here is a tun.ko for VPN. Build by scotty2
worksforme
where does this need to be pushed
and exactly does it do lol
Ah, sorry, it can be stored anywhere where it persists reboot.
You need root to insmod it though and right now this needs to be done manually.
Yep, I'm no expert on the inner workings of linux/android, but. I installed VPN Connections v0.99 from here. Then I used the tun.ko from above. I don't know that it'll be persistent, but I'll set up a script in ghost script to move it from my sdcard to /system/lib/modules/ if I need to reboot.
It absolutely works for me.
Thanks for posting it.

Putting it int that dir will not survive a reboot. I put it in /data/local/modules (I created that dir). I am also using the one click root on boot (so it's automatic) and have a script that insmods it. The script must be saved to /data/local/visionary.sh and chmod 755 (at least 744).
#!/bin/sh
insmod /data/local/modules/tun.ko

Yes, you are correct, it doesn't survive a boot. I know just enough to be dangerous, so I created a script in gscript to replace it after a reboot. I looked up the insmod command, it looks like that is a MUCH better option.
Thanks tons
Hi Android Gurus,
I am not a pro in android nor in scripting, I installed VPN Connections v0.99 and followed the mentioned instruction, so now I have Astro file manager installed and I downloaded the tun.ko for VPN. Build by scotty2 and it is on my SD card, don't laugh at me what next?
thanks in advance

Do you have root? You have to have root to be able to get this up and running.
It sounds like this is all that's left.

To me, the easiest way to put the file in that location is with adb.
Then you'll need to go to the vpn gui and setup a connection. For that you'll need the vpn group name and password and your username and password.
where shall I put the file tun.ko ? in the root or should I create a directory like /data/local/modules and put it there?

thanks for the file. how did you compile it? seems like it doesn't work for the new ota-ed phone, so i'm assuming it needs to be re-compiled correct?
thanks,

What does this vpn app do? Not experienced with vpn what so ever. Just wondering if I would find it of use. Thx. Sorry for the noob question.

it's mainly used to connect back into your corporate network or school.
Anyone able to find or compile one for the new outage kernel?

Here is a tun.ko module build off the vision-2.6.32-g814e0a1 source for the 2.6.32.17-g9ab3677 kernel.
Thank you. Insmod's great, now I just wish I could get the vpn to work. :-(

The trick is you might need to append your domain to it. Try menu -- flag. Type in "--domain (domain you're on)" without the "s

So using this I can connect to my Penn State WiFi, and then connect to the Cisco VPN they use? Normally I can't use my phone on WiFi.. on laptop I connect using Cisco's client.
I used root explorer to edit a system file, then save & exit. But the file reverts back to its original. Using root explorer, I mounted the system with Read & write access and I was able to cut and paste the files but can't save file after editing. I googled and saw few people had the same problem but could not find a solution for it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Fix permissions and try again.

Thank you for your response. Just tried but still not work.
Are u trying to change your screen density? If so it's specific rom related. Try using a different rom or lcd density from the market. Or lcd resolution. If that's not what your doing then disregard this post lol.

Still no luck. I knew the system mount with R/W access because I was able to cut and paste files, just can't save files though.
BTW thank you for moving my thread to the proper place.

Have you set it to rw?

Try wiping data for the file app you're using, in superuser delete the file app from being remembered. Return to file app (should have to allow su) and try again.

init.d folder is located in /system/etc are you sure /system partition is mounted with su permissions? And that its mounted as read write? What are you using to change the permissions exactly? Id recommend a terminal emulator or adb.
I m facing the folowing problem : I can't move anything to init.d and I can't change the files permissions
I m using mi explorer 3.0.4
Do someone have an idea to solve the problem?
Ps : I tried many differrent explorer but every of em faced the same problem

Kind of obvious question, but: are the read/write settings correct? Some users get confused with apks such as root explorer where it shows a button saying 'read only' whereas it's a toggle to change it.
I finaly understood my error I just didn t asked the root permission for my explorer --' but thanks for your answer

Downloads always go to the internal sd by default. This fixed it for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2684384 . Post number 6 suggested an emulator to use and is what I went with.
you can use this apps... it works for me.. fix, grant su permission then reboot.
