Product Features
Do you have problems with ActiveSync or accessing your file server from
your Pocket PC? PocketHostnames most often can solve all this trouble.
PocketHostnames helps you create static host name entries, where each host name
points to a specific IP address.
Most trouble when connecting to other systems from your Pocket PC stems
from so-called "name resolution problems". This is where
PocketHostnames helps out. Just like a hosts file on your desktop PC,
user-defined static mappings prevent these name resolution problems. It has been
turned out to be especially useful for VPN connections.
As PocketHostnames helps with networking, it obviously requires a kind of
network connection on your Pocket PC. All connection types are supported,
typical example might be wireless network cards (WLAN) and dial-in connections
including VPN.
Features in detail are:
- A hosts file on your Pocket PC
PocketHostnames emulates a hosts file in the Pocket PC environment.
If you are a long-term TCP user on you desktop, chances are good you
have missed this ability on your handheld. Now, use the same power while
on the go.
- Reliable ActiveSync no matter how you access your Desktop
ActiveSync relies on WINS and DNS entries for resolving the sync
partner. When dialing in our synchronizing via the Internet, these WINS
and DNS entries are most often not available. With PocketHostnames,
these entries can be placed in a local hosts file and such made reliably resolvable. No matter how you
access you desktop - the correct
entries are always stored on the device.
- Access private File Servers
Access all those file servers that are not listed in DNS or WINS due
to security policies or for some other reason. With PocketHostnames, you
can create static entries for these systems and reliable access them.
- Preview Web Sites under Construction
A great feature for web designers targeting Pocket Internet Explorer.
Work on a site while it is not known to the public. The final DNS name
might not even exist. With PocketHostnames, create a simple static host
name entry and point it to your server's IP address. Even if your hosts
needs HTTP hosts headers, PocketPasswords does the trick.
As you expect from a well-done Pocket PC application, there is no
learning curve. PocketPasswords conforms to all Pocket PC user interface
standards. Just install it, start it up and feel home!

Pocket PC 2000 or 2002. It is supported on devices with Intel's strong
