OpenVPN in Iphone

schenke · **OpenVPN in Iphone** - October 5th, 2007, 05:37 PM #1

Does anybody try to install OpenVPN server in i-phone. That will be very cool to have a VPN server running in i-phone, then we can bridge WiFi and Edge network together.

Can we install it?

Since I couldn't find it, I compiled it myself on the iPhone with toolchain-2.0 and put it up in a Cydia repository.

See http://www.stack.nl/~marcolz/Cydia/ for more information.

The trouble is still the tap/tun driver though, so it's probably of limited use at the moment.

Take a look at

Seems to be a good approach

The URL is broken, should be: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.netwo...vpn.user/23442

But yes, that is a possibility. I'd rather see Apple shipping tun functionality in their release though ;-)

Check this out: tunemu - Tun device emulation for Darwin

joee · September 8th, 2009, 08:02 AM #7

Checked !! downloaded, compiled and ... Works !!

Works fine in a pretty basic mode, the tunemu device is working correctry ( we have now a support for /dev/tun !!), so we can establish a simple tunnel in p2p and clear mode.
I'm still stuck with the ssl and cryto support : compiling goes fine, but when testing ( with --test-crypto ... ), we always get a bus error. I suspect that the sdk 's ssl libs and headers or openssl0.9.8 released by saurik are broken or openvpn sources aren't ok with them.

Any suggestions ?

hi there...

As of the latest iPhone OS release (3.0) this is not possible. I am unsure if someone could create an 'all in one' client that connects to OpenVPN and then allows you to browse the web from within the same app. But certainly any app that connected to OpenVPN could not then be put into the background allowing you to use the built in Mobile Safari or Mobile Mail over the VPN.

I tried this: http://code.gerade.org/tunemu/openvpn-iphone.zip and it works fine on OS 3.0 with all features including encryption.

I don't trust zip files, can you give me a link to the site you got this from?
