How can i connect Windows Live for Windows Mobile throug a proxy server?

Hi all,
The proxy server is used in wireless system at my work. I enabled proxy server configuration in communication manager and i can connect web sites with internet explorer.
My question is, while i am unable to connect windows live messenger, there're also no proxy configuration on it. Are tehere any way to use messenger through proxy server ?
Or, i guess Windows Live for Windows Mobile is brand application came with WM6.0. Do you know may i use old messenger versions via proxy? Or do you know any other msn client with proxy support ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

you can setup the proxy in live messenger

I couldnt find any place to enter a proxy address in messenger. Could you please tell me where can i enter the proxy?

hey, I connect through a proxy for all my internet (using tmobile usa), and I was never able to figure out how to use windows live via proxy. however to download my hotmail emails I finally found a work around. you have to upgrade ur hotmail account to hotmail plus (20 dollars/year). now u have access to pop settings and set up a new email account using those settings (not through windows live) good luck

I do not care mails, i even dont use hotmail for mailing.
i need to instant messaging to keep talking with my girlfriend.

You can't use a proxy server to access WLM Service from your Pocket PC. It simply doesn't support this.
The way that the client communicates with the Messenger service greatly differs when using a proxy, and support for this is not available in the mobile client. You NEED to create a direct connection, which thus prevents you from connecting in networks where using a proxy server (HTTP or SOCKS) is mandatory.

My mobile connected to Wifi but I couldnot surf WEB cause I didn't know how to setting up
my working Proxy via port 8080.
Help me!

Same problem here, but a little diferent.
I connect to the proxy server in my office network trough wireless access point, and then it asks me for the user credentials. I put in the credentials (i have an unrestricted account, i'm one of the administrators) but then it keeps asking me for them as if i had used wrong credentials! Are there any configuration on the proxy server to accept WM6.1 connections?
Thank's!

Hi i too am trying to tame this beast of an issue...

I too would very much like a Cisco VPN client, and one that's fairly easy to set up where the settings correlate to my Windows client.

As far as I know, there are no Cisco VPN client for mobile devices.
However, I've successfully used a VPN Client from BlueFire Security towards a Cisco Concentrator from my previous HTC Trinity device.

I managed to get a trial of the new bluefire VPN client and it works a treat
thanks!

Cisco VPN on g1

Hello,
i am searching for a VPN Client on g1 .... i installed one from the market but it didnt worked with my universitiy cisco vpn. I also searched the forum but didnt found anything working. The iphone client worked with my university vpn ... is there any comparable client for android?
/edit i didnt test the froyo build-in vpn on my universities wlan but with the one from donut i couldnt connect, so if it isnt any different i would need an third-party client.
cheers

[Q] how to use built in client to connect to cisco ipsec vpn

is there a way I can work the built in VPN client to connect to a VPN using IPSec mode
i'm kind of a noob regarding this issue
i have the directions on how to set up the connection in an iPhone using the IPSec mode
i have
> server address
> account name
> password
> group name
> secret
for the connection
now, how do i work this into the android client
i tried configuring using different combinations of this info above
but it says "Unable to connect to network. Try again?"
i have a rooted samsung galaxy s 2.2 stock froyo
any help is really appreciated
tia
edit: the handset is technically a samsung captivate, although I don't suppose it'll make a difference

Unfortunately the stock Android kernel won't work with a VPN requiring a Group Name. If you've got a google account (eg a gmail address) you might want to add another star to issue 3902 to ask for this to be fixed.

It can be done if you replace the firmware with something which includes the tun device. The Galaxy SII supposedly includes this out of the box.
The alternative is to reconfigure the VPN to use L2TP/IPSec and authenticate with a certificate rather than preshared key.

Sorry those two links, well, aren't links. Being new here I'm not allowed to post links in case I'm a spammer.

Using only the built-in VPN client it's not possible to connect to a Cisco VPN.
I made a small How-To (Link) to get this working on 2.3.3, but I think this way should basically work for FroYo too. Maybe you should give it a try

[Q] Disable Internet when connected in wifi

hey guys,
I'm currently using a galaxy note and i was wondering if there's any way to disable my internet but to keep me connected to the local network when I'm using a wifi connection? thanks in advance.

use a firewall service like droidwall from the playstore. and apply the rules with whitelist with none checked. You need to be rooted.. or you can modify your router settings and give the phone a static ip and then from access restrictions disable http, https pop etc access to that IP

thanks alot, droidwall works just fine :good::laugh:
