= VPN Client - Android - HTC Android G1/Dream =

'''NOTE:''' [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.blinkt.openvpn&hl=en OpenVPN for Android] works with the certificates below for ICS 4.0 or greater without rooting your device. There is no additional configuration required to the HDA or your device (Tested on HTC One X and Samsung Tab 2 also on HTC One V).

This guide is written for a HTC Android G1/Dream phone rooted with Cyanongenmod 5.

[update March 24, 2011: Tested and works with Cyanogenmod 7.0, thus any CM7 compatible phone]

[update August 8, 2011: Tested and works with Cyanogenmod 7.1, thus any CM 7.1 compatible phone]

[update September 9, 2011: Tested and works with MIUI 1.9.2 on a HTC Droid Incredible 2, should work on any MIUI ROM]

[update 22 March 2013: Tested and works with Android 4.2.2 on Nexus Devices]

In your Linux-based OS computer..

* Download the files here and save them in your /home/username/openvpn folder (where ''username'' is your main users name)(to download, right click > save as):
** [http://dl.amahi.org/vpn/AmahiHDAClient.crt AmahiHDAClient.crt]
** [http://dl.amahi.org/vpn/AmahiHDAClient.key AmahiHDAClient.key]
** [http://dl.amahi.org/vpn/ca-cert.crt ca-cert.crt]

Then, from the terminal run

{{Code|cd /home/username/openvpn
openssl pkcs12 -export -in AmahiHDAClient.crt -inkey AmahiHDAClient.key -certfile ca-cert.crt -name Amahi -out certs.p12}}

You will be asked for a export password for the certs.p12 file - enter amahi twice.

To automate this process, paste the code from [http://wiki.amahi.org/images/f/f9/Automate.script automate.script] in your favorite editor. Save it & run it with {{Code|sh <filename>}}

You should now have a certs.p12 file in your /home/username/openvpn folder, copy this certs.p12 file to the root of your sdcard on the Android phone.

Now on the Android phone..

<pre><nowiki>
Menu -> Settings -> Location & Security -> Install from SD card
</nowiki></pre>

This will show you certs.p12, select this and enter the password amahi, after it has extracted the certificates, you will be asked to name the certificate, enter Amahi.

Now on the Android phone

<pre><nowiki>
Menu -> Settings -> Wireless & networks -> VPN settings -> Add VPN -> Add OpenVPN VPN
</nowiki></pre>

VPN name = Amahi

Set VPN server = yourHDAnickname.yourhda.com

User authentication = Yes

Set CA certificate - Amahi

Set user certificate - Amahi

Menu -> Advanced -> LZO compression = Yes

Back

Menu -> Save

You should now see an Amahi entry, click on this to connect. It may ask you for the certificate access password. Then it may ask for your username and password that you use to loginon your HDA. You should see that you are connected, enjoy your VPN connection to your HDA server.

= VPN Client - Android 2.2 - DROID X (Verizon Wireless) =
Contact me in the forums if you need help setting this up. If you have a later version of Android such as Gingerbread (Android 2.3) then you can't use this tutorial for setting up openvpn. You can however use the openvpn configurations if your phone is already set up with openvpn.

[[User:Sag47|Sag47]] 00:51, 5 April 2011 (PDT)

This tutorial is not for the feeble minded. I tried writing it as best as I could to keep it a "How to VPN" article and not a "How to root my droid" topic.

The default Droid X from Verizon does not come with openvpn installed. It's a little annoying and you have to be a little tech savvy to get it working. I am outlining instructions here for how I connected my Droid X to my Amahi HDA.

Some prerequisites:
* Your phone must be rooted.
* I am running Android 2.2 so these instructions may become outdated. I also recommend you be running Android 2.2 Froyo on your Droid X
* You should have adb installed (or running a more advanced bash terminal on Android like Better Terminal Emulator Pro app)
* Install the following apps
** OpenVPN Installer
** OpenVPN Settings

Create a directory on your SDCARD called openvpn or if in the terminal /sdcard/openvpn.

Follow the general [[VPNLinux]] instructions but place all of the configurations and certificates in the openvpn folder on your sdcard.

Install openvpn using the "OpenVPN Installer" app and select /system/bin each time the app asks for a location to place a binary.

You can run one of the following commands to grab the mount point of your system folder. (Run commands through adb or in a terminal on your Droid)
<pre><nowiki>
df | grep system
cat /proc/mounts | grep system
cat /proc/mounts
</nowiki></pre>

My device is mounted on /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 so that is the device I am using in this tutorial. Download tun_alt.ko as recommended in [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11109394&postcount=25 this post]. Copy it to the root of your sdcard.

Now we install the kernel module. Run the following command sequence (through adb or a terminal on your Droid).
<pre><nowiki>
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
mv /sdcard/tun_alt.ko /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
cd /system/lib/modules
chown root\: tun.ko
chmod 644 tun.ko

#now lets test it
insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
</nowiki></pre>
If you don't see any output and the "OpenVPN Installer" app successfully installed openvpn then you should be set up.

Double check your configuration in /sdcard/openvpn. Once you know everything is good then run the "OpenVPN Settings" app. It should automatically detect your configuration.

Enable OpenVPN. Select your config to turn on the tunnel. Then you should see a prompt in your notification status prompting for a password. My Droid X connected to the network after that.

There's one final step. If you remember you manually ran the insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko command but when you reboot your phone the module will no longer be loaded.

Go into the settings for the "OpenVPN Settings" app and modify the TUN module settings.
* Set "Load module using" to insmod.
* Set "Path to tun module" to /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

Reboot your phone and test the configurations. It should be a one click process within the "OpenVPN Settings" app.

__NOTOC__

<big>'''ETA''': End of Jan 2011, plus/minus a fee weeks for release of Amahi for Fedora 14. We are in still in the [http://forums.amahi.org/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=1975 development/testing] phase.

'''WARNING:''' There are '''NO''' applications publicly available in Amahi for Fedora 14 at this time.</big>

= Development Notes =
'''DISCLAIMER:''' These notes are for development of Amahi with Fedora 14. These notes are not by any means anything for users to follow. Please continue to install Fedora 12 for new Amahi installs. Fedora 14 is not '''OFFICIALLY''' supported yet by Amahi.

The following '''ARE NOT''' Amahi ready with Fedora 14 at this time:
* ExpressCD: estimate late Feb 2011
* Plug: depends on Fedora 14 ARM release

== Amahi Repo ==
* 32-bit and 64-bit is ready.
* Use '''<nowiki>http://f14.amahi.org</nowiki>''' for install.
* App store is not complete yet - there are '''NO''' apps publicly available.

== Amahi Install ==
* Web installer works.

* Open browser and navigate to '''<nowiki>http://localhost:2000</nowiki>'''
* Enter install code

== Known Issues ==
* [http://www.amahi.org/support/instructions Installation instructions] are not updated for Fedora 14.
# Ensure you check the partition table, as Fedora will create a very small root (/) and a big /home partition. (Your shares will be on the root partition so a big home partition is useless).
# Ensure '''Graphical Desktop''' is checked.

# Add '''Amahi''' repo as noted above.
# Then continue with install as documented.

* There is a problem with setting the timezone in PHP. A workaround is in place to allow the install process to continue. This will affect some apps.
