VPN client for PocketPC 2003 and other PDAs

[vocollect]

Certicom has announced that it will no longer support the movianVPN client for PocketPC as of Oct 31, 2004. That was the only client that I was aware of that worked with the Cisco 3000 series concentrator. Is there another option available? Will Cisco ever make a VPN client for the PDA platforms? More and more phones have PocketPC running, you will see a greater demand for Sales/CxOs to want to login to internal resources without having to boot a laptop.

here is the link for the Certicom info.

I have successfully gotten L2TP (built-in vpn client in PocketPC) to connect through the 3000, but you have to use certs on the Radius server and the Pocketpc client.

Hi. I am experiencing the same problem. I am about to purchase 2 HP iPAQ 6315 PDA phones and need them to access my networks through VPN 3030 boxes. Now that Movian is gone and I can't seem to find a single client out there, I was wondering if I could have some assistance with the setup. I would greatly appreciate it.

You can email me at michael.vourlias@equilend.com.

Thanks in advance.

I believe the original position taken by Certicom has changed - you should now be able to download the client from their website.

I am however having problems getting the Movian client to pass traffic in a NAT environment, but that might be my config.
