Amahi to the Rescue!
I had purchased the IPSEC VPN and configured my router and iPhone correctly. I still was havind twitter blocked and easy dns entries like "hda" didn't work. Also googleing "what is my ip" reported back that I was still on my employer's IP.
It turns out that the Amahi VPN is set to use a split VPN tunnel by default. Here are the steps I used to direct all traffic through the VPN:
1 - Open a terminal on your hda or ssh in.
2 - go to /etc/racoon (that is spelled correctly BTW)
Code: Select all
cd /etc/racoon
Code: Select all
sudo nano racoon.conf
Code: Select all
mode_cfg {
auth_source system;
save_passwd on;
network4 10.8.1.1;
netmask4 255.255.255.0;
pool_size 10;
dns4 192.168.1.10;
wins4 192.168.1.10;
default_domain "Jamahi3.com";
auth_throttle 60;
split_network include 198.162.1.0/24 10.100.100.0/24;
split_dns "home.com";
banner "/etc/racoon/welcome.txt";
}
5 - change split_network from "include" to "local_lan" and delete the 198.162.... range.
Code: Select all
mode_cfg {
~~
split_network local_lan 10.100.100.0/24;
Code: Select all
mode_cfg {
~~
split_dns "Jamahi3.com";
8 - open up your hda, click on settings>servers and restart the IPSEC server.
Then I was able to use twitter over my employer's wifi and the answer to googling "what is my ip" gets me the IP from my home.
