Remote Desktop Connection from PDA (hTC Touch Diamond) to linux (ubuntu) - Networking

Hi all! This is a thread for the linux lovers aut there...
I have a hTC Touch Diamond with WinMo 6.1 and I want to remotely connect it to my ubuntu desktop.
DETAILS:
-my ubuntu connects to the internet through a (MSI) router that has a PPPoE connection
-I set up the Remote Desktop in ubuntu and got something like "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 192.168.x.xxx , x.local."
-Then I noticed that "192.168.1.100" was a link to "vnc://192.168.x.xxx::5000"
-Also the "x.local" was a link to "vnc://x.local::5000"
-I already have a VNC client for PocketPC (link below) but don't know how to use it...
-my PDA connects to the internet through a (orange)3G-connection
- oh...and yes...I'd like to remote connect NOT only from the local network!
If someone already got this kind of connection working, please,please share.
Thanks!

yes you need the client on the pda and the vnc server on your linux box
if you want to be able to use it over the internet thats just a setup thing for your lan network vnc works the same no matter what the client is running on
pda, another pc a mac you name it
suggest you read up on how you setup the vnc server and client
and get it to work on your lan and then move on getting all the ports opened and or directed so your router don't block it and it should work over the internet without an probs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Network_Computing good place to start reading

First of all, you must forward ports (5900 and 0) on your router.
Later in system preferences you'll wind remote desktop settings

}
Setup your password, reboot the router and voila!
In VNCViewer for ppc type your ip : no 192. or 10. but the one you can find ex. here :
http://www.ip-adress.com/
So, your IP::5900 and below type your password, click connect and wait for your ubuntu desktop appear.

DONE! this is how I did it
ok! After some searching/learning/trying I finally got it working. Here is how you do it:
NOTES:
- PDA: hTC Touch Diamond with custom ROM (DiaDuit)
- PC: LinuxMint 8 (based on ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala)
- internet connection (PC): through a MSI wireless router
- internet connection (PDA): orange 3G (my provider)
1. get the VNC Client (for PDA) from below this post (vncviewer).
2. set your linux box:
- press ALT+F2 to open the "Run App" dialog
- enter "gconftool -u /desktop/gnome/remote_access/network_interface" and hit RUN
(if you don't have a karmic based linux see this for help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers)
- configure the Vino application (this is the default VNC server in ubuntu based distros): http://www.debianadmin.com/remote-desktop-sharing-in-ubuntu.html
3. configure your router (if you have one): just forward the ports 5800 and 5900 for your local IP (mine is 192.168.1.100). You can use other ports; just have to change these default ones in vncviewer and ofcourse to forward them properly.
4. find your external IP (http://www.ip-adress.com/) and enter it in the vncviewer. Type your password. Hit ENTER!
5. scare your girlfriend and make her think the computer is possessed. (Well...in fact it is ! )
Feel free to ask me about anything I failed to explain.

Hi marginean.m,

Activesync 4.1 isn't saving the "https://" in serv

I am having a very strange problem on my Cingular 8125 with the original ROM and WM5. The same problem appears on my colleagues Ipaq PDA which he recently upgraded to WM5. The IT Manager's Ipaq PDA doesn't show this problem. Here is my problem...
In the Server Configuration under Activesync, we have to put in the string
https:// and after doing that Activesync connects to the Exchange 2003 server and downloads all my emails correctly. I disconnect the USB cable from my laptop or if I put my phone to standby and then reconnect, I see that the https:// string is missing from the server name though the rest of the name is still there. Our config requires SSL and use RPC over HTTP (whatever that means).
Any suggestions?
you don't need to enter in the https:// part because if you check the box in AS for "This server requires an ecrypted (SSL) connection" it will automatically assume https://
(Open active sync---menu---configure server) - On PDA

What you are saying makes sense. However, the problem we started with was - keeping the setting without the https://, I tested the following scenarios:
1. Connect via wifi to work network: Activesync works and gets the emails from OWA server.
2. Connect via wifi at home: Activesync fails giving the 80072f0d error which says "The security certificate in the server is invalid. Contact your Exchange Server administrator or ISP to install a valid certificate on the server.".
3. Connect via USB or IR or Bluetooth to the laptop which is connected to the work network (wired LAN): I get exactly the same error.
To resolve this, IT suggested to put the https:// prefix in front of the server name and we found that it works. But, then we got the new problem as it doesn't save the prefix (which I think it shouldn't as SSL is checked). The question is - why including that helps? Also, why does it allow the IT Manager's Ipaq to save the prefix? We compared and he has the same build of WM5 on his Ipaq.
Thanks for the all ths suggestions.
You should install the certificate on the device. The SSL certificate that is.....
go to the site where your exchange owa then export the certificate....
transfer the certificate to your pda
install the certificate to your pda
now you should be straightened out.....
Importing certificate didn't work
I imported the Verisign certificate into my phone, but I still get the same error. See the image below showing that the certicate has been installed correctly:

Can you view your computers files on your phone using AS

Activesync? How would you do it? Through file explorer or something?
I'm doing it by standard means of Windows.
Yeah, just enter your share's name on your device. The built in file explorer will do it, but I prefer Resco.
Browsing my pc via wifi:

Can you not Active Sync via wifi then??
I have wifi but never tried it
I don't think so.
I don't know for sure as I don't use Activestink. (It will not run on my computer)
When I was using AS and the built in file explorer I didnt see an option to look in My Network? Do I need to configure anything? The furthest "Up" I could get to was My Device
I dont understand how to get to My Network? Anyone?
How do you connect to your networked PCs?
Hey how did you connect to your networked PC? I have Total Commander and have tried setting up the network neighborhood through that to no avail Can you access the network neighborhood via the built in file viewer?! If so how?
Thanks, Jess
BTW, Microsoft disabled ActiveSync via wifi in version 4 due to complaints of security, etc. Try 3.8 I believe that was the last version that supported sync over wifi. (Although I have not tried it)
Im not sure how to setup a network with my phone? Anyone know how to do this? Please?! Thanks!
Sorry to go on but... Anyone?
I think I need to set up a network on my computer so the phone can connect to it? Yes? No?
This works for me:
My Computer
Computer name: pchome
Create a folder on you PC for example "PocketPC" and share this folder!
PocketPC
Using TotalCommander in this example.
- Open TotalCommander
- Double click "\\" It should be above "Application Data".
- Double click "LAN"
- Double click "< new server >
- Enter "pchome" -> "OK"
- Press "OK" again
Now it should show pchome on your screen.
When you double click it it should show you your shared folders
Hmmm, that looks good I will have to try this when I get home.
To share a folder you just right click it and tick the share box or something dont you?
Correct
I cant get it to work ?
I followed all those steps... Hmmmmmmmmm, just coming up no files in the folder
I followed the same steps, even have other folders that are shared... still not working... hmm
Thanks, Jess

terminal Server Port number

Hi,
Is there any way to use the terminal server client to use different port numbers. I have terminal servers that use non standard as well as default ports, we change to get though firewalls ect. I know you can change the default listener port, is there anyway to enter the port number from the TS interface, in the windows world I would just enter servername:2323 and it would use port 2323.. Any ideas?
With the WM6 version of Remote Desktop you can enter the URL/IP Address followed by a colon and then the port number, but not in WM5.
You could try and install the WM6 version that's attached, although I haven't tried it on WM5. (DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK, ETC)
What you can do with the WM5 version of RDP is
1. Copy and paste the default RDP Shortcut on the PPC and rename it with any name describing the server you want to connect to.
2. Run the new RDP shortcut and then use the Running Programs tab in the Start > Settings > System tab > Memory app to actually stop RDP. (This creates the necessary registry entries.)
3. Edit the following registry key on the PPC.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\<NEW SHORTCUT NAME>]
Add a DWORD value named "Server Port" and enter the new port number
you want to use.
For what it's worth, the WM6 version allows automatic login and is far more responsive.
Terminal Server
Thanks!! The WM6 works great, one note it doesn't replace the old version. Just had to create a shortcut to the new version and it works with no problems.
hey, i´ve got some questions,

i copied the original wptsc.exe and renamed it to exampletsc.exe and started it. i stoped it as you describe and checked the registry for the keys but i can´t find a new folder with the name of the new rdp file... i can only find and edit the default folder.

Hi guyz. I am no programmer but i came across this little tool and thought might share it with you guyz. I am just an End User and the complete credit to this App goes to the Admin of T2 Remote Touch
Okie herez the steps itz very simple :-
1) Download T2 Remote Touch Delta v2.0
2) Connect your Phone through Active Sync and Run the MSI file and Install T2 Remote Touch.
3) Next you will get and option to Install the App in the Phone with Message "Install T2 Remote Touch using the default Installation Directory". If you want to install the app in Phone Memory Click yes Else Select no and Select your Storage Card (Recommended).

}
4) Now go to your phone and complete the setup.
5) COme back to your desktop and Finish the Setup.
6) You will see a window with 2 ip Addresses one to control through Internet and one through local WiFi or WLAN. Note down watever u need and press any key to continue.
7) Next Step is to configure the Server Right click the Remote Touch Server Icon in the SysTray and click Setup. These setup the port no. and the password for your server. If your server is behind a router then make sure to allow the port no. u set for port forwarding.
8) All done now start the app in your mobile. Most probably you will get a Authentication Failed, because the default settings might not work for everyone. Go to Menu > Setup. Put in there the IP Address, Port and Password you have and all done you can now control your PC from your mobile after connection.
9) Use Scroll to move through the desktop and tap for left click. I hope u can figure out the rest of it.

Great tutorial my friend. But using Wifi File Explorer or AirDroid is so much easier than setting up a whole FTP connection. Don't you think?
Don't get me wrong this is a good tutorial :good:
You mentioned that this'll allow us to use internet on our Galaxy S II using our PC's net. This is something handy

Well I guess those features are to share Android file to PC but in this way you will share PC TO ANDROID :thumbup: .and it think playing videos or music over wifi without having to download in phone first is way more cool
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
BTW thanks for idia about internet sharing ,i will make thread about it soon cuz when i got my android first that's my big problem to get internet from my pc
