I am searching for an Cisco VPN client for the DHD. I am new to the whole Android world and very interested in buying the DHD. But in order to use a wireless internet connection at my university I have to use a Cisco VPN client. But as far as I know there is no official client from Cisco for Android yet. Is there any other possibility to access the VPN with the DHD?
Can nobody help me? Somebody told me that there is a possibility when the device is rooted with a special script. I just don't want to buy an iPhone

Does anyone know:
Is it possible to do Group Authentication with the built-in VPN client? My work network uses a Cisco VPN and I've managed to extract out of our IT department the Group name and Password but I can't figure out how to enter this onto the Exec - it offers me "A certificate on this device" or "A pre-shared key" and entering the password into the pre-shared key doesn't seem to work. Our IT department tells me that the Exec is unsupported and won't give me any help so anyone out there know how to do this?
If it's not possible, anyone recommend a good VPN client for connecting to a Cisco VPN?
Thanks

Anybody?
My work uses group authentication also. Does anyone know a good vpn client that will work with group authentication?
There is a Cisco ICA/Xen/client for ARM PDA here: http://www.citrix.com/English/ss/downloads/details.asp?downloadId=3607&productId=186#top
Is this what you are looking for?
interesting..
I didn't know there was a citrix client for WM. My work also uses citrix. The only problem is in order to connect with the citrix client I must have a VPN tunnel first . My work uses Cisco VPN Group Authentication. I have not yet found a VPN client for WM that will allow Cisco group authentication. If anyone knows of one, PLEASE let me know.
Thanks wovens for the citrix client. That will be neat to try if I can ever get a VPN tunnel setup.
FOUND IT!
I finally found a VPN client that will work with Cisco group authentication. It is Bluefire Mobile Security VPN. One thing I found is that after you connect you must press the END key to get out of the client because pressing the x will kill the client. Works Great!
The only problem is the company went out of business (http://www.bluefiresecurity.com). I was able to find the .cab, but not sure if it is against forum rules to post it... Can a mod please inform me, thx.
Does your company use Cisco SSL Vpn by chance? It's the way Cisco is leaning as is with less support for the ipsec since they can make more money off of licensing.
Anyhow if your company does use SSL VPN, Cisco's anyconnect client supports Windows mobile. I have been using it and it works good for what I use it for (primarily SSH, but for kicks I tried remote desktop and it worked good too).

There are a lot of files, rar files within zip files, but the cab for the vpn client is there, name: MobileVPN.27.5.706.ARM.PPC.Client.cab
I recently purchased a tmobile mda and was trying to access my campus's network. But when I logged on, the only page I could view was about downloading a vpn client for multiple os's (but no windows mobile) to use the network.
Is there a vpn client for windows mobile?
Any help would be great.
Thanks!
There's a built-in client that will handle L2TP and PPTP VPNs. If you go into Settings/Connections and click "Edit my VPN servers" you can configure the client for your VPN. It's worth a try.
Tried that, didn't work... I decided to ask my University about their network, they said it was a cisco 3000 or something... And also informed me that "to their knowledge" the windows mobile 5 built in client isn't compatible...
I then went to the College of computer science help desk to see if some peers could help me. They said someone had bought a $100 program to be able to connect to the concentrator but didn't know who made it or where to get it.
Does anyone know of such a thing? Or a cheaper alternative?
AnthaVPN
I have found AnthaVPN wich is about from 40$ to 100$ depending what you need.
I'm trying also to open VPN without this IMHO too expensive solution. But if it's the only way - then I need to buy....
Maybe some kind of tunneling from own Linux-server (With Swan) might be the free solution....
I have been testing Bluefire Security's VPN and it works great, but my employer is using a Nortel system sio I cannot comment on the Cisco compatibility. It costs $79. I have also tries Antha but is cause problems enabling Wifi and Gprs.

Long time I could’t make connection with the built-in VPN client. After the latest ROM update from Qtek it works (I tested only PPTP). I can make VPN to SBS server and Windows XP. Also I can use Terminal Services true VPN connection.
The only thing I can’t get working is to access network shares (I tried GSFinder+ and NetUse).

HI to all
I am looking for a working VPN Client (the Iphone has one which is working) to connect my Touch Cruise to the intranet of my firm.
I read that NCP has one, but it is quite expensive ...
is there any other solucion?
For free?
Shrew is working fine on my laptop, but y would like to check something out of mi WinMo Polaris.
I actually am using WinMo 6.1 but if necessary I also could change to 6.5
Thanks
Isidar
OpenVPN has a free client for WinMo but I don't know if it will work for your VPN, give it a shot.
you can use hamachi-0.0.3.1
http://rapidshare.com/files/83751409/hamachi-0.0.3.1.rar (for your mobile)
https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/list.asp (for your pc)

i think openvpn is not compatible with cisco vpn since cisco uses ipsec and openvpn uses a simply tunnel created on udp port 1194 (no need for gre,ike,or pptp port's/protocols open).
it's much simpier but work very well and just with the p12 certificate (ok my certificate is 2048bit so i think it is minimally secure, nothing like a dynamic generated rsa key but even better than just a ssh tunnel or something like).
Back in the days of Windows Mobile 2003 I used to use "MovianVPN" to connect to my university network. The software is now superseded by AnthaVPN (www.anthasoft.com). It is designed for Windows Mobile 5 and they have no mention of WM6 compatibility, but I think its worth a shot.
I also read about another product called "Bluefire VPN", but I can't seem to find it online at the moment.
Edit: The above solutions are not free, but the price might be refundable by your company.
Cisco AnyConnect for Pocket PC
There is an application from Cisco itself that you can download and try.
It's based an Cisco's new Anyconnect module
anyconnect-wince-ARMv4I-activesync-2.3.2016-k9.msi
http://cisco.quanza.net/anyconnect-wince-ARMv4I-activesync-2.3.2016-k9.msi
The website http://www.tycoon.mxm.cx/ has a couple of VPN software apps for all OS

The Cisco device at the other end has to be setup for SSL VPN otherwise Anyconnect does not work. This is somewhat new and SSL VPN licenses are expensive.
Personally I use AnthaVPN on my HTC Touch (WinMo 6.1 Pro) and it works great with our IPSec Cisco VPN (the old way since we're too cheap to buy the licenses for the SSL VPN).
EDIT: And if your company is setup for SSL VPN, you should not need to download a client. Your admin should give you a website and it connects to the router/firewall/VPN concentrator and downloads the proper client for you. Better than going to some random site to download something.
The integrated L2TP/IPSec client?
I have posted previously on here about VPN clients and Cisco Routers & Firewalls. The integrated L2TP/IPSec client works with both Cisco PIX/ASA Firewalls as well as IOS Routers - it is dependant on how these are configured though. I posted two configurations from PIX 6.3(5) and PIX 7.2(4) - both of which I had working. It seems there are some limitations when setting up groups however my testing didn't include this.

I was going to test the Group issues someone reported but never got around to it - I have a full-time job as well

Hi guys
Could anyone post the link for Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client 2.5 as it is one of the only vpn client solutions having WM6.5 and Cisco routers work together
Could you propose any other solution for WM6.5 and Group authentication cisco servers
Thanks
I have just downloaded the AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client, v2.5 and it works a treat thanks for this post, it was released in Aug and works with 6.5
Please note, i legally have a CCO account and valid service contracts for Cisco ASA and VPN gateways.
To the previous poster, please buy relevant CCO access to download.
i am trying to get a cisco vpn client
i use android on my hd2 as main os
just got it working and i am happy...
but they are talking about rooted phones
also need to instal busybox, is that a cab like thing or is it hard to instal?
(i saw it in the market but is that the good one)
if someone have any experience with a cisco vpn client on the hd2 android would love to here from you ^^
Hi all,
I have been tinkering with connectivity into my corporate network and so far been able to get a connection to our Office Communicator server via ASProxy and a secure wireless connection. However I am looking for a solution that works across my 3G connection via a VPN.
I have looked at the market place versions of OpenVpn and I cannot get it to work with our Cisco Gateway. I got stuck at the tun and adb part, so not sure what I need to do at this point so though I would ask the experts on here ;-) There has been much work on a very important missing part which was a user authentication proxy, so the next bit for me would be a means of connecting to an IPSec/UDP Cisco VPN Gateway that works with my Domain username and then a fob generated password.
Any help from you guys would be most appreciated and perhaps I can share my ASProxy configuration for anyone wishing to get their's working....
Thanks

Hi,
you can't use an OpenVPN client to connect to a Cisco (IPsec) VPN server.
If you want to connect to an OpenVPN server then you can use OpenVPN Installer and OpenVPN Settings from the market.
If you want to connect to an IPsec server then use the built-in android VPN client or even some proprietary Cisco client from the market... (don't know about these as I only use OpenVPN)
Hi, thanks for the reply, however the built in VPN client will not work with our server. There is a Cisco anyconnect client that does connect, but we need a license for it which we dont currently have.
I will keep trying....
