Hi!!!

How can I set the Pocket Internet Explorer up to connect to a local port
in Pocket PC? Every time I try to connect to "http:\\localhost\Default.asp" I
get an error that says that it "cannot connect with current connection
settings..."

Long story short, I created my own customized Internet Information
Services for both Windows CE and Pocket PC. It works well indeed in both type
of emulators, and in Windows CE devices. The problem that I have is only
present in real Pocket PC devices.

I am sure that this is a Pocket PC configuration issue, since the
problem dissapears as soon as I connect the handheld to a network connection
(e.g., when I use ActiveSync, or I turn my RF access point).

I was told that the loop back adapter comes included in the Compact
Framework. However, http://127.0.0.1/Default.asp gives exactly the same
behavior.

Any help is appreciated!!!!!
