I have a vpn account from a L2TP/IPSEC VPN Server and use four attributes to connect it from Android or Windows devices: IP Adress, User Name, User Password and PreShared Key. I can connect with these details successfully manually. I also want to connect it programmatically in Android 4.x.
I looked into OrbotVPN and ToyVPN projects but couldn't see any details about connecting to existing VPN server. And I think there must be some configuration(server side code) at the remote point (VPN server) to response requests from clients in these projects. But in default; a L2TP/IPSEC VPN server configured already and ready for connections.
Also googled it, all of them says "VpnService is designed for creating custom-protocol VPN applications" but there is no an example of IPSEC implementation.
Is there any example of IPSEC implementation?

I would like to config my ppc to get online thru my office's internet.
But sadly, my office is using proxy server, a VPN, plus I'm on a domain.
On my ppc, I had applied all the necessary settings on proxy namely
proxy address and port number, and VPN such as site IP, user name and password for our Check point VPN.
On my desktop, the setting is set on The Internet but still failed.
Would it be the fact that I was connected as a "guest" during ActiveSync?
Can anyone shine some light on me please.
MovianVPN
You will probably need to download MovianVPN ($99.95) for use with firewalls other then Microsoft's, which is all the VPN client included with WM2003 supports.
I am trying to set up a vpn connection and can connect to our firewall but I cannot connect to the network. If I try to pin the network it just times out.
The firewall is configured to allow the device through.
Can abyone help with this??
Thanks
Sorry I'm no expert on VPN or much else.
I use Remote Desktop through a router, firewall enabled.
Took a while to get through the firewall until I had set everything up properly.
You have to enable a virtual server port on the router to allow the traffic in, have you set one up and if so the right port number for VPN. From what I have seen its 1723.
Not much help I know, but seach on the internet for help on setting it up correctly, check your settings and double check.
Hi quest,
let me answer some questions to see things more clearly:
1. Do you use built-in (Microsoft) VPN-Client or 3rd party product
2. If Microsoft, what type of VPN did you set up? L2TP or PPTP?
3. If L2TP, how do you authenticate: Preshared Key or Certificate?
4. How do you know that the device connects to your firewall?
5. How do you know that the device doesn't connect to the network?
6. What exactly is the rule permitting your device passing the firewall?
The answers to your questions are:-
We are using the built in MS VPN client of Win Mobile v5.0 (5.1.1700 build 14352.0.1.0)
I have tried both PPTP and L2PT
When L2TP, I was authenticating with a preshared key
Firewall logs show PPTP negotiation successful, and issues a VPN IP address to the device
It can ping the firewall external interface, but times-out trying to reach an internal address
The VPN session is established, but the firewall logs don't register either deny or allow traffic for each internal ping request, rather the firewall packet error count increments for each failed attempt.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I try to establish a vpn connection to our company-VPN.
VPN Gateway is a cisco device. "Normal" connection via notebook with cisco vpn client works.
On my TyTN i installed ncp client. But i dont know how to configure the cisco settings.
On Cisco VPN Client:
- IP Adress of Gateway
- Group Authentication
- Transport IPSec over UDP
On ncp VPN Client:
- IP Adress of Gateway is easy to find
But i cannot assign the other settings. NCP Client has a lot of settings.
Has anybody success to establish vpn connection via windows Mobile to a cisco Gateway ?
Got it. Not the vpn Client was the problem.
The Blackberry connect SW (disabled!) prevented connection via vpn.
Deinstallation of BB Connect und vpn Client from Bluefire works fine.
What did you use as the VPN client to connect into the cisco gateway?
Do you use a RSA secureID token?
I am tring to get a VPN connection running from my HTC p3600i, WM6.
New VPN Client
Since a few days i use another VPN Client: www.ncp.de
Works fine. We do not user RSA Token. Only Group Authentication (free string to identify groups) and XAUTH - user/password.

Can you write your settings? I can't configre this
Any ideas on a MPPE PPTP VPN via WM6? I have been trying to get this to work for months and can't. I am operating under the presumption that the VPN client in WM5/6/6.1 doesn't support MPPE and I am therefor up S#!T creek without a 3rd party dialer...
(It is a VPN connection to my work and yes as sorry as this is they still use an encrypted PPTP connection for all of their VPN connections. If they would just move on to something a LITTLE more current L2TP/IPsec I wouldn't be having any of these problems...)
But is there such a thing as a 3rd party PPTP VPN client for WM5/6/6.1 I haven't been able to find one...
TIA~

New(ish) Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client
Cisco have released an AnyConnect VPN client for Windows Mobile 5/6 (version 2.3.185). This is specifically targetted towards the ASA 5500 platform as the VPN server, however it should also work with IOS VPN devices (I am told?).
I haven't tried it, however I have seen it demonstrated and it all seemed to work.
Personally I prefer the integrated L2TP/IPSec VPN client and have posted previously on how to get this working with Cisco PIX 6.3, ASA/PIX 7.x and IOS devices.
Andy
AnyConnect VPN client will support only SSL VPN, that avaiable on Cisco ASA and IOS from 12.4(20)T or later.
Can I have two VPN connections to two different places on the same computer?
I work at two different medical facilities. I have a VPN connection to one and I'm trying to set up one for the other. When I'm in the New Connection Wizard and I pick "automatically dial connection", it makes me pick the medical facility that I already had on the computer to "automatically dial" when trying to create this new one.
cool vpn has given the users privilege to surf internet with freedom and security Thanks to VPN
Hi,
I have a HP Ipaq 210 series PDA with WM6 and trying to get OpenVPN to work for allowing me to connect the our university network.
After presenting my user data, OpenVPN says "connected" and displays the green symbol. Nevertheless my browsers (PIE, Opera Mobile) or any other internet app is able to "go outside".
Do I have to tell Windows or the browser to use the VPN-tunnel anyhow? I just don't know how to proceed.
Any information that could help me?
Kind regards,
roke
Can somebody please at least indicate how the configuration in the windows connection manager should be? ISP/work and so on? network device should connect to work/ISP? Configuration of OpenVPN: Use connection manager? On which network? Exclusive? ...
I just don't know what else I can do. The admins responsible for the VPN are bloody amateurs and don't know anything about windows mobile...
Help me please...
Regards,
roke
I have not tried openvpn on the ppc, but i run some openvpn connections for my company.
The openvpn server is configured to push the various parameters to the client, essentially that is the ip address ranges which should pass through the vpn and any DNS servers. (Excepted for bridged mode, where the ipaddress will be in the same subnet as the main site.)
From the Openvpn web site :"By default, when an OpenVPN client is active, only network traffic to and from the OpenVPN server site will pass over the VPN. General web browsing, for example, will be accomplished with direct connections that bypass the VPN." Why would you want it any other way?
What is it that is not working?
Can you access the sites and resources with the openvpn connection?
Can you access the sites on the openvpn server side by ipaddress?
Regards

Hi
I know Android has its own built-in VPN client but I would like to create my own VPN client to connect to our VPN server as I would like to add an extra layer of security on it. Can anyone help me out please?
Maybe just some guide on how to create a VPN profile using the built-in Android client programmatically (of course without accessing the hidden API) or something equivalent? Specifically I want to create a VPN profile with IPSec Xauth RSA Authentication.
