Hi,
 
Thanks for your post.
 
As your description, I understand you encountered problem when you connect
the internet via pocket pc 2003. If I am off base, please let me know.
 
Based on my research, there might be caused by the proxy setting on your
pocket pc.
 
1. IF your SBS2003 uses a proxy to connect to the Internet, please
configure the Pocket PC to use a proxy setting according to your
environments.
2. IF your SBS2003 does NOT use a proxy to connect to the Internet:
Pocket PC will by default use the Work connection, which won't connect to
the Internet unless a proxy is configured
 
 For Pocket PC 2003, please follow the steps to configure:
1. Press Start, select Settings, select Data Connections
2. On the Menu, Edit Connections
3. Add a URL Exception of *.*/* . This will route all FQDNs to the
work network
 
MORE INFORMATION
1. If the workstation uses RAS (dial-up or VPN to connect to the
Internet you should establish the RAS connection before launching the
emulator
2. If the emulator is configured for "Virtual Switch" you need to
have a DHCP server available
 
I hope the above information helps, in the meantime if you have any other
questions please let me know. It's my pleasure to be of further assistance.

Best regards,

Your Name (MSFT)
