How to install an ActiveX control in PocketPC?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc,microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs (More info?)

PocketPC can't "Connect to Client Desktops" using Remote Web Workplace.
When I click on "Connect to Client Desktops", for some reason a popup box w/
"Internet Explorer" as the heading says "Press OK to continue loading the
content of this page". After clicking OK I get this message:

"This portion of the RWW requires the MS Remote Desktop ActiveX Control.
Your Browser's security settings may be preventing you from downloading
ActiveX controls. Adjust these settings and try to connect again."

Someone told me that PocketPC doesn't download ActiveX controls & that I
would have to manually install it. Is that true? And if so, how would I do
that?

Thanks!

Thanks for the info re ActiveX.
So, is it not possible for PocketPC to "Connect to Client Desktops" using
Remote Web Workplace?

Looks like as far as RWW is concerned, the Pocket

Sorry to sound stupid, but what is RWW?

Does it just use the Remote Desktop ActiveX that was out? I used that along
time ago.

Can't you just use the PPC terminal service to RD. It's all the same.
