I've been running different builds of Cyogenmod7 for quite a while & I can't get VPN (PPTP or OpenVPN) to work through the Cyogenmod settings or with 1VPN. I can, however, get it a VPN to run with OpenVPN Settings (from the market). However, OpenVPN settings is a bit of a pain since I have to enter in my username/password everytime I connect.
Anyone know how to either have OpenVPN settings remember my username/password or know of a rom that works with 1VPN?
Thanks!
I gave up on trying to get VPN to work, ended up being more of a pain then was worth it. I instead setup an SSH server on my Home computer and connect to it using ConnectBot app. Using Port Forwarding in the app I can access pretty much whatever I would of wanted to on a VPN like VNC, SMB, Upnp Media Server, ect... Everything done over the SSH is Encrypted as well so you could use it even on an Open/Public WiFi connection without fear. Only thing I have yet to try to do is forward Internet Browsing over the SSH connection, would probably require me to setup a Proxy server on the PC.

Hey all,
i have a Cisco VPN profile consisting of the following:
VPN HOST
VPN Groupname
VPN Grouppassword
VPN Username
VPN Userpassword
Search Domain
On my Nexus i use CM RC3 with Open VPN, BUT:
Where do i enter those credentials in the OpenVPN settings exactly?
Can anyone guide me through?
THANX
Tigger
You could try this app:
http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/
I haven't had much luck with it, the domain setting doesn't seem to work for me.
I'll post more detail later when I'm near a full size keyboard.

THX, gonna try this
Edit:
i was able to establish a connection, but only via WiFi, not via EDGE
What can i do about this issue?
Also, this whole thing is totally unstable...
Edit 2:
i was able to set up a connection ONCE... but never again =(
There is an app called vpn connections that I'm use fairly regularly to connect to a cisco vpn. It might be worth a try.
i did. the result is above your post -.-
no one to help me with this? =/
**UP**
still noone?
recently i installed the last eclair kernel from Dalingrin (2/25/11), which among other great things, implements netfilter/iptables
i was able to install both TransProxy and AsProxy, but since i need ntlm authentication to connect to the internet in my office, only AsProxy would be useful for me, but when i hit the start button, it says that the iptables were not found.
has anyone been able to connect to the internet thru a proxy server (in my case an ISA Server), with any of the above mentioned programs or another one?
Have you gotten your iptables to show up yet?
I havent gone the route of ROM yet but I probably will have too. I have asproxy and Orbot (TOR client) installed but without iptables they are useless.

I have the same issue too. Peharps Dal could compile the Kernet to support iptables.
What I had to do for this is set up OpenVPN... Violates my work policy, but oh well. Couldn't figure out how to get it set up any other way.
Technically I did set up an access point on a CentOS box with a transparent proxy, but that doesn't handle syncing which I need at work as I use my tablet during meetings and need to have my schedule up to date etc..
Did you heard about Honeycomb 3.1? Now you can set up proxy and user/psw on the wifi configuration. Nice.. It should be very nice if CM7 got this too...
now a day i m in hostle and new to android
in hostle i have to use proxy server over wifi
i have searched but could not find a better solution
if any one using it plzzzzzzzzzzzz help me
have used trans proxy for this there is a requirement for iptables/netfilter and rooted device i have rooted the g1 but i dont know how to use iptables/netfilter
suugest me any rom which gives wifi option in contex menu or support iptables/netfilter

wht is that how to use it????
well..
it is in the Wireless settings section. i guess you should use L2 IPSec.
briefly: have to set up a VPN server/connection point at home or wherever, and you'll connect to that from anywhere given that there's an open outbound port to the internet where you are currently. than a connection will be built up creating a "tunnel" through which your packets will be transferred to the VPN host where itt could be routed and NAT-ed to the internet unrestricted.
adding IPSec or other methods of encryptions will make your connection secure.
i've never tried it on my phone but since its based on linux it must be the same way as at desktop system.
you should check documents and howtos on the internet and check for apps at Market if the androids builtin is not satisfying!

A good application for Android remote control from PC?
I've tried "Droid VNC Server (Beta) and "Remote Control Add-on"
both of them works but have a problem viewing the screen.. phone capture commands but can't see android desktop on my pc..
I rooted both applications with Superuser without success..
Any Help?
I'm on Nova HD Plus Rom
I tried lots of apps. But nothing works as good as teamviewer.
Install pc version and the android app.
Set unattended axx on your pc.
Whitelist your android ID.
This hs never failed me. Mouse keyboard dual monitor setup... It just works
Hmmmm read again lol and think you want it the other way around...
Sorry haven't tried that

You can try our new VMLite VNC Server app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vmlite.vncserver&hl=en
so far, it works on many different models of android devices, rooting is not required.

Can it be ROM related ? on my phone the server can't use wifi connection, and sets the IP of the server on my 3G provider one which not very useful, and generally doesn't work for me.
I'd like to have my phone screen on my tablet or my computer
There might be a bug for our app to report the wifi ip address, we are fixing this. For the time being, you can do one of these:
(1) find the wifi ip address from settings, and you can connect to this ip address instead of the one reported by vmlite vnc server app
(2) use USB connection, from VMLite Android App Controller, click USB Connect button
(3) reverse connection, run tight vnc viewer in listening mode, then start vnc server in reverse mode, so the server will connect to the client

First solution worked great thks !
I have seen a lot of people wondering about how to use your phone's vpn in pc. If you're one of them, than keep reading.
To do this you do not need root
Works on any computer OS
Works on home wifi or data hotspot
When your PC is connected with your WiFi or hotspot, it's sends all the request directly, regardless of your phone's vpn, wheather it is on or off. When you turn on the phone's VPN, all the traffic from your phone goes through the VPN, and we have to divert your PC's traffic through the same route.
There are a lot of different ways to do this, but we will use proxy method.
Download an app called proxy server (<1MB), you can find it in PlayStore or here on XDA. Or any other app would do, it just needs to have the capability to create a proxy server.
So (for Proxy server app) all you have to do is (first time setup)-
Open the app.
Click on the add button at the top, give it a name.
Remember the port and go back.
On the dialogue, click save.
Click on Info at the top, note the wifi ip, go back.
Click on Start at the top to start the server.
Go to PC's browser (or network proxy, if you want to tunnel everything) settings.
Put the proxy server ip (the wifi ip noted earlier) and the port.
Turn on your phone's VPN
Enjoy :good:
If you're using hotspot, go to pc's network settings or ipconfig (google if you don't know how) to find out the gateway, that will be your proxyserver ip.
Just in case it seems to be a lot of steps, know that, you only have to setup once, after that its pretty much start and stop on both your phone and PC. I have an addon installed in my browser (proxy toggle) so basically it's a single-click step.
I'm no scientist, so I don't know all the billions of methods to do this, but this is just a good old method that's going unnoticed somehow. I'm just trying to help people here by sharing it here. If you already knew it, good for you. If you didn't, congratulations and good luck.
:good:
Please

I think it'd be better if you go watch a video on YouTube, explaining "what is a vpn" . If I try to explain you here, chances are you're going to get confused even more.

Start VPN in phone
Start proxyserver app in phone
Set the proxy IP and port in your PC browser
It's a 3 step process. If you still need help, you should ask more specifically, a generic "more explanation needed" doesn't pin point where should I start.
