I would like to know if someone here can help me setting up a VPN Server for my Android Device (HTC Desire).
I have a Debian Squeeze Machine running and need to set up a L2TP/IPSec Server using openSWAN and xL2TPD.

Hey Guys,
I was wondering if any one knows if there is a Cisco VPN client for wm6 or some other 3rd party VPN client that is compatible with Cisco 3000 series?
I also is there an RSS feed reader that can display the news from BBC on today's screen.

The built-in L2TP/IPSec VPN client is compatible with the Cisco 3000 VPN Concentrator, but you need to setup the concentrator correctly to support it. It's a double bonus though as the setup for it to support the Windows Mobile L2TP/IPSec VPN Client is also applicable for the native Windows 2000+ L2TP/IPSec client, so you don't have to install the Cisco VPN Client on the PC's. The VPN Client in Windows Mobile is a bit temperamental though, especially on the Wizard, so there is a downside...... The 5.2.1437 ROM seems to be the most stable so far.
For RSS Feeds I am using JeyoInformer. This has an option to be displayed on the Today screen however I haven't used it too much, I just included it in my ROM build. There is a default XML file that it used and this has BBC's RSS news feed included.

Awesome! Thank you for the info. I will test is using the native VPN client. Will post the results.
So apparently the VPN that I need to connect to only uses L2TP/UDP where as the built in native VPN client uses PPTP or L2TP/IPSec. Any ideas if there is a VPN Client for Windows Mobile that uses L2TP/UDP?

No, the setup on the VPN Concentrator is wrong, or at least not setup for L2TP/IPSec VPDN. If it is already setup and your network admin doesn't want to reconfigure it then you will have to get an alternative VPN client.
Some details here, however I used RSA Signatures instead of pre-shared keys but this requires certificates.

How with the built-in VPN client does one specify the Cisco VPN 'group name'?
On linux I have a vpnc client functional, but to connect I need to be able to give the client the following:
vpn host
user
password
group name -- where do I put this in??
group password --I put this in as the IPSec/L2TP pre-shared key, of course in it's non-encrypted form via http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~massar/bin/cisco-decode -- is this correct?
old post, but I have the same question. My VPN requires a group name and group password (both of which I have) but the built wimo setup doesn't ask me for either.
hello
for group name and pass auth. you need to use anthavpn or bluefire sec. clients. but both not free
Is there away to install CISCO VPN Client on the universal device? instead of using MS client which I don't trust it as everyone does
If there's away please let me know how and where I can download the .cab file.
try this

I use this one (connection to a Cisco PIX):

you can also try SSL vpn (web vpn) or anyconnect client.
What's wrong with the integrated VPN client
The integrated VPN client in Windows Mobile 6/6.1 is a standards based client, I don't know why you wouldn't want to use it? I currently have Cisco IOS Routers & PIX Firewalls configured to work with the integrated VPN client in Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista as well as Windows Mobile 6/6.1. I have disabled the PPTP stuff on the Cisco devices and only use the L2TP/IPSec with 3DES but it all works perfectly.
It took a while getting it working effortlessly but it does now Setup on the Client side is simple and easily supported - no worrying about 3rd party apps, I can't complain about any of it (not now anyway, at the time of testing and getting it all working might have been a different story.....).
Plus Cisco don't have a Windows Mobile VPN Client?

I'm using it exactly the same way you just mentioned above, but when I look to iPhone comes with CISCO VPN client built-in so I suspect that there's one available for CISCO so I specify which tunnel name and so on since I designed different tunnels with different access levels. So if we deployed to the entire company will not meet company’s min. standard security to segregate or have different access level per tunnel.
I know that CISCO doesn’t have client as of yet for WM.

You can have different access levels with the built-in VPN client, its all in the configuration of the back end though with your access servers and the authentication servers (Radius/Tacacs). Using a proprietary client seems to defeat the object of open standards doesn't it? Plus it's something else to support (and go wrong..)
My 2cents..

I am using SSL VPN .
Easy way to acess:
- WEBMAIL
- FileShare.
I am using the ASA 8.x version , wich presents a ver nice web page for mobile devices.
SSL VPN
I have a ASA55xx ver. 8.xx as well I like that, I think I should enable it and will do the trick without CISCO VPN Client
SSL VPN
I have enabaled SSL VPN on my ASA55xx and is working like sharm , I like it.
Thank you eveyone.
They provide that now.
Need help setting up ftp or ssh on nexus s
If anyone can help please include setting on windows 7 client and android client.
cheers
AFAIK, there are Market apps that can make your Nexus S become an FTP or SSH server.
I'm pretty sure there are also apps that enable your Nexus S to become FTP or SSH client as well.
Well i guess ppl are aware of google's blunder(blogs say so) ..apparently all authentication tokens are unencrypted ..
I want to setup a SSH tunnel ..and have a account on freeshell.org ..
Using SSH tunnel on froyo and giving the correct username and password..The application says "connected" but my browsing is dead and nothing works well apart from ping (UDP queries) ....
The netstat shows no active connection to the freeshell.org i looked up all possible address using whois queries andnone of the addresses corresponded to "freeshell.org"
How do i get a free VPN account ??? if it is even possible
HOW do i get a free ssh server for tunneling ???please list free servers
It there a SSH arm port ??? or m i stuck with ssh tunnel
OR
will TOR's android port ORBOT do the same and address the security issue ???
I would like to know if there is an SSH app that can do what bitvise does on pc, like an ssh app that supports ssh tunneling for android, I want to be able to use some ssh tunnel information to change my ip on my android but the android proxy / socks changers i have found so far doesn't have the following options that bitvise ssh has (ip, port, username, passowrd), so I would appreciate if someone can suggest an app that can do this on android.
