This way, the user will get the webform, fill it in, and we'll extract the cookie with org.apache.http.cookie. The second thing which I need help with is passing the syslog messages up to the Java UI for parsing and interpreting the state information. The OpenVPN implementation in CM does this with a unix socket, I'll probably do similar. Last, and this is a nice to have, I'd like to use '--script="set >&3"' and have the calling process, which runs as root, configure the network. The calling process is mtpd. This one isn't critical because I currently have '--script="su -c /path/to/vpnc-up.sh"' and the SuperUser apk grants it permission. How to build: This is an overview, please don't assume it is correct. ;-) I'm assuming you already have CM running on your phone. So, pull up http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_from_source and pick your phone and host OS. For me, that was the Nexus One and Ubuntu. Follow the instructions until you get to 'repo sync -j16', once that one is done, create a new branch in all the git trees: $ repo start openconnect Now, using the wonders of git, you can pull in all of the trees from git.infradead.org/users/jcooper/* Here's a list of the git directories where I changed code: android external/mtpd external/openconnect # you can use David's tree here. external/openssl frameworks/base package/apps/Settings system/core vendor/cyanogen The only squirrelly thing was after creating external/openconnect, I had to do this: $ cd ~/android/system/.repo/projects/external $ git clone --bare git://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/openconnect.git All of the other git repos in the tree (eg external/openssl/.git) are full of symlinks to bare repos under .repo/projects. I didn't do that with openconnect, and that'll probably burn me later, but hasn't yet. Now, you can proceed to hack it up, then follow the rest of the CM build instructions. Beware, on an i7 with 8GB ram, it takes 30 minutes to build. Patches are appreciated! thx, Jason.
