I have a .Net Compact app running on Windows Mobile, and I want to be able to connect to a webservice running on the ‘host’ machine (i.e. the desktop the PDA is plugged into) when connected via ActiveSync, but I don’t know the ip address of the host. How can I find the ip of the desktop PC progromatically on the PDA?
I’ve found a KB article How To Retrieve the IP Address of the Remote PPP Peer, which uses the host ‘PPP_Peer’. So I tried:
And that does give me what I’m looking for (169.254.2.2 on the PC I’m using at the moment).
