My ppc application, syncronizes via a web service

The web service can be in a IIS in my local LAN.

In this situation, I can access the web service if I use a ppc with a
wireless connection to my LAN.

But if the PPC is craddled and using the passthrough connection via
ActiveSync, it doesn't access the web service in any local LAN pcs. Not even
a Web Service in the IIS residing in the PC where the craddled is connected
via usb.

But the PPC accesses the outer Internet ok, as well as any web service
publishes in the outer internet.


I want my application to be able to syncronize using the web service, either
in a Public Web Service Scenario, as well as in a Local Intranet Web Service
Scenario. And I don't want to force my users to have Wireless PPCs.

Any idea ?

Thanks
 
reference the web service url with 'machine name' or 'ip address' instead of
'localhost'
 
Thank you Casey.

I was referencing it not as localhost but with the machine name. It didn't
work.
But it worked with ip address.
