How to create a VPN client for Windows Phone 8.1?

We have our own VPN client for Windows and Android. I would like to create a VPN client  for Windows phone 8.1. After referring these site I found that there are some third
party VPN plugins available for WP 8.1.
I checked OpenVPN but it is also not available for WP 8.1.
Is there any APIs available for creating a VPN client in WP 8.1 similar to
VpnService provided by Android SDK ?

The VPN APIs for WP8.1 are not open at this time.

If my reply answers your question, please mark this post as answered.
NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined
objects and unknown namespaces.

  • How to Create Roaming Profile(s) For Windows Workgroups

    This Tutorial Shows how to create roaming profile(s) for Windows Workgroups.
    Here are the steps in order to do this:
    On the host PC:
    1. Goto 'Folder Options'>'View' and un-tick 'Use Simple File Sharing'.
    2. Goto Network Connections and right click on the 'Local Area Connection' (Ethernet recommended)
    3. Goto Properties>General, and tick 'File and Printer Sharing'.
    Click Apply + Ok.
    4. Goto Control Panel>User Accounts, add a new user.
    5. Logon to this user, and open the profile folder properties.
    5b. Share this folder.
    6. Make the Share permissions so that 'everyone' has: Full Control, Read, Change.
    Click Apply + Ok.
    7. Click on 'Caching' and disable Caching for this Share.
    Click Ok.
    8. Now goto the 'Security' tab and give 'Administrator' and 'SYSTEM' 'Full Control'.
    Click Apply + Ok.
    On the remote PC(s):
    1. Make the same User as on the Host.
    1b.Logon to the account and log back out again. Delete the profile folder from 'Documents and Settings'.
    3. Give 'SYSTEM': 'Read','Read and Execute','List Folder Contents' to the 'Administrators' Profile
    4. Type 'lusrmgr.msc' into run, goto: 'Users', double click on the new user and goto the 'Profile' tab.
    4b. In the 'Profile Path' box, type \\hostPCname\ProfileName.
    Click Apply + Ok
    *Note* Replace the \\path\ accordingly to what names are on your Host PC.
    5. Goto regedit>HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion. Double click
    on 'ProfileList'.
    Find which key is for the new user. (Example S-1-5-21-58435627-18431725-18026167-1003)
    6. Right click that key and goto: 'Permissions' and give 'SYSTEM' 'read'.
    *Note* Once you logon to the roaming profile from the remote PC for the first time you can undo this step.
    7. goto GPEdit>Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/User Profiles:
    Enable these settings:
    'Do not check for user ownership of roaming profile folders'
    'Delete cached copies of roaming profiles'
    'Log users off when roaming profile fails'
    "Add the Administrators security group to roaming profiles'
    'Prevent roaming profile changes from propagating to the server'
    7b. Make 'Timeout for dialog boxes' '1' (seconds)
    8. goto: Computer Configuration/Security Settings/Local Policies/Security Options:
    Make 'Number of previous logons to cache (if server is unavailable) '0'
    Now you're ready to login to the Profile on the remote PC.
    *Note* Sometimes, when windows loads it takes a minute for the profile folder to become shared again.
    Thanks for reading.

  • Is Cisco VPN posible for Windows Phone 8.1

    Hello,
    Microsoft released Windows Phone 8.1 on April and it supports VPN connections.
    So I would like to ask:
    Is Cisco going to release Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client for Windows Phone 8.1?
    Maybe someone managed to make clientless connection with ASA 9.1( for example IKEv2 or SSL-VPN) ?
    Or should I abandon idea of connecting WP 8.1 with ASA?
    Thanks.

    Hi  aurimas88 ,
    Looks like AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client 2.5  is supported for windows phone , however W 8.1 mobile has not been tested by Cisco , We cannot guarantee compatibility. 
    AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client 3.0 Windows Mobile Devices Not Supported
    AnyConnect version 3.0 and later do not support Microsoft Windows Mobile or Windows Phone. However, you can continue to use the ASA to deploy the AnyConnect 2.5 or earlier client for Windows Mobile even after loading the AnyConnect 3.0 package files to the ASA for web deployment.
    AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client 2.5 Windows Mobile Devices Supported
    We designed AnyConnect 2.5 for compatibility with Windows Mobile 6.5, 6.1, 6.0 and 5.0 Professional and Classic for touch-screens only. Users have reported success with most touch-screens running these versions of Windows Mobile. However, to ensure interoperability, we guarantee compatibility only with the devices we test, as follows:
    HTC Imagio running Windows Mobile 6.5
    HTC Tilt 2 running Windows Mobile 6.5
    HTC Touch running Windows Mobile 6.0
    HTC TyTN running Windows Mobile 5.0
    Samsung Epix running Windows Mobile 6.1
    Samsung Omnia Pro 4 running Windows Mobile 6.5
    Samsung Omnia running Windows Mobile 6.1
    Samsung Saga running Windows Mobile 6.1

    Hope this helps

  • How to create the C++ DLL for Windows Mobile and how to import it in C#

    Hi All,
         Please can u guide me for creating DLL on C++ and using it in C#
         1) Steps to create the DLL using C++ for Windows Mobile
         2) And where to place the DLL after builiding to make use of it in my C# project
    Thanks in Advance!!!
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sharan

    Hello all,
    I know this is an old thread but i have to give it a try ( i am stuck with an almost identical problem but cant solve it since 5 days googling and reading.
    I am developing an app for Unitech HT660e which has Win CE. THe app is complete but now i need some more control over the barcode scanner. In order to gain controll i need to use USI.dll which is explained in this documentation (chapter 2 has the link to
    the SDK which contains the USI.dll ) :
    http://www.datacol.co.nz/pdf/uni_prog-guide_1.21.pdf
    But i also get : Cant find PInvoke DLL 'USI.dll'.
    In chapter 4 is SysIOAPI.DLL mentioned which i cant fin.
    Chapter 17 has USICF.dll which may be interesting bcos this one can be added as reference and "using USICF" . I am using compact framework 3.5 for this and the emulator is "usa windows mobile 5.0 pocket pc r2 emulator". 
    Reading your post i noticed i can use the "Pocket PC 2003 SE Emulator" but it gives me the same error.
    Maybe i need to include a path in my code but i tried this as well...and get the same problem. Maybe i am missing something.
    Here is my code:
    using USICF;
    using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
    namespace SmartDeviceProjectzaDLLtesting
        public partial class Form1 : Form
            [DllImport("USI.dll", EntryPoint = "VibrationOn")]   //ignorethis?:,CallingConvention=CallingConvention.Winapi)]//Cdecl)]    //EntryPoint = "VibrationOn")]
            public static extern void VibrationOn(bool bEnable);
            public Form1()
                InitializeComponent();
            private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
               // USICF.USIClass usiba = new USICF.USIClass(this); // this gives an exception as well
               VibrationOn(true); // thiis causes the exception
     //           VibrationOn(false);

  • Create a signature capture for Windows Phone 8.1 App

    I am creating a Windows Phone 8.1 app with signature capture control on one of my page. I am looking for an approach using C# so that I can draw points on a XAML with Canvas control. But it seems like that InkPresenter name space is removed from Windows
    Phone 8.1. Is there anyway I can get it around?
    Thanks,

    You can capture the signature by listening to pointer messages and storing the points as they come through. You can then render them as Path segments.

  • How to write and check log for windows phone enterprise app

               We have developed a windows phone enterprise app for our customer, this app will be deployed thorough MDM solution, that is , being installed automatically after the device sucessfully enrolled into the MDM server.
               Our customer required that if this app failed, there should be some log file they could send to us for identify the cause.
               So we catch exception in the app and write the exception message into IsolatedStorage as log file , as following:
    var appStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
                        using (writer = new StreamWriter(appStorage.CreateFile("errlog.log")))
                            writer.WriteLine(format, arg);
                            writer.Close();
                There seemed no problem to write the log with above code. but the problem is , how can the user get the errlog.log to send to us? I tried both Windows phone power tool and IsoStoreSpy tool,  they both seemed
    not able to read the isolatedstorage for the application to get errlog.log due to this application not installed by themselves.
              Any suggestions?
    Many Thanks
    Jennifer

    The easiest way I see to achieve this goal is to provide a feedback page, search on app local storage to find the log file, ask the end user to click button to submit any feedback and post the log file. You can set up a server to receive that file.
    Try read this blog about consuming RESTful service in windows phone programming to get started.

  • Submit: Great Skype for Windows Phone ideas

    We have just launched a new Windows Phone idea board to let you all share and exchange your ideas on how to improve and develop Skype for Windows Phone.
    Before you start sharing your ideas, here are some guidelines to help you get started:
    Idea Submission Guidelines
    Search before posting. Do a quick search and make sure you are not submitting a duplicate. If the idea already exists show your support by giving kudos to the original idea rather than watering down the potential impact across multiple submissions.
    Draft your idea. Be as clear as possible, tell us what your idea is, how it would benefit users and why you think we should consider it. That will not only help us to better understand what you want, but we may even be able to solve your problem more quickly another way. Please avoid text speak and keep the idea short and to the point. Ideas are available within a limited number of topic sections of the community as they are not discussion threads.
    Currently you can choose one of the following topic labels for your ideas:
    Video Messaging
    We‘ve just launched Video Messaging on Windows Phone so you can now send video messages to family and friends, even when they’re not online. Let us know what you think of Video Messaging on Windows Phone and any ideas you have for how we can make it better. 
    Phone Integration
    Tell us how you would like Skype to be integrated with Windows Phone. Would things be easier if Skype was better integrated with the People Hub? Integrated into the messaging app? Or in the dial pad? 
    Contacts
    How can we make it easier for you to find friends and family on Skype and add them as a contact? What are your thoughts on how contacts are managed on Skype for Windows Phone? Do you have any recommended improvements?
    Calling
    Tell us how you would like Skype to be integrated with Windows Phone. Would things be easier if Skype was better integrated with the People Hub? Integrated into the messaging app? Or in the dial pad? 
    Instant Messaging
    Video calling is one of Skype’s most popular features. What do/don’t you like about Video calling on Skype for Windows Phone and do you have any ideas for how we can make video calling even better? 
    Some things to include:
    Start with a clear title
    add appropriate label(s)
    list features and benefits
    Review the ideas of others. Look at other ideas to see what your fellow community members are requesting and feel free to exchange on them in the comments section. While we take into account the numbers of kudos an idea receives, we also consider the amount and quality of member feedback when making our decisions.
    Add value. Vote for those items that you like and agree with by giving the idea a kudos. It's really a significant way to recognize someone's effort. We are using votes as a barometer to find out more about what our contributor community thinks is important, so we can factor this into our prioritization process.
    Submit a new idea. Adding an idea is just like posting a message on a board. To create an idea, click on the “New Idea” button, located on the left side of the page content tab, and in the left column under the actions heading click “create an idea”. Be sure to enter a clear title and description of your idea so others can decide how they would like to vote. Remember, the more complete your thought, the more likely it is to get noticed! You can use simple HTML, format the text, or add links or images. You can also preview your idea and check your spelling before you post the idea.
    Do not be discouraged. Sometimes what seems simple may not be so simple to build. Some ideas take longer than others, and some ideas will not be possible within the scope of what we want to accomplish in the next year or so.
    Be respectful. Comply with the Community Guidelines and Skype etiquette.
    Disclaimer: Skype may or may not use your comments, ideas, or suggestions. Skype reserves the right to use for any purpose including commercial purposes, comments, ideas, suggestions, code, products or services (“Content”) that are posted on this community without any obligation to compensate the individual or entity that provided the Content.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    What is the Idea Board all about?
    Idea Board is a new part of the Skype Community, where members can share their ideas about existing products and services. Anyone in the community can see and vote on the ideas you post.
    We encourage you to give kudos and comment on submitted ideas as we are more likely to take the top kudoed and most discussed ones into consideration.
    How do I navigate the Ideas Board? 
    Finding your way around the ideas board is a pretty straightforward task, here are some of the things you will see to help you get around.
    •  New Ideas – The most recent ideas.
    •  Hot Ideas – The most popular ideas right now.
    •  Top Ideas – The most kudoed ideas.
    The sidebar widgets
    In the sidebar you'll find more ways to sort the ideas board, see new and popular ideas and the top rated contributors to the idea board. It's also really easy to view only the ideas with certain status', for instance if you only want to see ideas that are “Accepted”.
    How to check if an idea exists already?
    Use the search function filtering by the ideas board – or click here (direct link to search function)
    What do the votes/kudos mean?
    Just as you can give kudos in the community boards and blogs, you can vote for ideas you like on the Idea Board. Ideas with high vote totals are more likely to be recognized and accepted by the teams at Skype who develop our products and services. You can also leave comments on ideas, but remember to be kind!
    What do the different idea statuses mean?
    We strive to review submitted ideas on a biweekly/monthly cycle. Each idea will go through a life cycle that will be assigned statuses at each milestone. The statuses are explained here:
    New Idea - Sparkly new idea, submitted by you, and ready to be vetted by the community.
    Comments Requested - Items set as Comments Requested will be open to the community for feedback and votes.
    Under consideration - Idea has been forwarded to appropriate business team who is determining feasibility.
    More information needed - More information is needed before our Product Management team can take this forward, please review the comments left by the team.
    Duplicate - Ideas in this status have already been submitted in some form or another. We will link these items over to the other idea so you can review the status or track the progress there.
    Already exists - This is available in the product. 
    Future possibility - Idea is a good one but not something we can include in a near-term product or software release.
    Accepted - Idea has been accepted and has been taken forward for implementation, check back soon for updates.
    Not right now - We like the idea but just not for right now, we will revisit it in the future.
    Implemented - You asked for it, we did it!
    My idea has been accepted. How long will it take to be implemented?
    Sadly, we will not be able to provide dates for the implementation of any accepted ideas within the community due to the number of factors involved. Please be patient and let us make sure it is completely ready before we make it available.
    How will I know if an idea has been implemented?
    You can track the status of your ideas as your ideas are sent to the people here at Skype who can make them happen and you will see the status of your idea is updated. We will be telling you if the idea is something we are working on now or would like to do in the future, or if it’s something that is not feasible for us at this time. To ensure you don’t miss any updates select “Subscribe” from the “Idea Options” menu when viewing your idea.
    What ideas have been implemented so far?
    You can check "Accepted and Implemented ideas" topic here.
    Can I edit or delete my ideas comments?
    No, you can't. Be sure to check your spelling and preview your comment before you post it; you can't edit a comment once it's posted.
    Who and how often moderates/ manages the ideas board?
    The community team is monitoring the board on the daily basis and product managers will come in on a monthly basis to update statuses of the ideas and post their comments.
    If Skype decides not to pursue my idea, will you tell me why?
    We do not always provide the reasons for our decisions regarding ideas submitted for review but will strive to provide an explanation where possible.
    I have an idea to improve the Windows Phone software itself?
    Microsoft has set up a Windows Phone Feature Suggestion Box for exactly that purpose. Share your idea here: http://windowsphone.uservoice.com
    If I am not comfortable submitting my idea over the Internet, is there another way I can do so?
    No.

    I would really appreciate if you guys work on the feature “ custom backgrounds for chat notifications”.If users will be able to choose any image of their liking in the custom background feature if would add value. Currently some of the chat messengers provide this facility to the users which makes interesting to the users while improving user friendliness and satisfaction. Options that would include areTake a photoChoose from albumsSearch from webDeleteThat appears to be a reasonably robust selection. In search, a user can use a built in engine to pull up images based on search and then select it as it their choice. Once you chose an image, it will be asked to confirm and ‘set’ as the universal chat window for all contacts.

  • How is SQLite used for windows phone 8.1 in Visual Studio2013

    Hi, 
           I'm developing app on Windows 8.1 currently. Can any one please help me with the steps to proceed so that I can create a database using SQLite for windows phone 8.1 through Visual Studio2013.

    Hi SwetaSinha,
    Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
    Since this forum is to discuss: Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help
    System, and Visual Studio Editor.
    Based on your issue, if you want to know how to create a database using SQLite, I suggest you can ask this issue directly to the  SQLite official website:
    http://www.sqlite.org/support.html, maybe you will get better support.
    In addition, since the SQLite is a extension tool for the Windows Phone 8.1, so I suggest you can post this case to the SQLite for Windows Phone 8.1:https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/5d97faf6-39e3-4048-a0bc-adde2af75d1b,
    and then click “Q AND A”, you will get better support there.
    Thanks for your understanding.
    Best Regards,
    We are trying to better understand customer views on social support experience, so your participation in this interview project would be greatly appreciated if you have time. Thanks for helping make community forums a great place.

  • Directory Caching issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows

    Hi ,
    I am facing cache issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows. If I do any change related to modification or deletion of contacts in Active Directory/ Callmanager, it does not reflect in the Jabber. Because jabber takes the contacts from the locally stored cache file in the Windows system.
    Every time I have to remove the cache file to overcome this issue, practically it's not possible to do the same with all the Widows users. As, if any employee leaves the company and still I can see his contact appears in the "Cisco Jabber client". I have not seen this issue with Android/Apple iOS.
    Is there any automated way to remove the cache file? 
    Here is the detail of CUCM,Presence and Jabber.
    CUCM version: 9.1.x
    Presence          : 9.1.X
    Jabber              : 10.5 and 10.6

    Hello
    On our environment we had to install a dedicated Microsoft Certificate Authority "just for Cisco Jabber usage" to house the
    Network Device Enrollment Service.
    Our certificate for the CUPS were generated on this Certification Authority too.
    I discussed this certificate matter with my colleagues this afternoon and nobody seems to remember how these certificates were deployed into the
    Enterprise Trust store for the users.
    But I think they asked all 400 users to accept the 3 certificates by answering "yes" to the popup instead of using a script deployed by GPO...
    I wish you success with that deployment and really hope you have a technical partner that *Knows* this subject.
    Our partner left us alone with that unfortunately.
    Florent
    EDIT: If the "Certutil script method" works, please let me know. This could be useful in our own deployment.

  • VPN Client and Windows Folder Synchronisation

    We are currently having problems with Windows XP Laptops which have folders Synchronised to Servers.
    When they are working remotely, they use the VPN client to connect to the network. Unfortunately, the VPN Client Adapter does not appear in the "Network Connection" drop down menu within the Synchronisation Setup screens. This means that the synchronisation takes place once the Physical Adapter (LAN or Wireless) comes active and an error message appears everytime.
    Has anyone come across this and found a fix for it ? There must be a away of getting the VPN LAN Adapter into the Synchronisation Network Connection list.

    The only supported IPSec client for Windows 7 is 5.0.6. I would recommend uninstalling the client version that you have, upgrade the DNE package from Citrix, and then install the latest IPSec client.
