Security and Palm

®

Desktop software (Windows)

The Windows version of Palm Desktop software observes the security password for
your Treo. If you forget your Treo password, you cannot view your information in
Palm Desktop. You can change your password, but all entries marked as private will
be deleted. You can restore these entries the next time you sync.

1. Go to Applications

and select Security

.

2. Select the Password box.
3. Select the Lost Password box.
4. Select Yes.

If you want additional security for Palm Desktop files, you may wish to purchase a
third-party solution.

Connecting to a virtual private network

If you want to use your Treo to access your corporate email account or other files on
your corporate server, you may need to set up a virtual private network (VPN) on your
Treo. A VPN enables you to log in to your corporate server through the company's
firewall (security layer). Without a VPN, you cannot break through the firewall to gain
access to the server.

The Auto Sync feature in
the VersaMail

®

application

may not work with a VPN
connection.
