We now have a new Amahi [http://www.amahi.org/apps/ipsec-vpn IPsec VPN app] for your HDA!
= Introduction =
This VPN stack has many advantages, although it still requires two ports to be forwarded from your router to your HDA. These are
UDP, not TCP.
Below Here is how to set up clients for various client operating systems: * [[IPSec VPN iOS Client | iOS]] (iPad, iPhone, iPod) built-in client* [[IPSec VPN Windows Client | Windows 7]]* [[IPSec VPN Mac OS X Client | Mac OS X]] built-in client* [[IPSec VPN Android Client | Android]] built-in client, (ICS, i.e. 4.x or later) The Android (2.x/3.x) OS is known to be broken with respect to [http://www.amahi.org/apps/ipsec-vpn IPSec VPN]. See [[IPSEC/L2TP_VPN_Server|here]] for a manual implementation that should work. '''NOTE:''' By default, the VPN will only route traffic destined for your home network via the VPN. General web traffic etc, will *not* be encrypted. To change this behaviour so that all network traffic from your client is routed via your VPN, edit /etc/racoon/racoon.conf and remove the lines beginning "split_network" and "split_dns". The restart racoon. = Changing Secret and/or Group Name = Optionally, you can change the secret and/or group name. For that, you have to be able to edit a system file as root. Become root via ssh or a terminal and then edit this file: /etc/racoon/psk.txt This file has two field separated by at least one space. The first one is the Group name and the second is the Secret. Change them , keeping in mind that. The changes will be picked up automatically a few seconds later. If you want to make sure, perform a: service racoon restart = Route All traffic through VPN (Amahi 6/Ubuntu) = After you install IPSEC VPN and configure your router and iPhone correctly, you may find that Twitter and Facebook are still blocked by some networks. Also searching for "what is my ip" via Google or your favorite search engine will report back that you are still on the local network. The Amahi VPN is set up to use a split VPN tunnel by default. If you want to use blocked services while behind somebody's internet filters, you can use these steps to encrypt your traffic and use blocked services like Twitter and Facebook.
= iOS Setup =Below are the steps to direct all traffic through the VPN. Please note this will divert all of your traffic through your HDA, but you will not be able to access some of your network resources.
Go to Settings > Network > VPN > IPSec, enter the settings below and click 1. Open a terminal on Saveyour HDA or use SSH.<br />
* Description: Amahi IPSec VPN* Server: YOURNICK2.yourhdaGo to /etc/racoon.com (put your Amahi dyndns address, nickname and host)* Account: USERNAME* Password: leave it as "Ask Every Time" or put one if you feel it's safe to leave it there* Use Certificate: leave it as OFF* Group Name: Amahi (with a capital A)* Secret: this is the 4-character you got the when you installed the IPSec VPN app in your HDA* Proxy: leave it as offcd /etc/racoon

Currently, Amahi only supports one IPSec VPN client for windows, a free client from Shrew Soft7. (Report others Also change "split_dns" to the name that also work well please)I changed home domain to...<pre>mode_cfg {~~ split_dns "amahi3.com";</pre>

= Max OS X Setup =2. At your Hda run ifconfig to see what is your network interface. <br>At /etc/racoon/amahi-up-down change the lines 19 and 26 from eth0 to em1 because this is the network interface of my Hda. The changes are<br>from: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADEto iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o em1 -j MASQUERADE
Similar and from: iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE<br>to iOS. iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o em1 -j MASQUERADE
