I need to run RDP on WM6 without a login prompt. Currently when you select to use remote desktop on WM6 it prompts for domain/userid/password to login.
Is there a registry hack, configuration, or maybe a command line type param to get around this?
Anyone, this is a show stopper for me!!!

You need to login first to access a computer. When you startup your computer it asks you to login right: username, password (may be blank), and domain (local - you don't write it).
Do you want to hack some PCs without knowing the username and password?
Shortly: You cannot get around this.
Sorry for poor explaination
I really don't mind if user id and pwd are required, I just would like to be able to pass it from command line or something so this can be more automatted, that was all.
Maybe you could create the .rdp file on your desktop and copy it over?

is there a remote desktop tutorial or how to guide? as i dont know how to work the thing but id love some help
try to use XP remote desktop, it is same !
you must create an admin account (or use a existing one) with a password..
then press "winkey+pausebreak" and click on the "remote" tab
check the box "alow users to connect remotely...."
note the name bellow this check box, that is the name your computer is seen in the world wild web..
connect your phone via active sync (to use the internet connection)
open the remote desktop app on your ppc
fill the blanks with the data you have collected/created:
Computer: the name bellow the check box
user name: your user account on windows logon
password: your password
domain: not needed
remember, the windows account (logon) must be without limitations, i mean, an admin account
mine is working here
You dont need an Admin-account
just add your Account to the group remotedesktop-users, its even more secure...
And...note that by default, an account with empty password cannot be accessed through remote desktop (However you can override by setting security policy).
My company standard for pda's is the crackberry. However, I was able to connect to our exchange server with my ATT Tilt. I believe that our IT dept has now enabled some security feature that will not allow my phone to connect to the server anymore.
Using WM 6.1
Any ideas?
it sounds like the server cert is invalid. you can get more information on the error using activesync to set up the server source.
anyway, your it geeks must give you a copy of the server cert (.cer file). They can export it, and you can use activesync to put it onto your device
Thanks for the help. They've now established a "pilot" program for WM6, so I don't know if they'll actually give me a copy of the server cert. I was able to copy the cert that was assigned to my PC and install it on my device, but still no dice. It was installed as an Intermediate and not a root. I don't know if that makes a difference or how/if it can be changed if it does.
Im not sure either. It would take the it geeks about 30 seconds to generate the .cer file. I had the same problem as you, so I exported the certificate from my server, stuck it onto my htc cruise using activesync, then using file explorer, navigated to the .cer file, clicked on it, and it worked.
The certificate I exported was the exact on that was imported to iis.
thanks again.
For some reason the cert from the server is not working. Could you check to see if yours was installed as a root or an intermediate when you get a chance?
This is going to be a HUGE bummer if I have to get a crackberry.
to get the cert:
1) on the server where iis is running, run mmc
2) add the certificate snap-in referencing the local computer.
3) navigate to Personal or Trusted Root certificates (depending if your cert is self-signed or from a CA), find the cert that was used for the iis web service that is running OTA, right click on it, then select export (.der format will be ok).
4) have the it geeks give this file to you.
5) using activesync, move it to you device.
6) using file explorer on the device, navigate to where the .cer file is, then click on it.
7) thats it.
Step 4 is the problem. I don't think I'll get the cert from IT because I'm not part of the pilot program. This was a recent change that required certificates to crack down on renegades like me.
I guess I'll have to wait until they roll out the corporate wide program.
Oh well, Crackberry here I come.
Thanks again for the info.
Does anyone know how an exchange serve tells the difference between remote access from a desktop and remote access from a handheld?
The address is really different. webmail is at www.yourdomain.com/exchange, which over the air activesync is www.yourdomain.com/?something? (im not sure exactly). The ppc activesync program knows what to append to the end of your url to activate the correct application pool on the server.
I am trying to connect and perform FTP/SSH from my WM (custom ROM) to iPod (jailbroken).
The tools I use is PocketPutty (for SSH) and Resco FTP (add in to the Explorer). The other tool is MobileFTPClient. When SSH connected, it prompted that the certificate is not recognized and requires user to accept. Once accepted, it works ok.
When using Resco, it says secure connection is not established. My guess is that certificate issue. However, it has no option to add the cert. Same with MobileFTPClient, it just give cert error too.
Question: how do I add this iPod's cert into the WM so that the FTP using Resco can work? I have the hex value.
Hello guys,
Do you think you could help: I was trying to use astro SMB module - but no luck. What I did:
1. open ASTRO -> Network -> New -> Windows server
2. I entered following:
: Label: Transfer
: Server: 192.168.1.12 (also tried "windows name")
: Share: transfer
When I click "TEST" I get the message: "Server not found".
Details button opens message: "jcifs.smb.SmbAuthException: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password
Server is Windows XP proff - and other PC's are connecting to the "share" without username/passwords (use simple file sharing).
I am trying to connect using my network's WiFi.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you
I have not figured how to use this module in a Windows environment either. One thing I noticed comparing it to the OP is that I do not have a ASTRO -> Network -> New -> Windows server option. Instead of Windows server I only see SFTP, SMB and Bluetooth options.
Is anyone using Astro to browse Windows shares?... If so, can you outline the steps you took to get it to work? Maybe this requires a Samba client in the Windows host? I'm using the latest version available in the Market using a Samsung Captivate.

Hi,
i've like you sftp and smb but it gives to me the same error than tazbo.
Can you tell me what is the right configuration?
SMB, you must enter the username and password of the account with which you log into the Windows machine. The IP address goes in the Server field. No need for a Domain unless you are on a corporate net with domain controller.
It works just perfectly for me, but the machines I connect to require that I log in (Windows login).
I've used this to connect to my Ubuntu file server in my house. While I didn't have to enter a username on the windows boxes that connect to the server, I did have to use "guest" as a username with an empty password field.
Good Luck!

Just wanted to throw a Thanks out there also.
I've been knocking my head against the wall trying to figure out this SMB thing and with the suggestion of using Guest I was finally able to connect to ALL of my shares from my phone.
So again, thanks
Please give a link of the module, i cant find it in the market

this is what must be done to use your regular xp user name and password -
1. open windows control panel
2. double click on administrative tools
3. double click on local security policy
4. hi-light security options
5. double click on network access:sharing and security model for local accounts
6. change to classic - local users authenticate as themselves
Thx a bunch, feinmark
I followed those steps you posted, but I still kept getting the same error
These are my setup

Share: 'Empty'
Domain: 'Empty'
Directory: 'Empty'
Username: 'my user name'
Passcode: 'Empty' b/c I do not have one for my comp
=============================================

Disable windows firewall.
If you use win7, make sure your in your network as: 'HOME network' and not as 'PUBLIC'.
Thus fixed it for me..

I remember back in the days when internet was accessed at 33kbps speeds (sorry.. old skool guy here) we used to use ini files in our installation package to set customers' email, proxy etc settings. In Windows there even used to be a file type of "ISP settings" or something similar that you could only right click and install new settings.
Now I'm facing the same situation. Doing my own client I need a way to automatically set up remote Androids to use certain IMAP email server, CardDAV, CalDAV etc. Does there exist any format of file, MMS message or set of commands to do it?

I don't think so you should look into a MDM system for android, I think that your best chance honestly. or find an app or company that allow push settings for network admins.
