VPNC Widget

Please READ following completely!

* This Widget connect to a Cisco VPN Server (PIX/ASA/...) or a Fritzbox by a single click on rooted Android 2.x devices.

Attention: if your device has Android 4+ you should use VpnCilla instead because this App needs root access which is an additional security risk! (VpnCilla does not need root access and has much more features).

* VPN Widget won't work unless...

- You have a rooted (jailbreaked, unlocked) phone

- TUN device available in kernel (CONFIG_TUN=y)

- App installed on the phones internal memory (not on SD - Widgets require this)

- Placed it on homescreen as widget (not as app)

- 'Superuser' rights granted on request

* Forget it, if all this sounds scary - VPNC Widget just won't work!!

* Installation and trouble shooting:

- Install VPNC Widget on homescreen as Widget - not as App!

- Doubleclick widget to change preferences and checking prerequisites of phone (if doubleclick doesn't work, start Vpnc Widget as an App)

- Give "Superuser" rights on request (start Superuser app to verify and use newest Superuser App in case of troubles)

- Never use automatic Taskkillers (it will interrupt the vpnc service!)

- If nothing helps, activate the Debug Flag in the preferences screen and mail me after a trying to connect the session logfile:

/data/data/com.gmail.mjm4456.vpncwidget/cache/vpnc.log

* Restrictions/Issues:

- Supports Pre-Shared-Key (PSK) only (no SSL certificates)

- supports only one user/server profile

- profile credentials incl. passwords are stored at the phone (but hidden for apps without root access)

- if the "advanced routing" kernel feature is unavailable, the VPN connection may be lost when the WiFi hotspot renews DHCP info (you can re-connect by clicking Widget twice)
