Using which vpn on N900?
 
Dears,

Just want your opinion to determine which vpn client I could use on my N900 Maemo?

OpenVPN is in the repos, works well & has a status bar applet which makes connecting very easy.

Great, but while make a new connection, it showed up to open an open vpn configuration file, could you just help me to find the open vpn configuration file syntax in order to fill it with my data?

I assume you want a n900 client to connect to a server running elsewhere. You need your .ovpn config file to be in /etc/openvpn (create it as root). My own config is below FYI, though you really need to do sone reading on openvpn to understand the options & your own requirements - nmy config is probably totally inappropriate for your needs.

Code:

script-security 2
up /etc/openvpn/maemo-update-resolvconf
down /etc/openvpn/maemo-update-resolvconf
resolv-retry infinite
client
remote myhostnam.no-ip.org 11194
dev tap0
proto udp
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
;redirect-gateway def1
ca /etc/openvpn/ca.crt
cert /etc/openvpn/n900.crt
key /etc/openvpn/n900.key
comp-lzo
verb 3

Your server is not openvpn so you cannot use openvpn client either. I don't know which vpn system uses those credentials so I don't know which client to use either, but hopefully somebody else does.

This looks like Cisco IPSEC-based VPN. vpnc supports this, so you may want to try installing 'vpngui' or vpnc-gui.

Our Cisco IPSEC VPN uses two-factor cert+password auth, which AFAIK still doesn't work on vpnc, so I haven't tried either of these packages. We keep an OpenVPN up as well, since Cisco's official VPN client sucks on Linux (kernel module panics on SMP kernels, which is almost any client these days), so I use the openvpn client myself.

Many thanks for all for share and your support, I installed the vpnc but after adding a repo (extra devel), and it worked perfect..
