vpn win 8 - Windows 8 General

is wp8 will support VPN ... ???

Yes. I use VPN on my Win8 PC and the test tablet at my work. PPTP/SSTP/ICMP all work.
Haven't tried OpenVPN but should work no issues.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app

I use Shrew VPN....is free and support .pcf files

SInce I use HideIPVPN as my provider I have checked their Windows software yesaterday under W8 Release Preview.
Worked (desktop mode only) exactly as in Win 7.
Log in, choose server from you package - connect.
Netflix and Hulu worked without any problems under Chrome both in Modern UI and Desktop mode (tested only PPTP VPNprotocol but I do not see a reason for L2TP or SSTP not to work).
So, nor problems with VPN and Win 8.
This means I only need VPN on WP8 system as well + Market Enabler (as in Android) and it Christmas for me

+Hey guys
What about Hotspot Shield App !?!?

I dont see any reason why it should not work.
I can test it over the weekend when I reconnect HDD with W8 onboard

HSS works.. but not for the metro apps.

Because HSS only works for browsers as far as I know.
This is why I use VPN - all traffic, regardless of program creating it is directed to VPN server.
This means that I can use Spotify in Poland or watch Netflix on my iPad .
I have checked with W8 and both Chrome and IE in Modern UI mode use VPN as well (they got no choice).
I have read yesterday that WP8 will not support VPN but Secure SSL to access company servers - does any one know it this protocol can be used to change IP of a device? I suppose VPN servers would have to have additional software active to support this kind of connection...

Windows Mobile IPSec VPN?

My phone is really like a small computer (HTC Advantage x7510) and I would really like to be able to connect it to my company's corporate VPN. A typical windows/mac/linux client connects with Cisco's AnyConnect software, and while Cisco released a version of AnyConnect with the iPhone, they didn't for Windows Mobile 6.1. The problem as I understand it is that Windows Mobile natively supports PPTP and L2TP/IPSec connections while the Cisco implementation wants pure IPSec. The authentication scheme that we use is certificate based and then user/pass based. I created a user certificate on my desktop and then exported it to a .pfx (PKCS #12 Container) file and then imported it on my mobile device.
I have tried The Green Bow, but I have been unable to get this to work... The app seems rather buggy and I can't even save off the log properly to find out why it isn't working.
http://www.thegreenbow.com/mobile.html
Bluefire seemed like it would do the trick, but after I tell it what Certificate to use and click Finish, it tosses out an error: "An internal error has occurred while processing your request. Please contact the system administrator". It appears that Bluefire Security has disappeared, at least from the web.
Anatha VPN seemed like it would be an option, however the UI seems buggy because I can't get the dropdowns to work in the configuration (using any DPI setting in realvga). Either the Gateway dropdown or the Gateway Type dropdown do not work... it varies.

Does anyone have a solution? Free or commercial... doesn't matter.
Latest version of NCP VPN works very very well for Cisco IPSec, you can download a trial version which is valid for a few days. not buggy, but commercial....

I am not sure who told you there wasn't a Windows Mobile version of the Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client because there is. There are Windows versions, Intel & PowerPC Mac OS X versions, Linux versions and Windows Mobile 5/6 versions available. I can't however see an iPhone version.
The current version for all platforms is 2.3.0254. The release notes are here:

AnyConnect VPN Client is available for WM Pro, but it does not support IPSec...
The Anyconnect from Cisco doesnt work with the concentrators.

No it doesn't. The 3000 series concentrators have been EOL for a while. The AnyConnect client is for use with IOS Routers and ASA Firewalls (plus the PIX but this is EOL as well). You can use the native L2TP/IPSec client in WM5/6 with the 3000 Concentrator though (as you can with IOS & the ASA).

We have a trial mobile agent setup and I have anyconnect installed and configured on my phone. I am able to establish a VPN over HSPDA and I can hit internal web pages via IE, but I am unable to RDP or SSH anywhere. Is anyone using anyconnect and able to do these things?

I know this is really old, but I was looking for some ipsec stuff for home. However I do use AnyConnect for SSL work vpn and I can RDP and SSH just fine.
The AnyConnect SSL Mobile client works great with the ASA 5500's. Does anyone know what it takes to fool the router into thinking a mobile device is not VPN'ing in? You need a Windows Mobile AnyConnect license installed to make the Windows Mobile client connect. We do not own any at the moment and I'm eager to see it work.
Ok I've got my ASA 5510 working perfectly using Windows Mobile and Bluefire IPSec vpn. We normally run SSL Vpn but keep Ipsec open for site to site VPN as well as mobile VPN. I got a quote on Cisco SSL AnyConnect mobile licenses on the firewall and they are $100 a pop. But if you're looking for a great IpSec client that works go with Bluefire...

[Q] Setting up a VPN that my xoom can access.

I want to set up a VPN at home that my xoom can access. I tried a simple PPTP with dd-wrt but I can't seem to access or ping anything, even though it connects. I want to do this so I don't have to forward SSH, RDP, and other ports that expose my stuff to the outside world.
At home I am running a DD-WRT gateway with a linux server as well as a Windows Server 2008 VM behind the gateway, any could host the VPN service.
I don't need instructions on how to set up the VPN, but advice on what is compatible with android's built in VPN support.
Thanks in advance for any input.

The windows vpn service works fine for me
I was under the impression I needed to set up a domain to use the included windows VPN service, and I wasn't looking to set up a domain.
Is this an incorrect assumption?

Here's a link to getting OpenVPN working. Must admit it looks like it's not for everyone.

That was not necessary for me. If it is a requirement, it is specific to Windows Server edition
I have a Windows PPTP VPN that my Xoom can connect to. You do not need to set up a domain.
Unfortunately there is a bug in Android that makes it lose connection to the VPN after a few minutes/seconds.
See here:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4706
I just bypass androids native VPN and use Neo Router free. Available in the market. You just set up a Neo server on the computer you want to control and use the android app to open an encrypted connection to that computer. You can set up the app to forward any ports to the computer running the server. Works well. Right now im running splashtop remote and plex using it so i dont have to port forward the ports for those apps in my router.
Thanks for all the input. I am working on OpenVPN. I almost have it working (I already have my router set up for OpenVPN, just didn't know I could use it).

[Q] Are there ANY builds for the Nook Color with working VPN?

I know this bug was filed in April 2011:
http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=3353
As far as I know, VPN has never worked on the Nook Color. I know there has been new splash screens or pretty wallpapers added, but I don't know of anything changed with VPN. I can watch anime and play video games, but I can never connect to my office to work on a server.
CyanogenMod 7.0, 7.1, 7.2: try to connect to VPN = hard lock.
CyanogenMod 9.0: try to connect to VPN = always fails.
PPTP or L2TP, it's always the same.
I'm guessing when CyanogenMod 10 comes out, VPN will still not work.
Is there any build of any version of Android that works on the Nook Color that allows for a VPN connection to be established?
It's the same with my HP TouchPad. VPN always fails.

Are you stuck with VPN and cannot use an SSH client like ConnectBot?

I've never thought of myself "stuck" with VPN. I just click "connect" and it works. Usually.
Windows - connects to our L2TP and Cisco IPSec devices.
Mac OS X - connects to our L2TP and Cisco IPSec devices.
iOS - connects to our L2TP and Cisco IPSec devices.
Android (Nook Color, HP TouchPad) - no connection possible!
I use iTap/RDP, iTeleport/VNC, and local Intranet web pages.
All those work over SSH?
I didn't intend "stuck" to be pejorative, but lots of places (like where I work) offer both VPN and SSH access.
As for services, I use ConnectBot's SSH tunnels for VNC, email, chat, etc.

I've yet to find a build that works with the Cisco AnyConnect client, and I've been trying.
The latest CM7 kang build works with VPNs, udp, tdp, etc. perfectly.
It's already configured in the code to work, but you need to download this:

work around for 3rd party vpn for remote desktop

Hi Everyone,
I am seeking advice and/or feedback. Lack of 3rd party vpn (Juniper in my case) is really frustrating me. I know about TeamViewer, Remote Desktop, and the LogMeIn solutions available. Part of my problem is that I do not have local admin access to my work computer.
The desktop app for TeamViewer will launch on my work PC, and it will allow for remote connections, but this is pretty clearly commercial usage of the product, and therefore would require buying a terribly expensive license.
Here's what I'm thinking.
* Install Windows 7 on a virtual machine on an HTPC that is on 24/7.
* Install TeamViewer desktop app on the Win7 VM. (connecting to my personal, home network would not be commercial use)
* While connected to my VM, connect to my work VPN server and then launch RDP to my work computer.
Thoughts? Will this be too laggy?
An alternative would be to use Putty/RDP (jailbreak required) to connect to my HTPC via ssh tunnel and then connect to the VPN server.
Until a native VPN client is provided, I think I will need to do this two step process...
Any feedback is appreciated....

I've used this method:
- a 24/7 nettop at home with Windows 7 and a public IP address. Nettop allows incoming RDP connections.
- a VPN client on that nettop that allows connection to my office. I'm using ShrewSoft VPN as it is compatible with our VPN and it works fine through an RDP session.
- an RDP client on my phone or WinRT tab
When I need to connect to my workplace - I RDP into my home nettop, establish a VPN connection on it, then run RDP client on nettop to connect to my work PC. Speed is fine.
Long time ago I was thinking about making an app based on the OpenVPN sources that would not require any drivers. That app would allow you to make a tunnel to the specified port of a specified IP inside your work network - similar to SSH tunneling. But this is just an idea - would never have time to work on it.

Ahh! i spent many a day in talks with Juniper right up to a roundtable of management about a 64bit VPN client not being available. In the process of investigating the replacement i found Shrewsoft VPN http://www.shrew.net/download/vpn
It will connect to your juniper and they also provide a guide on how to do so. If you get stuck let me know and i can share some of my config. I use this successfully on both 32 and 64bit wind7/win8. In fact i just finished installing and using it on my new ASUS VivoTab Smart.
Could anyone provide me with a lot of assistance? I've been very interested in using a VPN for my computer and phone for awhile, as well as a proxy, and other means of privacy. I just get lost in a sea of information, I just want reliable, secure. I mean, I want to make sure the government of Japan can't track me down (example obviously).

check out pirate bay, they have a vpn recommended but it's not like your site to site vpn. you could then use something like proxys.org and proxy through that then you'll be annonymised by the vpn and again by the proxy.

Thanks. I've done something similar, and it seems to be working fine. I don't have dedicated hardware, so I've used a vm, but speed is working ok.

VPN App for windows phone 8/8.1

hi there i need a vpn app like hotspot shield or betternet app available for android , ios etc .. is there any free vpn app available for windows phone 8/ 8.1 ??
In addition to having built-in support for a few kind of VPN (assuming you have, or can set up, a server), there are also many apps to help you connect through a VPN. I think all the apps are free, though an account on the VPN server might not be.
You can search the WP store online. For example, http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/search?q=vpn
