Comment Windows CE Connection Info (Score 1) 67
On my PalmPC 2.0 device:
If I run Start/Programs/Communication/ActiveSync , select Serial @ 115k and my desktop's name, then run pppd /dev/ttyS0 115200 192.168.55.1:192.168.55.2 asyncmap 0 lock crtscts modem connect "chat -v CLIENT CLIENTSERVER" on my linux box, I get a message indicating that the P/PC has connected to my desktop and is searching for the "connection agent" and then another message indicating (surprise) that it was unsuccessful.
I checked the debug logs from pppd, and the only protocol the P/PC asks for is TCP/IP, so ActiveSync must be based on that. I ran a simple TCP portscanner against the P/PC and found something on port 990, but I can't tell what it is - probably some proprietary ActiveSync server.
It would be nice if someone could reverse-engineer the ActiveSync protocol, but I'm not holding my breath. In the mean time, I use an ftp server for WinCE I got from this website. The MIPS executable is here and the SH3 executable is here.
Hope this helps someone...
