PocketPC and VPN Help

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

I had this problem. I connected to my workplace with my PDA (Pocket pc 2003)
and my SE T68i (bluetooth). I could also connect to my workplace with my VPN
but to get it to work i had to manually put my DNS servers in to the VPN
settings on the PDA, and add the internal servers to the exception list.
After doing this it worked very fine. I can use a terminal server on my
network now. Cool

That is because the PPC sees those as internet addresses and unless
you have "this network connects to the internet" *AND* your proxy
server settings correct, you won't be able to do this via a VPN on the
PPC.
