VPN solution that will work with Iphone

[davetherave2]

Hi guys,

Just wondering if anyone knows of any vpn server solutions (prefer free) that will allow iphones to connect using the phones inbuilt vpn client.

I tried using openvpn via vm player and although a fantastic free server it doesn't work with iphones.

The reason I ask is that I want to be able to push all my traffic via the vpn when using wireless hotspots etc.


Thanks in advance.

Hi

I have tried to use the inbuilt xp software but it doesn't seem to work with my inbuilt network cards and all the examples that I have seen all seem to use a dial up modem.

Thanks for the info droyden but that is not what I am trying to achieve. Maybe I haven't explained it correctly.

What I want to be able to do is connect from my iphone (when I am out and about using wireless hotspots etc) to my xp machine/ home network via a VPN rather than the xp machine connecting to another system.

The reason I want to do this is to stop any potential hacks/ account stealing etc as I regularly check my emails etc while on the go so don't want anyone snooping in on my session. (I know the risk is low but I want to make sure I have everything secured up as much as I can).

So I need a vpn solution that will run on xp or in vm player/ virtual pc that will act as a vpn and run using either L2TP/PPTP/IPSEC.

Thanks for the info.

Well I am on Virgin's 50MB service so upload is usually 1.5MB which is fine for me as I regulary remote desktop to my home network and everything works fine.

I will look into the program you suggested Sin Chase and will give it a go.
