is there a util for this ?

Hi,
Is there a App like Remote administrator for PC
for the XDA2 ?
something where i can see on my XDA2 LCD a Screen of my PC
desktop and interact with the PC from screen taps on the XDA2.
open folders, start programs, mebe even xfer files etc etc

yeah vncview.exe
works pretty much like normal vnc between 2 computers

One I use is Pocket Controller from SOTI, very good.

I use NetOp Remote Control. Super!!

why dont u just use the terminal services client that comes built in in your xdaII and remote desktops on your xp machine??
no need for 3rd party tools

Hi ArticCat, would you mind to make a step buy step explanation on that?
:?:
Thanks in advance.

This works only on Windows XP Professional, NOT on XP Home.
Works with a Wifi card and in the USB cradle, didn't test it yet with an USB BT dongle since mine is in back-order or with GPRS.
PC
- make sure you have administrative rights
- Right-click "My Computer" and choose Properties
- Choose the tab Remote
- activate Remote Desktop (Allow users to connect remotely to this computer)
- the logged on user automatically has access to the pc. If you want to add additional users, click on "Select Remote Users" and add them.
XDA
- goto Programs->Terminal Services Client.
- fill in the name or ip-address of your pc and hit "Connect"
Works fine, but I find the resolution of the XDA II to low to be practical.
Think this would work much better on a Toshiba e800 with 640x480 res.
Enjoy,
Jos

Thanks a lot for the fast response.
Looks like there is something missing, I get a "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection setings, tap setting" message.
There is not very much to configure undet the settings tab, so it's a bit frustrating.
Any ideas?
:wink:

I have no connection configured, just the XDA II in the cradle and it works.

Thanks a lot!
To my surprise it worked as you mention once I tried again. Couldn't figure out what was wrong the first time.

i used the SOTI and yes i can see the XDA screen on the PC.
But i was looking for the same util but the other way round.
i wanna see the DeskTop screen on the PDA

You need this prog: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/downloads/pocketpc/remotedsp_eula.mspx
Allows you to show the display of the pda on the pc-screen and control it with mouse and keyboard.
And it's for free!

yes thats wot the UTIL dose i have now.
but im looking to..
display of the pc-screen on the PDA and control it

This is what you want....

Arthur,
Let's get things clear.
You want to control the pc from the XDA?
Just use terminal services client on the XDA in combination with the remote desktop feature of Windows XP Pro, as described in the earlier postings.
Or use VNC, you can download the client for the pocket pc here:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~midgley/wince/vnc.html
and the server for the pc here:
http://www.realvnc.com/download.html

hi jos yes you got it
one problem i have is when trying to connect via GPRS i get the msg NO MODEM AT THE OTHER END ?

Arthur, did you get this sorted in the end.
I was already running the server program on my main pc and downloaded the pocket pc vnc veiwer. Cant get it to work so far tho, is there any settings you have to change on the XDA?

PCAnywhere software for PPC

anyone know of a free PCAnywhere software for PPC (tmobile usa MDA)

I don't think there's been a PCA for PPC in years. As far as I know, your choices are VNC or the terminal client that comes with the phone.

can i use the vnc to connect to my desktop outlook? if yes can you please tell me how to do that?

pcAnywhere for PPC
Try this:

Try: z2 Remote2PC - very good for wlan and internet remote your pc
or LogMeIn (www.logmein.com) for remote your pc only via internet.
The second one is free.

Why not just use the Remote Desktop that is standard on your PPC and on your WindowsXP PC?
I know it "isn't all that"...but hey, it does what it has to do, nothing more, nothing less

Dumb question : where is that on the PPC and the PC ?
Cheers

On your PPC: Go to programs, click on Terminal Services Client (at least that is the name of the program on my Dutch Qtek Rom).
On your PC (to enable Remote Desktop): Click on the Windows Key and the Pause/Break button at the same time. In the upcoming screen select the upper-right tab, enable Remote Desktop.
Note:
If you want to connect not only through your LAN (home network), but also from anywhere in the world, make sure you open port number 3306 in your firewall/router.
Note2:
You can only connect via IP Adress, not via hostname or pointed domain name.
Good luck.

The default port for remote terminal is 3389, not 3309.

PC Anywhere 11.5 for the PPC came out a couple of years ago. It's still a current version buy PCA 12 which should be out soon is better (free Beta version expired this month).

I'll be, ya learn something new every day. Last PCA I saw was that nasty "test" version for Windows CE 2.0 a *long* time ago. I was never a big PCA fan anyway but i didn't see mention of it on symantec's site.

FYI - remote desktop is only available if you have XP Pro, not XP Home. If you have XP Home you're out of luck in this regard.

try gotomypc.com

Just use VNC for PockePC
Here's some links.
A pockepc vnc client: http://www.cs.utah.edu/~midgley/wince/vnc.html
Another vnc viewer client: http://dotnetvnc.sourceforge.net/

Can Windows Mobile Remote Desktop work over Bluetooth?

Hi there,
I was wondering if Windows Mobile Remote Desktop (with WM6.1) can possibly work over Bluetooth. I have my computer and mobile connected via Bluetooth ActiveSync, and I have my computer configured to allow remote desktop, however, I can't seem to get the two to connect.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks!

highly doubt it, RDP runs on a tcp/ip based network. i dont think that htc phones are capable of that over bluetooth

Yes they are.

remote desktop over bluetooth works fine, i prefer to use realvnc for remote desktop connections though and mocha vnc client software on the PPC , in my opinion its much better than MS remote desktop software

I wish I could figure out why it isn't working then. All the settings seem to be correct. I'll need to try and hunt down a guide somewhere, or I will fiddle and get it working and write one

HI JADEL,
You can use app like BTREMOTE it's a client/server based application allowing you to control most of your apps on the PC.
Try it.

Hi there, I own a HTC TUCH HD, and I want to be able to get remote desktop over bluetooth!
I see you know how to do that, so if you would not mind giving me a short tutorial on what should I do?
thx

it works just fine over bluetooth but not over activesync connection you need to use PAN
when you connect it log out the user disconnecting the activesync connection
thats not the case with bluetooth PAN and wifi
how you set it up is not really a wm question all the setup required is on the pc
and the same setup that you need if using remote desktop from another computer
so google got piles of guides how you turn on remote desktop on the pc and open the ports it require in the firewall

thank you very much for the answer!

Control Pc

Is there a way for the xperia to control a windows xp while on a wireless network or usb activesync?

you can setup remote desktop thru windows or use logmein.com--I prefer logmein cause its faster. Just create a free account and install the client on any PCs you want to control, then go to logmein.com on your xperia and you can connect to any of them.
I will also add that logmein looks amazing with the high res screen of xperia

You've also VNC clients like .net vnc client which is freeware & Mocha VNC which is shareware & install ultravnc on your pc ! but if you are not using a home premium edition of vista or xp (which does not contain any rdp server without hacking), use its std remote desktop ! you have a cab for rdp client on xda-forum & by using the search feature of the forum, you should also find a big thread comparing all remote desktop solutions !

[App] Need APK Remote Desktop Sharing over WiFi

Hello people....I'm looking for an APP that let me manage my PC Desktop over WiFi, I mean, no internet connection or server through like does Team Viewer...
Something like HOST and CLIENT using only WiFi connection...
any idea?
thanks in advance

Xtralogic did a Remote Desktop Client to control your PC via your phone - worked over wifi (assuming both PC and phone are on the same wifi)
Is that what you mean?
Failing that I did try LogMeIn once which seemed ok cross wifi networks

Realvnc or any other vnc server on your desktop.
Androidvnc or any other vnc client on your phone.

I have installed Xtralogic on my phone already, but which one do you recommend for serving like HOST or Server on Windows PC?

It just uses the native windows RDP stuff - just needs enabling on the pc - i.e. right click my computer, properties, remote connections, allow remote connections.
As mentioned already, I heard VNC is good too.

Try team viewer

wyse seems to have the best interface (ive seen) and is simple to use.
you can get remote desktop with just google user name.
I used to use remote RDP enterprise which was also good.
