How would I set up a connection between:
- My PPC and my PC via IR
- a PPC and another PPC

so that I can use the TCP/IP protocoll to exchange data. I know how to
porgram TCP/IP, but I don't know how to set up a conection of the
devices... Does ActiveSync already provide an IP for the device? How
about 2 mobiles together - is it possible?

You would set up a connection in a similar was as between any two TCP/IP
enabled devices. You can enter the IP addresses manually, use name
resolution, etc.

If two Pocket PC are using wired or wireless ethernet, they should each have
an address like any kind of device.

Yes. It is shown in the ActiveSync log (look in folder %temp% --
wcescomm.log). But you can't initiate connections to the device over
ActiveSync Pass Through -- it only supports TCP (not UDP) and only outgoing
connections.
