How to connect a headless device without ActiceSync

Hi, I want to build a device with platform builder and develop the
applications with VS2005. I generated the SDK and find my device in VS2005.
But the "manual server" platform manager connection is missing. I found a
blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/vsdteam/archive/2005/04/28/413304.aspx) that
shows another way. Unfortunately both executables (ConManClient2, CMaccept)
stop immediately at the target device. I think I must configure my platform
prepared for this.

Does anybody had experience with this issue?

Meanwhile I found that ConManClient2 runs fine in a debug platform (with
kernel debugger, KITL, debug executables) but stops in retail build
platforms. Are there any secret dependencies from platform options?

Is there any other way to work from VS2005 with a CE5 platform?

You are aware that no released version of the .net compact framework
officially supports headless, right?

VS2005 in does support native C++ development for smart devices. So there is
no need for the compact framework. I just need to connect VS2005 with the
device.
Since I build the target device with platform builder I am able to control
what components are included. If some special component is needed I would
add it.

You are aware that this is a .net compact framework group, right?

Even if some individuals here are knowledgeable in your area of interest,
the platformbuilder or evc groups will give you wider coverage.

Cheers
