Remote Desktop Connection, missing?

Is the iPaq 210 missing Remote Desktop Connection? Now that I have a Windows Home Server and a use for Remote Desktop Connection has it been deleted?

Failing all else (i.e., if the 210 lacks a client), Menneisys refers to an RDP port that might work on WM6:here

Well I for one find it strange that a unit billed as a Pocket PC for business would not have Remote Desktop Built into it. Now that I have a windows home server, the Pocket PC I am thinking about does not appear to have remote desktop. And for my eyes that version of remote desktop is just way to small, as well as the problem with it timing out after only ten minutes.

1. you can download the CAB file from The Crossbow RDP in Windows Mobile 5.0 - xda-developers (fourth post)

2. if, for some reason, you don't like it, give a try to TSMobiles with Jbed: Expert: Werner "Menneisyys" Ruotsalainen - REVIEW: TSMobiles: Terminal Service Client for Mobiles

Does the Crossbow RDP support the /console or /admin command, or some other version of this command? I need to leave the sound on the remote computer. I have found that RDP just doesn't seem to work with WHS console, one gets about 2/3 of the console display.

It is truly disappointing that a Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 classic device will not talk correctly to a Windows Home Server device. If Microsoft doesn't care enough to make their own software compatable why should anyone else?

1. nope, console mode isn't supported - see TSMobile if you do need it, it MIGHT work (it didn't work with my Vista - see my review)

2. if you need remote media control, use a remote media controller app instead - see my related Bible.

Nope I simply need to control the Windows Home Server, and I would think that a device billed as "designed for business" would allow one to control a Microsoft Server 2003 box. It seems that my old Pocket PCs had much more capability than the new ones do. I fail to understand why Microsoft offers an option to leave the sound on the device, and then fails to do just that. Or why the RDP only allows for about 2/3 of the Windows Home Server console to display. With the 'old' remote desktop connector at least one could display the remote screen in 5 sections.

Check out TSMobile - it might work in console mode.

Here's a 'How-to'. There's also a post in the thread which tells you about an alternative to Remote Desktop to get around the 10-minute timeout.

WM6 Remote Desktop on Axim X51V with WM5!
