JanusVM works with PPTP, therefore use this tab. In the server section add the external ip address of your home machine. If you have a domain name pointing to your external ip address you can also enter that here. If you have a router you will have to use “port forwarding” to forward port 1723 to the ip address of the local machine running JanusVM. In JanusVM option 4 allows you to create users, and passwords. Configure JanusVM according to your liking.

Back to the iPhone.

Step 6: In the account section add the username that you configure in option 4 of JanusVM

Step 7: For “RSA SecurID” turn it off.

Step 8: In the password section add the password you set in option 4 of JanusVM

Step 9: JanusVM requires your iPhone encryption level to be set to “maximum”

Step 10: Set your iPhone to “send all traffic” through the VPN

Remeber, to configure JanusVM you will actually have to boot the virtual machine first. The list of option are automatically displayed once fully booted. I recommend using a static local ip address; if you choose dynamic you will most likely get a different ip address each time you boot JanusVM. This will be a pain, because you will have to adjust the “port forwarding” option in your router as per the local ip address of your JanusVM instance. If anyone has any questions just post a commend. I’ll help get you running ASAP.
