Accessing Citrix through Citrix Secure Gateway

Hi,
Im experiencing trouble accessing www.haltonvpn.co.uk through my Vodafone v1640.
This links to our CSG box to allow me access to a Citrix session through terminal services.
The link works fine through my XDA using GPRS, but i get a white screen on the universal.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance,

Ok,
After lengthy discussions with our account manager at Vodafone, it would seem that the standard IE browser that ship has some faults accessing Https:// sites (such as internet banking). Obviously this isnt acceptable for what we need!
I'll let this board know when the faults are resolved. Hopefully i may be able to post a flash which fixes these problems.
I have installed netfront browserwhich seems to aleviate some of the problems, but it is still definitely no where near useable!
I'll let you know how i get on.

why you do not install the ICA client for winCE?
- You have to download the newest version in english provided from Citrix
- don't forget the installation of your certificate on the pda
- configure your WinCE-ICA-client like the Win32-ICA
This is a well running solution for me and my colleagues! OK it's not really easy to configure the client, but your admins will assist you!

I tried that today, but couldnt access the link to our external facing Citrix Secure Gateway because its a Https:// site!

hi Mike,
this should not be a problem! The CSG beyond the IIS is the point! And you're able to configure the ICA-client to use https! How i mentioned above, the configuring of the client isn't simple.
Perhaps some steps to configure the WinCE client!
1) don't forget the certifiate, suggest you've installed the client
2) create a new connection (the next points are reachable at creation or with button edit)
3) goto edit firewall settings, enter the FQN URL from the csg and the port, per default it's 443
4) goto edit options, session reliability MUST be turned OFF - this is really important because of the actual csg DON'T support this feature
5) goto server settings:
-select protocol SSL/TLS+HTTPS
-enter the INTERNAL FQN URL of a internal citrix server, it is really important to enter the complete FQN URL = DNS name
-now you should be able to refresh the servers-list also the PA-List, if you're not: enter the server-name or the PA-name manually
ready steady go!
hope you understand all the it-stuff, if not: write a new post

We have it working
It seems that you cannot even access the Page
This means you need to install the certificate
Login and you will see the Icons irrespective of whether you have the Client or not You will just be able to download the ICA files instead of launching it
The ICA Installation put some files in \windows\startup that needs to be removed
Further almost no Config should be done on the Client side
PIE and Opera 8.50 works
get used to squinting and working in akward places!!!! 8)
Regards Frikkie

I tried accessing the Page and can get to the login screen - I see that you are using a Public CA , so the certificate are already trusted. If the problem is further on , it might be that you are accessing the access center which uses activeX controls not supported by WinCE,
We got around that by makng a seperate Page for PDA that only uses CSG and not access center
Hope this helps - let us know exactly where you get stuck!
Regards
Frikkie

I cant even access the link www.haltonvpn.co.uk
Whenever i enter this link i just get a blank white screen on the V1640.
It works fine on my XDA but not on the V1640.
Vodafone told me that they couldnt help me and that QTEK couldnt help either as we havent bought 50 devices!
Any thoughts would be most useful

WM 5.0 VPN Client from Bluefire

Hello,
on my search for a VPN Client for WM 5,0 I finally
found one. It´s Only a Trial-version but however it is the
only version i found that will be able to run under WM 5.0. If you know still different VPN software, which runs also under WM 5.0 please post it!
https://locustpoint1.bluefiresecurity.com/support/WM5_VPN/Bluefire Mobile VPN 2.2.0.190 wm5.exe
User: bfdownload
Password: 2$fireblue
Much fun!

Password not woring :-(
would like to try if possible..

Oh, they have closed the Download-Page...
See attachment!

AnthaVPN is also working on Wm5.
I should have been released a week ago (according to an e-mail I just received), but no info can be found on the website. :-(

This is interesting. I tried Cisco VPC, Antha VPN and Bluefire VPN on my Jasjar and in all cases the programm blocks both the phone mode and the GPRS/UMTS mode, even when the programm is switched off.
Only deleting the programm completely will restore both radio functions.
Any other experiences?

Can you explain where and how you installed the program and and how you configured the settings. :lol:
Thanks

I installed the EXE downloaded in this thread; I used the usr/pwd (demo account) above.
The configuration reflects the params of my company's VPN (group, user, ike, IPSec...).

a little question...
does the 3 party vpn replace the ¨built in¨ vpn?
I use it with exceptions and my companies intranet adressers and servers..in the "connects to work" settings.
so if I installs a vpn from another company can use them settings there or how does the internet explorer or outlook connect to my intra net??
manually is not an optiion i think!!

I received anthavpn beta version 5.8 for the WM2005, installed it on my JASJAR and I had to deinstall as I can't power ON the WLAN/WIFI. As d.zee, deleting the program WLAN/WIFI works on its normal behaviour...
Has anybody received also this beta version and played with it successfuly?

I had trouble installing bluefire to my SD card. Once the install was complete, it created a directory in my device called \Storage Card and renamed my SD to \Storage Card2. As you can imagine, this caused some issues. I had to go into and edit the registry and update the log file paths to \Program Files, remove the \Storage Card directory, and reset the device. Once I did that, my storage card came back, and I was still able to use the bluefire client.
Not sure if this helps anyone.

unstalling VPN BlueFire
Just to let you know, folks.
Unistalling Bluefire from an SD card is quite a nightmare.
I tried doing it from the "remove programs" on the JJ and from the ActiveSync removal tool... but no way..
When I contacted somebody from Bluefire I was answered that there was a problem with SD cards, that the problem was explained in the product documentation -never saw it when downloading the demo- and that their recommendation was to uninstall the software by hard resetting the machine!!...
A suggestion from the Support guy was to install it again -on the device- and the uninstall the whole thing... he was not sure it would clean the registry, etc.
Just to let you know

Funambol Open Source Push Mail

Has anyone ever tried this out?
I am not sure if you need to install the server application on you workstation or on the actual exhange server. Would like to give it a go, as my company I work for is so slow in implementing any kind of mobile mail acess (we will have WM10 with 8mp camera pocket pcs before my work has mobile mail access). :shock:

you could try intellisync Wireless email http://www.intellisync.com/pages/Products/Express/
I have a similar problem with my company being a bit slow on the uptake...this works perectly...really pleased.
You install an application on your desktop and on the device (all very simple) The desktop app syncs your mail etc to a webserver, then the app on the universal connects to the webserver and sync it down onto the device. Very slick. Bear in mind that you have to leave your desktop logged in to your corporate network all the time, which isn't a problem for me as locking the pc doesn't affect the functionality.

I have seen that, but I don't want to use 6 different programs and places to sync. My dad has Intellisync Mobile Suite 6.2 on his Jam and works like a charm, but I can't get my hands on the original installation package.
I can access my work's e-mail via the web through webmail, but I don't know the settings like port numbers etc to get my Jam configured to connect. Is there anyway one can find out these settings without asking IT, as they are still testing it and won't give it to me at this stage.
Surely if you can connect to webmail (exchange), then my Jam should be also be able to connect. Imate Mail also uses webmail and it works on the JAM.

Not sure what you mean...there's one app on the pc and one on the ppc.

I was just being sarcastic.
I know on 2 apps, but you still have a "middleman" where you data needs to be sync from the pc, then from there to the ppc, back to the web server and again back to the pc. I want to go straight to the exhange server, which I should be able to do if I can get my work's webmail settings.

I see! Have you looked at xmail from o2...similar but your ppc connects directly to the agenct on the desktop...

it does
it works so far, but it is a pain to configure.
i hooked it up to my mail server.
with the admin tool you need to (under win or x) configure a user, device and principal and there you go.
what the manual does not tell you: you have to replace PipelineManager with PipelineManagerGeneric in ds-server/config/Funambol.xml to get it to work with your IMEI, or configure your device with IMEI syncml ..
It smashes my funny german umlauts, though. There is a patch (already included in Funambol) that should configure my internal storage to use utf-8, still its using internal iso-8859-15 (what ever that is for..)
I didn't get it to Unicode until now..
I have not tried to connect it to my mail server.. and i have not tried push email yet..

I managed to get exhange activesync to work. But since last night I can't get internet access via GPRS and this morning I can't get VPN access. No nothing wants to work anymore.
Looks like I have to reload my ppc and start from scratch, I have checked all my settings and see nothing wrong.

So I reloaded my Jam this weekend, connected to the work's mail server via GPRS and got my stuff.
Came to work this morning, changed nothing on the pc's settings, plugged in my Jam via USB, pressed sync and it connect without giving me any funny error messages that I got on Friday.
It is weird that it works now with the same setttings and now juts because I reloaded my Jam, it works. :x

help with funambol
trying to get funambol to work on my xda iis 2003se, anyone else got it working with the push email ive set it up how the guide says but i dont get where the log in info goes for it to get your email. anyone willing to do a step by step walk through.

PPC 6700 Unable to Map Drives

I have had the same problem with my PPC 6700 running WM5 and WM6.
I have installed the HTC Network Plugin CAB. I can see the servers on my network (all thru WIFI). When I select the server, it prompts me for my user ID, Password, and Domain (click save password). I click OK and it comes back requesting login info again and again and again.......
I have the same issue from Pocket File Explorer when I open a path to the //server/share!!!!!
I have a Dell X30 running WM 2003 SE and I can access all of my shares with no problems on the same network!!!!!
What am I doing wrong?

I upgraded my PPC-6700 to WM6 and could not access my shares. When I reflashed to WM5 I was able to access some of the shared folders i.e. small folders.
On folders with many files I got "out of resources" messages which seems to be a different issue.
Flashing back to WM6 and I get the same User ID/password/domain and I use my Username/password and get cannot connect error. I am on a workgroup and don't run a domain. I've checked my folder permissions and they are set correctly. I have searched all over and it seems many people have the same issue with WM6 but I have seen no solution. However since I have got my USB connection working with "Enhanced Network Functionality" I haven't been too concerned about connecting through the network shares.

Try doing it without saving the password. Works for me on WM6 connecting to a vista PC. It is REALLY slow. Once mapped, it works fine.

GoToMyPC Pocketviewer

Has anybody managed to get this to work on the Touch HD?
I login to my account via Opera and it downloads the standard desktop client instead of Pocketviewer. Obvously this is because opera is not presenting itself as a PocketPC.
The phone does not seem to have PIE installed so i cannot use that to remote desktop.
Any Ideas?

Hi I use UltraVNC on my Desktop and Notebooks and have discovered VNC for Windows Mobiles from Mochasoft works pretty good.
Cheers
Alan

I have figured it out. Although PIE is not in the all programs in the start menu you can find it by clicking all programms in the Programs tab of touchflo.
From PIE you can log onto your account and pocketview installs.
Once in pocketview you can create a shortcut and map that to one of the programme buttons in the programme tab.
All works great!
