[Q] Microsoft VPN (PPTP) - Nook Color General

Hi Folks..
I was wondering whether there is an app that support MS VPN, my work pals have Droids and they have the option within thier wireless settings, Either I am blind or B&N took that option out...
Does anyone know a method of re-activating this function or an app that can replace the functionality?
Thanks all.

I'm looking as well. Will share if I find something.

Thank you

Try this!!

Looks like a Cisco Client... When I get home though I will try it out, thank you for the URL!!!

I spent a bit of time trying to get this to work, but I'm not a network infrastructure person, and I couldn't figure out how to map the fields from Cisco VPN Windows session's settings to the fields the Android app expects.
I'm now looking for a Citrix client to read ICA files directly.

Bump:
I'm also looking for a way to connect to a MS VPN from the Nook Color.

Anyone have luck with this?

I am fairly certain Android has native PPTP support, maybe using poptop or whatever the free one is called.
I think my dx has it atleast.

VPN?

Hi
Just purchased a Kaiser and loving it!
I am new to windows mobile and trying to SSH into one of my work servers.
I have purchased PocketTY and copied my SSH2 key on to my device. I have setup a VPN in the connections settings.
How on earth do I make PocketTY connect via 3G and dial my VPN to access the server? I cannot find any docs this at all. Do I need a VPN client and if so which one should I get.
Thanks
bump
Does no one really know how to do this?
Thanks
Try PocketPutty, works a treat for me and it's free........
I think that it depends on what type of vpn you're using. Me for example I use Open VPN and therefore I had to use openvpn client on my kaiser (and I'm very happy that there is one). I also think that in your case is the vpn that isn't working properly yet. Let me know what vpn link do you have and I'll try to help you

If you like PHP..
There's also another PPC webserver called PocketHPH which will let you run PHP scripts on the phone: http://mobileleap.net/hph
Pretty neet, free for personal use. I've messed with it before, but haven't reinstalled it since reflashing.. Looking at the site, they've apparently updated it with fopen() support, which kicks ass. Now I can write webapps for my phone which interact with my website (also PHP)
w00t!
--Weasel
Be nice if this was useful with the cheap data plans from ex-Cingular, but alas, natted.. I kept thinking "It'd be nice to be able to pop a quick connection to my phone and look at some status" but just won't work.
Tried Hamachi?
There's a PPC Hamachi client which is free.. Then you get VPN capabilities, no more NAT, poof.. Access to your mobile from a computer! The only downside is that Hamachi has to be installed on the computer you're accessing from..
HTH,
--Weasel
EDIT: http://www.hamachi.cc is the address.
EDIT 2: Hard to find from the main page, it's actually here: https://secure.logmein.com/labs.asp (near the bottom)
EDIT 3: For those lazy types: https://secure.logmein.com/labs/hamachi-0.0.3.1.cab
I found this: OpenSSH ported to Windows CE!
http://www.codeplex.com/wiki/view.aspx?projectname=CESSH
It's alpha, at v0.0.1..
Download link is a weird AJAXy popupish thing, so I can't grab the URL without some legwork, and I'm feelin' kinda mellow (read: lazy) right now.. but no registration required, just click the "Download Now" button on the right..
About to d/l and try it out.. Hope it works!

Hmm, VPN. Yeah, that could work. I wouldn't use whatever solution the above is, most likely, but a general VPN could do the trick as long as it reconnects on its own and such. Thanks for the suggestion!

cisco vpn

ok,
this is gonna be a little description and a question at once.
i've tried to get a cisco vpn client to run on the diamond. at first, i tried athenaVPN, which works really good, but it installs automatically a firewall-app next to the vpn client. this FW is started automatically at windows startup, no chance to get this off. after that, i tried to use bluefire vpn. it took a lot of time to get this running, but now it works, but it slows down the whole system. i don't appriciate this. so the question is...is there another simple cisco-vpn client out i've not seen before, because the other two applications have too many disadvantages. thanks a lot,
earp
I also would be interested in any cisco vpn solution, that works...
Did you guys ever find anything?
OpenVPN
If it interests anyone, I've used OpenVPN for a while, and it works great, at least on my KS20.
It's open source and it's not so difficult to install and configure, but admittedly it doesn't work with a Cisco VPN. As SFR in France blocks all ports but 80 and 8080, it allowed me to use MSN and other communication applications (too much lag for Skype) and access my shared files...
You can get it here
I've been looking into this too - we use Cisco AnyConnect VPN at work and it'd be nice to see whether it's available on the HTC.
I'd also be so happy if one of us can find a problemless vpn client. I hate logging in as a guest user everytime to my network.
I have tried Bluefire VPN with success. I had only .pcf file and here is not VPN client on PDA to use with. If you use group password, you have to ask your admin about cleartext password and then you can use VPN for example to your Cisco 3000 VPN concentrator.

OpenVPN-Server -> Cyanogen Mod

Hey Guys,
in germany we just connect (3G) behind T-Mobile NAT. I want to have a fix ip address with dyndns. Behind a NAT this is not possible. Can anybody help me to solve this problem.
is there a possibility to configure a openvpn-server on cyanogen. Have anybody already make this?
In the cyanogen mod 4.1.999 there were following programs: dropbear, openssl and openvpn or were these programs for client mode configuration?
I couldn't find anything for a server mode. I found a openvpn-monitor.apk which doensn't hava a function.
Thanks for help!
You can use dyndns.org to map your current IP to a domain. If your Router supports it, it can do this automatically. If not, you have to manually run an app.

No, only the client binaries are included. If you need a server version for your handset you will need to either compile it yourself or find someone who has done the work for you. But as far as I know there are no ROMs that include those server binaries (except for maybe a copy of sshd).

I guess the router doing the NAT is not located in his living room but in some server room operated by T-Mobile, so port forwarding or something like that is not an option.
I have the same problem at the moment, T-Mobile assigns me a private IP like 10.0.3.21 which cannot be accessed from the internet even with DynDNS or something like that.
If I come to a conlusion that to try to make my SSH accessible from the internet, I will post it, of course.
Hello,
thanks for reply! But i dont wont access my g1 over a home network. When i want to do this, i connect via telnet or something else. Because my router give me a static IP or a static DHCP IP.
I want to access to my g1 over umts (mobile). I have tried to access my g1 with an dyndns app in the market. In the descriptions of the app was a info that says, in germany with t-mobile contract it doesn´t works.
Have anybode compiled a openvpn-server app?
Thanks!
openvpn has just one program for its peer-to-peer, client, and server modes. There is no separate server.

Mount Hero on a wireless network

Hello folks, ive had a scout around but haven't found any answers,
Is it possible for me to mount my Hero via an app etc, onto a wireless network, so I can push files to it OTA?
(only locally, doesnt need to be able to do so when on a different network or 3G)

Might just be because you are wording it as "mount" you need to tether your phone over wireless? search for wireless tether on the forums.
Try Websharing.
if you use mcr you can use scp, also rsync is available for the hero. if you don't know what i am talking about this is probably not the right solution for you (geeky linux commands involved...).
SSH works for me
thanks for these suggestions guys, i am in no way Linux affiliated, so it looks like Websharing all the way, might have to purchase the full version tho
If i was to start looking into Linux instead, would that allow me to see my phone as a simple networked drive?

- get a rom with dropbear (mcr for example) or install dropbear in your rom
- for mcr find your password in settings -> about phone
- find your ip address whichever way you want (about screen, wifi router, adb shell ifconfig)
- continue as you're used to
thats brilliant, thankyou- I am on MCR 3.1 which is handy =]
right, im probably being thick, ive discovered the Hero is using port 2222, and discovered my ip and password, but the username for the device? Im almost there......

You don't need a user name.
Generally the name will just be the name you want to give the preset within your SSH program.
I use WinSCP and all you need to enter is the IP, the port (2222 as you said) and the password within the About Phone section of the settings app.
Also, you need to connect via SCP and not S/FTP.
that'll be it then, i was using a mac and some free program that would only let me FTP, I'll wait until i get home and find something a bit better, thanks for your help-

sry forgot to mention the port... you can set the username in /system/bin/dropbear.sh, but actually it doesn't change anything. you set the userid=0 and are root, that's it.
a new app just got released called Onair that mounts the SD as a network drive, perfect
i use webshare in the market its brillent
