[req] "Best" VPN solution? - General Questions and Answers

Hi fi all di readas.
Notice the quotation marks on the title please...
So... my favourite would be OpenVPN (because it is the fastest and seems also the most secure) and it is well configured on my laptop. But I am unable to configure it on my pda. Copied the files from laptop to pda but no luck and I really do not know the bugs and weaknesses of the CE version. So I just gave up.
I also tried bluefire but I did not understand the server side (hardware router-based server?). Also gave up
And of course the first ever I tried was the CE built-in one. No luck.
So... (again) what are you using?
I am not a programmer, just a poweruser btw.

I believe there is native support for a PPTP VPN, right?

Yes there is but I cannot get it to run.

Dial-up Networking Via Bluetooth Under WM5 AKU3 / WM6: WORKING at last!! A MUST!!!

Anyone having read my article New dial-up networking model of the WM5 AKU3 – a must if you use your WM phones as modems knows WM5 AKU3 (and, of course, WM6) has dramatically changed the way dial-up networking is handled – not necessarily in the good direction. (Please DO read the article if you don’t have a clue what I’m referring to and you would ever want to use your Windows Mobile handheld as a cellular modem!)
Microsoft, so far, haven’t really done anything to the problem, except for publishing an article (also discussed for example HERE). Therefore, hackers needed to concentrate their forces on solving the problem. After the first failed attempts (for example mine, as is explained in the first-linked article), at last, some excellent XDA-Developers folks have managed to enable this feature with a comparatively easy-to-do hack. I’ve developed the hack further, making it compatible with several handheld models and ROM versions (the previous version available at XDA-Developers doesn’t support the Universal, Wizard and, probably, several other models because it doesn’t do any forced Registry import – it might only be compatible with the P3600.)
The hack makes it possible to use most WM5 AKU3 / WM6 devices in the traditional (pre-WM5 AKU3) DUN dial-up method, in addition to the new, in WM5 AKU3 introduced Internet Sharing.
This means you can use BOTH technologies and can have the advantages of BOTH approaches. With the “traditional” DUN dial-up, you still have the freedom of NOT having to manually start / reconnect Internet Sharing AND the ability to use clients not supporting the BT Personal Area Network (PAN) profile required by the new Internet Sharing. And, as Internet Sharing is still supported, you can still have a real internet sharing approach, making it possible to use the Internet on both the Windows Mobile device acting as a modem and the client that connects to it (and can still have the other goodies Internet Sharing also offers: for example, the accessibility of the phone even with an ongoing Internet session.)
Again, it’s almost impossible to emphasize how important, how revolutional this hack is! If you’ve EVER tried to use your WM5 AKU3 / WM6 Windows Mobile phone as a modem you know Internet Sharing can be a REAL pain in the back, particularly if the client you’d like to use it from doesn’t support BT PAN.
Installation
Import THIS registry import file (via, say, the brand new, EXCELLENT desktop-side Registry editor of SOTI’s Pocket Controller 6) and copy the contents of THIS file to the \Windows directory of your Windows Mobile device. Soft reset your device and voliá: after this, clients discovering the Bluetooth services your device provides will also see it offering the DUN service (in addition to the PAN one) as can also be seen in HERE.
After this, everything will work just great – as in the pre-AKU3 days. Follow for example THIS tutorial on using DUN modems if you don’t know how it’s done.
Problems
It’s incompatible with some HTC Wizard ROM versions, namely, the official AKU 3.3 T-Mobile ROM – see THIS. It, however, has no problems with mfrazzz's XDA Mobile 6 Release 2a Full at all.
It seems it’s incompatible with WM6 MS Smartphones (Windows Mobile Standard). I’ve tested this on my HTC Vox (S710).
Compatibility
In my tests, it worked just great on my HTC Universal (WM6 Midget version) and HTC Wizard (WM6 mfrazzz version 2a). A lot of people have reported other success stories; for example, with the AKU3 HTC Trinity (P3600).
Verdict
Again and again: if you EVER plan to use your handheld as a modem, this hack is a MUST!
Linux and Bluetooth DUN hack
I have verified that this hack works on XDA6R2a. I encourage all to implement it. I have a few cheap $5 bluetooth dongles that refuse to use internet sharing because they all have the same mac id (11:11:11:11:11:11)....but they will connect fine using bluetooth dun which doesn't care about the mac id....my linux laptop was able to connect fine using Bluetooth DUN and my desktop which has a more expensive bluetooth dongle (translation: Not a cheap chinese copy) was able to still use internet sharing with no problem.
For rom cookers..the exe and both dll's can be upx'd and get roughly a 50% compression rate. I've tested the compressed files and they still work fine. For those installing in their existing rom and wanting to save space, make sure you compress before you install the registry and reboot as your two dll's will be in use after that.
This will be built into XDA Mobile 6 Release 3 for the Wizard (in Beta now and testing this feature and the other new features in this rom). Thanks for providing this info!
UPDATE (07/29/2007): I've tried to extract the DUN-related files from my WM5 AKU3 HTC Oxygen (s310) smartphone and put them on my WM6 HTC Vox (they are available HERE; I've also provided two Registry import files in the archive. The first, SPRegImp.reg, contains the original S310 Registry contents; the second, SPRegImp2.reg, has a much bigger HKLM\SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ATCIUI\ Connections section).
Unfortunately, while, as opposed to the original case of trying to apply the PPC files, where not even the DUN service could be discovered, it seems it doesn't work: while the DUN service is already visible (as opposed to the original case using the PPC files), on my Vox, connection attempts fail with the same message as not importing the (original) Registry file on the Pocket PC.
I continue playing with the hack; hope I manage to achieve something. I still give you the extracted files so that you can also experiment with them. It MIGHT be working on your non-Vox Smartphohe.
Not works on WM5 TyTN - ROM 2.11.258.1
I followed the istructions of first post...
I tried to import the regitry key but PHMRegitryEditor returns me an error.
Then I put the 4 files in \Windows folder too
but nothing works...
Any idea to re-enable DUN on WM5 Hermes?
P.S.
neither "BT_DUN.cab", nor "WM6_BT_DUN.cab" (I found them on XDA Forum) works on WM5 Hermes

Plase do follow my earlier articles - in the Registry Editor Bible ( http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/UltimateRoundupOfRegistryEditors.asp ), I've explained why this is happening: PHM isn't compatible with RegEd 5 scripts.
Solution: use Resco.
Some CABs?
I tryed also with SOTI Pocket Controller Pro... Nothing to do!
It shoud be possible create a CAB installer for all devices, without using regitry editors, for this re-enabling operation? I'm not able.
Do you suggest Resco Regitry Editor for this case?

Not that important, as is also pointed out in my related tutorials. If you use *99#, the phone will use the default data account. No need for supplying anything extra.

It' s wrong... If I use only *99#, I'm not able to connect the phone to web...
But if I use the string, I can...
It's strange, but it happens.
Thanks so much for the bringing back the DUN to WM6. I can confirm that this setting works in my X01HT with official Dopod rom. I just use my default dial up string "*99#" for connecting my dell notebook to the internet. Only one thing to alter is the connection speed of my PC. I have to reduce the connection from 115200 to 19200 bps in order to have a stable connection.
One more thing to ask is when my DUN link is up, my phone's status display will not show any sign of a GPRS or EDGE connection as if there is no connection at all. Is that normal? Or, in other words, the PPC part of the PDA isn't aware of the phone part is making a connection ?
Follow up:
After testing it with other PC, this mod works on other desktop too. The port speed can maintain @ 115200. So, the slow down may be due to the BT setting @ my Dell notebook. I'll try to change the setting to see if it will improve or not.

It's no prob if you need to decrease the port speed - it'll have absolutely no effect on the real speed.
XM6R3 released with BT DUN hack installed by default
Just a quick note that mfrazzz has released the XM6R3 edition for the HTC Wizard (Tmobile MDA, Imate KJAM, Cingular 8125 etc) and it included bluetooth DUN by default along with regular internet sharing.
The link to the rom is in my signature.

thank you!! this is the firs time i've had some progress with connecting via DUN
it wasn't ever able to use DUN, until using your command.
now i have an other problem though:
my pc connects, writes "Registering your computer on the network...", waits for 20 seconds, and then times out.
any ideas?
EDIT: it works! i didnt know i needed to change "APN_own_operator" to my APN. i thought it was a constant variable that tells the PPC to dial the default APN.

As far as your phone is concerned..when you are tethered using bluetooth DUN it has NO gprs connection...thats one of the benefits of Internet sharing..both the phone and the tethered device can SHARE the internet connection....using Bluetooth DUN it's one or the other..not both.

Sure it is.
unfortunately this important hack has no effect with my universal (qtek 9000) with Aku 3.5 ITA by FLY rom.
How i can to use my universal as a gprs Bluetooth modem with this rom?
Thanks in advance.
Its stuff like this that must make phone carriers go nuts. IMO the fact that people here can't get their phones to work as modems is due to too much fiddling with the roms. Both my 3g phones work as modems out of the box in both ways (sharing and dial up) with no extra effort required. Any problems interacting with some pc seem to be due to the pc and not the ppc. I have 5 windows based computers at home and the ones that have working blue tooth can both use dial up. The rest that need the usb cable can only work with the sharing mode. There were no tricks to get it working - it just went.

M$ Office Communicator Package?

I would like to integrate M$ Office Communicator into a ROM but I am struggling converting the original .cab file into a working package....
I have extracted the contents of the .cab file and created a .rgu and initflashfiles.txt files. The files get installed and it will run but I can't get the Today Screen stuff to display. I know there is a conflict with the 'rtcdll.dll' file since if you have VoIP then it already exists, however I am cooking the rom without VoIP (since it doesn't fully work). I have modified the .rgu to reflect the files are now in \Windows but the Today Screen stuff won't display. I have checked the registry entries and the files are there after the ROM has been installed and they are?
I don't know what else to look for, has anybody got any pointers
I can post the .cab if anyone can help?

Any success?
Any success with making a package from this? I had another play around but didn't get anywhere. I think the installation must create some additional files and/or registry changes that doesn't happen when it's installed as a package.
Do any ROMs have this in by default? i.e. not cooked ones but ROMs released by mobile operators or manufacurers? Maybe backward engineer it?

did u anyways get the communicator to work on ur company network? my company has got vpn and web access to the communcator and i did install it once.. after i put in the server address and signin name and password, it shows loging in and then it throws a stupid error saying please use updated version of communicator. contact system administrator. i downloaded the 2007 version of mobile communicator and beyond it there re no updates.. damn the m$ idiots.. any ideas for a workaround? this same communicator ersion runs on the blackberrys given to seniors by our company

I did have it working briefly, however I am not privileged enough to have GPRS enabled on my company SIM so I only managed to test it when I temporarily rigged a Wireless AP up in the office. We were only trialing OCS at the time, however I think we now have it installed but isn't fully rolled out yet.
I spend very little time actually in the office so unless I can be bothered setting up a few VM machines with Exchange & OCS on I am unlikely to test it further...
I never managed to get it into an OEM package either, if anyone has one or wants to build one that would be good....
The latest version seems to be Office Communicator Mobile 2007 (2.0.387.0) from September 2007 and it says it is compatible with OCS 2007:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...24-F216-4887-92B0-F37D942E26E0&displaylang=en
This is a Windows Mobile 5/6 version and there is a (Smart)Phone version as well.

Update OCS
I know this is old but you need to disable the client version filter on OCS. If you're connecting over the internet, then you need to do this on your Access Edge server (under Application properties). Just lower the version to 2.0.1.0 and you should be good to go. M$ hasn't released a later version even as of this post (unless you know something I don't). I asked them about it and they know (sounds like a new version is being worked out).

I have no idea where you are going with that answer? This post was originally about making an OEM package of Office Communicator Mobile 2007 for use in a ROM kitchen.....
I have OCM 2007 working fine with our OCS 2007 Server either in the Office on the private network or via the Internet (GPRS or public WiFi). What I want to do is include OCM in my ROM so I don't have to manually install it each time I flash a new ROM. It looks like I am missing one final registry entry but I still haven't found it.

Dial-up Networking Via Bluetooth Under WM5 AKU3 / WM6: WORKING at last!! A MUST!!!

Guys and gals, sorry for not re-editing the entire article so that I can incorporate the update into the main body of the article. Hope it’ll be still be understandable.
UPDATE (10/02/2007): there is an even better, easier-to-install and, what is more, even MS Smartphone (Windows Mobile Standard)-compatible hack. Just download the CAB file linked from THIS post (I’ve also mirrored it HERE, just to be on the safe side, should you not want to register at XDA-Dev to access the download), install it (by simply clicking it on your handheld), power down your device (if it’s a Pocket PC – in order to make sure the Registry changes are all flushed) and restart it.
This hack will add full BT DUN to both platforms. I’ve thoroughly tested it on both my WM6 HTC Universal (a Pocket PC) and WM6 HTC s710 / Vox (a Smartphone) and found it excellent. Note that the traditional, BT PAN-based Internet Sharing will still work alongside with the added BT DUN (tested on both devices).
Note that it has a minor annoyance. After you terminate the connection, you will still be unable to access the Net on the Pocket PC or Smartphone that you used as a modem (also see THIS and THIS for similar bug reports). The solution to this is pretty simple: instead of (lengthy and/or awkward) soft resetting your handheld, just make sure you tap either the data connection icon in Comm Manager (this seem to be sufficient with Smartphones) or, as with, it seems, with Pocket PC’s (like the Universal), just dis- and, then, re-enable the phone connection itself (or, alternatively, en-, and, then, re-disable Flight mode). This all makes this small bug easy to live with.
Finally, Smartphone users: remember NOT to long-press the Red dial button to lock your device – it’ll also terminate the call. Instead, use the standard lock menu accessible via the Power button.
There is also a tutorial on making USB connection work with Modem Link HERE, should it be messed up. Also, the entire thread might be worth giving a read, should you still have problems.
Thanks for FX Belloir for pointing out this hack!
(end of update, the now-outdated original article follows. This means you’ll want to prefer the new hack explained above, NOT the old one I still keep for historical purposes only. It's only the first sections, which explain what this is all about, are worth reading for casual users.)
Anyone having read my article New dial-up networking model of the WM5 AKU3 – a must if you use your WM phones as modems knows WM5 AKU3 (and, of course, WM6) has dramatically changed the way dial-up networking is handled – not necessarily in the good direction.

Note that if you have a MS Smartphone (as opposed to a Pocket PC), it MUST be application unlocked for the hack to work. See for example See for example http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=2004&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 for more links on application unlocking. Note that app unlocking is absolutely legal.

If you have bluetooth on your device, then I believe it will work on your device! If you are trying to configure the bluetooth {"DUN"} dial-up configuration setup on your Motorola Q9c, then it will never work. Just install the bluetooth Dun.cab on your Motorola Q9c to the MAIN MEMORY! (NOT IN THE WINDOWS FOLDER)! Soft reset your device. Next turn the bluetooth on, pair the two devices, now the Motorola Q9c is ready to be use as a "modem" for bluetooth {"DUN"} dial-up. Nothing else is to be done to the Motorola Q9c. The bluetooth {"DUN"} dial-up configuration setup should already be on the other device (PDA, Laptop, ect...) that you paired with the Motorola Q9c............! The directions that I'm giving you are for the bluetooth Dun.cab in my thread only............!
VZW Moto Q not working
Okay so I tried the .cab file and stupid me forgot to back up my device before hand. Yeah now I don't have any working Bluetooth.
2 questions.
1) Could someone please provide me with the files from a WM5 AKU3 phone?
ATCIUI.exe
ATCIUI.lnk
atcmdint.dll
bthatci.dll
2) If I can't get these files from someone will a Master Reset get my device back to normal or will it leave the broken files still in place.
This worked great on my Treo 750 w/ATT used it on my TomTom 920. THanks!

Your quest is similar to one I have. I have a T-Mobile Dash with HTC-S620 WM6.1 Smartphone ROM and EDGE data that I want to access the internet from a SE TM506 with HSDPA 3G data. There is no clientside BT PAN on the S620 and no way to BT DUN to the TM506. I have clientside serial port on the S620 to the TM506 but no app to take advantage.
So far quest was futile.

Help for WM6 GSM dial-up internet connection
Hello,
can anyone help me?.
I would access internet with my cell phone (Samsung SGH i780 os WM6) without having any kind of fast data connections with my provider, like gprs edge or hsdpa.
In other word I would connect to the service with a dial-up gsm connection at 9600bps, but WM6 seems to haven't capability to connect to internet this way.
I found here: http://www.modaco.com/content/smartp.../#entry1048254 some related like informations, think to understand that this post tells about to connect a BT device like gps, trough BT connection of a WM6 cell phone, via DUN to internet; someone think this could also be useful for me? If so how?
Please forgive me my english I hope it could have be understandable.
Tankyou.

Live mesh mobile client available

If you have been using the live mesh technical preview, the mobile client for wm6 is now available. Just sign in as normal and then add device.
I'm still seeing "Coming soon for mobile" The limited Mac tech preview shows up, though.

I signed in and out of live mesh and it appeared.
Must not have replicated to the servers I hit yet. I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for the heads-up!
I really like live mesh, (for me at least), it just works out of the box.
Hi !
Is there someone that can post the cab ?
Thanks !
Whatever !
I found it :
http://m.mesh.com/install/wm6/LiveMesh.cab
But it doesn't connect to the mesh : "only available to a limited number of users"

It says US and UK on the Live Mesh blog. I am however having trouble at the point where it's trying to add the device, possibly because I'm on GPRS at the moment and it might be timing out, I guess.
SQL CE error
When I try to install I get this error message....
"Live Mesh was unable to find a suitable version of SQL CE on this device. Unable to install Live Mesh."
I've tried to install SQL, i downloaded it from microsoft directly, and its listed as "SQLServerCompact 3.5 Core" under Remove Programs....
Any ideas??? I really want to use this....
Yes, it's only for US and UK
I installed the mesh cab, and using an "US" account (a french one, but with my country changed to US ) it WORKS ! And works well. I have now a "cabstore" synced with my own server, live mesh and my TyTN II.
Great service !
Got it last night, works great with my XV6800.

I've got this exact same problem. I posted over on the Microsoft Mesh forum and am waiting for a conclusive answer. It's been passed over to the Mobile Dev team apparently.

I wonder if it's got anything to do with cooked roms? I'm running CRC WM 6.1 v13.0 on my Hermes.
--Update--
Apparently there is an issue with cooked ROMs as they don't all include SQL. Installing SQL seperately will not help unless you use a version lower the 3.5 but even that has not been proven yet.
I'm going to try and find an older version of SQL and give it a bash.

Firstly I am in the UK Ive downloaded the updated cab and now everytime I run it it gets past verifying user and then gets stuck on Getting mobile phone identifier and then fails
SQL CE Issue has been identified and resolved
The client needs SQL CE 3.1 installed, and does not work with SQL CE 3.5 installed.
Read and follow information in forum:
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/b8a6da09-c53a-4168-91bf-f476d2a1876f/
All working well after applying Jef K's fix over on the Mesh Forum.
Problem now is that the MEsh Client can't acquire my device ID to register the phone onto my mesh.
Issue being delt with over at http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/c7ce844c-a4e3-4be4-838d-1ebdca5986e7
I downloaded the cab but says that I cannot do it because only a limited number of users can right now. How sad...

No
You cannot remote desktop to the phone (shame)

Limited Users, anyone else got the same problem?

I use mesh for a back up right now and it works great for my home computers. Some things that bugged me are:
No remote desktop.
It will only sync your remote directories to the main memory. I tried to sync my work folder and it didn't place it in the storage card.
It launches external applications to view the mesh folders (Pocket IE) and the file explorer to view local folders.
All in all, a nice first attempt. Build in remote desktop and I would PAY for a service like this!
@Networkguy: it's still the first beta... keep waiting
Unfortunately i can't find a today plugin. This is sad. Anyone has an idea?

VPN Client for Varsity Wifi (WM6.5)

Hey all. I'm currently using a...trial version of anthaVPN 7.6 ...but seeing as it actually only supports WM6.1, and keeps freaking out my wifi reg settings and all, i was wondering if there are alternative VPN clients anyone knows of.
I'm kinda a noob when it comes to the whole VPN thing, having just followed the instructions from my varsity for AnthaVPN (they have instructions only for that specific software, but the settings should be "in-putable" in some other client?)
Any ideas? thanks
