Would really like to connect my Streak to my company network via Cisco VPN, so can get my email etc.
Found several good sites, which suggest should be possible.
Using the get-a-robot-vpnc application:
http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/
But the error I'm seeing once all installed and configured suggests I'm missing the tun.ko in the Streak kernel.
Several good posts where this has been sorted for other devices, so am assuming the same could be done for Streak?

So does anyone have one for the Streak ( on 2.1 UK ).
Plus if so, instructions what to do with it.

I am using Steve's 1.5.1 since yesterday (but I had the same problem on the official 2.2 315). I can connect to a unencrypted PPTP VPN connection but after a few seconds the data stream is being cut off. No browsing, no e-mail, nothing.
That is exactly how it was with encrypted PPTP, but unencrypted PPTP connections should work fine. An HTC Desire running 2.2 works fine over the same VPN. Any ideas?
suspect you may need tun.ko module
I thought the tun.ko was only needed for OpenVPN? PPTP should work right out of the box, or am I wrong? Perhaps those ROM for other devices already have tun.ko in the right place? And there is no setting into which directory the tun.ko should go.

If you have a question about Steve's ROM then can you ask it in his thread next time then the forum does not get spammed with questions thanks
Hey was up guys i wanted to know if anyone has actually gotten the barnacle wifi app to work on the dell streak using 1.6? I have every rooted and side-loaded apps (obviously). I connect to the streak fine but it says no internet on my wifi connector . I am using Hp g60 windows 7 64 bit. I know someone may have a fix for this , so could you guys helpa newb out?
Do you have another wireless device you can try the barnacle on? Another laptop maybe?
When i had 1.6, i had no problem ad-hocing my laptop to my streak.
Stupid question, but you're certain you can surf the web, FB, twitter, etc on your streak w/o problems?
I am on 2.2 318 now (Worth it many times over IMO), but had Barnacle working on rooted 1.6. I wish could remember the the versions.I had two different Barnacle .apk's on my SD card. One worked perfectly and the other didn't. Might want to search and try a little older version.
Good luck! There is always QDL Tool
yeah actually i can , sufing the net on my streak in nyc is pretty snappy.. And i did try my brothers laptop which is identifcal to mines and it connects but in the network status it says no internet

When you were on 1.6, did you have to flash a new kernel before it worked
I have gone through the steps in the development post for [Module] tun.ko for stock 2.6.32.9 (for openvpn/vpnc/etc), http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013513. I am still unable to connect to my companies Cisco VPN router. I have rooted my Atrix and confirmed that tun.ko is running. Every time I try VPN Connections, it will not connect with no response after an attempt. I have also tried VPNC Widget which tells me "0:unexpected operatorError: root access missing! Waringin:'Advanced Routing' feature missing - VPN Conectivity might be lost after a while"
VPN access is all I am missing to get RDP working, at least I hope as I can use it on my home domain with my Windows server.
I am somewhat new to Android devices, other than tinkering with my old AT&T Tilt with Android 2.2 on NAND. Any help to resolve is much appreciated.
I am still unable to connect through my company's VPN. I have found out that we use a Cisco 3000 Concentrator. If anyone else has had luck with this model, I would like to hear about it.
I had a lot of issues getting mine to work too..
After hours of hunting and lots of logcats later I figured out VPNConnections is very picky about your busybox version. Something to do with the output of the ps command.
Check this thread (Mostly my last two posts on page 5): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13859822
Cliff Notes version:
I got it working with VPN Connections .6, Busybox 1.17.1, and the tun.ko posted by rozzco in that thread.
BB 1.17.1 is available from Stericsons BB installer under alternate versions.
If you need the APK for it or the VPN app lemme know and I'll post it.
FWIW, I never got VPNC widget to work. I had your same error,
I tried your suggestions, using the specific versions. Still no luck. Look at logcat, it appears to attempt to connect but ultimately finishes with "process stderr: no response from target".
scoob8000 do you know what VPN device through which you are connecting? I don't know if it is a issue with the Cisco VPN 3000 Concentrator we are using. There was a mention of retiring the device, but they do not know when or with what it will be replaced.
Did you try this one?
http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/
That is the VPN Connections app scoob8000 has mentioned.

From memory I think it's juist a old 26xx series router.. (Don't quote me on this lol)
It almost sounds like your at least hitting the network. Can anyone try to see your attempted connections on the concentrator?
Working IPSEC VPN Client for Cisco VPN Concentrator
I know this is an old thread, but thought I would post an update anyway.
I recently started looking for a VPN client I could use with our Cisco VPM Concentrator, and ran across the one mentioned in this topic, VPN Connections. I installed it from the same link also posted by lhurtado earlier.
I think this may be a newer version than what was available at that time, though. Either way, I've got it working without any issues, and I'm able to VPN into my network, and use RDP without any issues.
I did try this on a non-rooted Asus Transformer TF-101, and it did not work. I only got a "Failed to Connect" message in VPN Connections. I'll have to see if I can find the logcat mentioned previously for any information on why it is failing, but I'm guessing the stock Kernel/ROM does not have tun.ko.
Here's the specs on what I've got:
Acer Iconia A500 (rooted), custom ROM (Taboonay 2.2) and Kernel (HoneyVillain 3.4)
BusyBox 1.19.2
VPN Connections 0.99
2X Client
Cisco VPN Concentrator 3005
Hope this helps someone else who is looking for a VPN client that works with the Cisco VPN Concentrators.
As long as your kernel support tap/tun configs, you can use the VPN Widget. I use it with our cisco equipment at the hospital I work for. It works like a champ! You will need to get your information to get it to work properly but its the only one I have found so far to work out of the box (with the proper kernel).
As for the OP, being this is an old thread I sure he gave up- however if he was trying to RDP using the hostname, that is not possible (without hackery). Always use your IP until we have CIFS support. NetBIOS name are not resolved on a linux platform without it. I use RDP/VNC with my VPN over 4G almost daily.
Beating a dead horse
OK...First off, thank you to everyone for looking into this.
I'm a Network Engineer that has the pleasure of supporting a Cisco 3030 VPN Concentrator from the stone age. For those with Iphones we just give the Facutly/Staff the IPSEC/PSK and use the native VPN client and all is well.
The Androids (which I'm a die hard fan of) don't work....UNTIL version 4.0.x arrived.
There is an app called VPNCILLA (or for those rooted VPN WIDGET) that works with the old style concentrators. VPNCILLA has a 10 day trial, but afterward is a $4.95 one time fee.
They both work flawlessly and are easily setup.
Just wanted to pass the word in case the one person in the world out there is still trying to get it to work (like me).
Thanks

What vpn issue? I've had this Rom installed for 1 week found issues with browsers, some games and so removed it. Otherwise worked well and battery was superb. I remember I didn't have issues with vpn. Please be more specific by describing your issue in detail.

i have to use L2TP/IPSec PSK VPN so i can access my university's wifi but it is not working in this build...
I have two phones with the same SIM card.
1. Samsung Galaxy S2
After activated MobileAP, my iPad will be able to connect to my PPTP VPN server.
2. Dell Streak 5
However, in my DS5, the connection to my PPTP VPN server seems blocked.
Anyone face similar problem?
Hello CharlesCCO,
After reading the whole question 2 things came to my mind so i though to describe you in detail to pass you some decent knowledge which may be productive for you.
Well, there are two conditions which i think is in your case;
To start with the first, as you have 2 mobile phones and you are willing to connect vpn on both...If you are trying to use vpn on both simultaneously then it is not possible with every provider because not all the providers support simultaneous connectivity. So, i will recommend you to first try to connect vpn on different time interval on you both phone. If that does not work then, ask your vpn provider either they support simultaneous connectivity or not.
The second part is that, it might be possible that there is some problem with the configuration on your phone. So, you can try configuring it once again. It will going to help you indeed!
I have been using vpn on multiple devices and for that currently i am using hidemyass because it allows me to use 2 simultaneous connection. I am using the same on my lenovo notebook and on my iphone vpn . I have tried pptp vpn as well as l2tp vpn and both are good...
Hope this will help you...and if you have further problem with then feel free to ping me on this forum. i will give my best shot to solve your query
