece of software ive used in the past, how well does it work on the hd2? would this new the nearest software to my needs?
tia!
its like the desktop version. it can work over the internet aswell.
Thanks - from what I've read it also supports pinch-to-zoom which is fantastic.
The only thing that concerns me is just how secure Remote Desktop is on the client side (WinXP). I guess a lot of it is down to the user to secure things, I found a decent guide here on how to minimise brute force attacks.
What appealed to me about z2 remote pc from a security point of view is that it required its own usernames/passwords to be set up as opposed to using actual Windows users and supported up to 256bit AES encryption, good stuff!
I figure I'll try both again and see how they perform.

Remote desktop from Microsoft is extremely safe to use...
For one, it uses 128-bit encryption (RC4), you login using the same login mechanisms as the windows machine... and no user with blank password or not-admin can login, so you don't suffer from that, either...
Hi guys,
You can use Logmein Hamachi Network to extend access for computers.
Go to Logmein, create an account and create a network with Hamachi.
Install Hamachi on computer do you want to connect remote, like home and work computers.
Hamachi is a VPN Network software you can use Remote Desktop Mobile to access yours computers in Hamachi Network.
There is a client for logmein Hamachi that works on HD2. Join to your Hamachi Network and use a IP Address of your computer on RDP Mobile.
The solution with Logmein Hamachi is excelent. Remote Desktop Mobile make a great job and Logmein Hamachi can connect 16 computer anywhere for free.
Try and let me know your opinion.
OK, So this isnt strictly a windows MOBILE question, but i hope people here can help me....
I'm running VNC On a server of mine.
I am trying to connect, So i can run and administer commands on my DHD, (When i unwrap it in 2 days) So i can administer things etc..
Also wow friends by wow'ing on a 4" Mobile ;P
Anyway, here is my configuration;
http://cl.ly/0v3w1C0s0f062r1p3C3I
http://cl.ly/3q0K2J2t2x240V2E190V
I have tried the java web client 5800) and Chicken of the VNC (mac) and only the web viewer on a windows XP pc.
The only thing i can think of is that the server i set up by RDP, and still prefer to use RDP to do that sort of thing.
Any ideas on how to fix it?
Anyone, Come on! :S
