Anyone have any luck with Cisco AnyConnect for Rooted Devices? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The subject says it all. Has anyone gotten the Cisco AnyConnect for Rooted Devices to work on an AT&T Motorola Atrix?
Seems that no matter what I do, I get:
Could not connect to server. Please verify internet connectivity and server address.
I did download tun.ko and successfully insmoded it ,and verified it was loaded with lsmod, but, I still get the error above.
And yes, I have internet connectivity, and I have checked and re-checked the server address.
Any other thoughts or ideas? Anyone else gotten this to work?
Thanks,
-Mark

I am also interested as we have a Cisco 3000 Concentrator for our VPN. I have not had any luck myself. Now that I did the OTA to 2.3.4, I guess I have to go through the tun.ko process again.

Cisco VPN

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

[Q] Is it possible to have VPN on T-Mobile 3G UK?

I've recently got myself a vpn account with a US vpn server. I can connect fine from my desktop always, and only when I'm on wifi from my SGS 2. I don't think it's software related, because I can connect on wifi, so in theory (I think) I should be able to do so over 3G. Am I right to suspect that T-Mobile blocks or does not support the service? Is there a work around for that? Not that it's terribly important, just wondering.
I currently run CM7 nightlies and never managed to get this to work, never had the chance to try it with stock rom.
Thanks
What error do you get when trying on 3G? I can't even connect over WiFi...
This is the error I get;
Server hung up, The username or password that you entered could be incorrect, Do you want to try again?
Username & password are ok. I know that cause it works when on wifi
.
anyone knows the reason?
Thanks

[Q] OpenVPN Routing Problem

Hello
I have installed OpenVPN and its logging on to the vpn and is visible on the network list BUT I dont get any connection to another client in the vpn. I tried to ping another client from my SGS2 and from a client to the SGS2 but its always a timeout. I tried it with the phone and serveral wireless networks.
So I think it could be a routing issue but I dont have a clue how to see if thats really the problem and if its true how to fix it. I read some other posts and maybe it could also be a tun.ko problem but the SGS2 with 2.3.3 should already have installed it on the software, so I'm not sure how to see if thats ok. The Busybox is installed at /system/xbin. So does anybody have an idea how to find out whats actually the problem and how to fix this?
Thanks for your help!
Manolo
It's not clear to me if you tried connecting through your mobile data plan. Did you also tried that?
What is the IP that you are getting when your are connected to the VPN?
If it something like 192.168.1.* Then that's could be your problem. If the WIFI your are on, also gives you an ip adress as 192.168.1.* then that causes the problem. Either change the ip range of your network to 192.168.10* (just an example) or the ip range of you VPN.
ps can you post your VPN server settings?
Do you mean my own ip or the ip that i have in the vpn?
my own edge telekom ip is 10.219.127.35 and my internal vpn ip is 10.10.0.22
I can't post my vpn server settings because i got some key files for the vpn.
If you have installed installed this .zip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16182571#post16182571
Then all you need to do is download openvpn settings from the market. And run in.
If you already did these steps, then the problem lies probably with your server and I need the server config. I don't need the keys of course
Thx!
How does this update work? I see no instructions on the post. Is it just to copy on the root folder?
Ah yes... I found how it goes and its working perfectly!
Thx a lot!

SSL VPN

Has anyone had any success with SSL VPN? The Rezound is my work phone and it is an important feature to me.
I've had no luck using processes that have worked with other phones I've had.
Haven't tried SSL yet but I have a fully functioning PPTP VPN working.
I guess I should have updated this. Got it figured out. When it connects the routing gets screwed up so you've got to delete a routing table depending on what kind of connection you are using.
Hi poormatt,
Which SSL VPN did you have success with? I am trying to get Junos Pulse to work.
Are you on stock rom/kernel? did you have to root the device?
Thanks.

Can't get PIA VPN working on CM12.1?

I have just exhausted PIA's tech support and still neither the PIA vpn client nor openvpn seem to work properly on my i9100. They both install just fine, and seem to connect, but I check and my IP address is the same as it was before, and then I go to the PIA site and it confirms that I am "not protected". I have tried different ports and checking a variety of settings (hopefully not all of them) and nothing so far.
Is anyone else using PIA on the i9100 with CM12.1? If yes were you able to get PIA up and running first time or was there something you had to do?
Anyone else that has thoughts about how to get this going would *really* be appreciated!
Nothing? Please, I have been trying to get this to work for weeks now, no luck, anyone using Private Internet Access VPN successfully yours thoughts would be appreciated if you had any experiences even remotely similar to mine.
