Creating a vpn for accessing cni

I am in need of help in creating a VPN for accessing a CNI.
I am looking to use my touchsoft iphone app to control cbus via the 3g network.
I have limited experience in this are of the techno world so looking for direction on where to seek help and/or a step by step guide: o: confused:

 

Hello Fred
This link shows how to set up a VPN server on a Windows7 machine.

You will have to allow the VPN through your router also.
Set up the VPN on the iPhone.
Once connected to the VPN your iPhone will have an ip address on your local network so you can set Touchsoft to connect to the CNI local address.

 

Thanks DarlMc

I shud have said... I am running OS X 10.6.7... and VISTA (dedicated to cbus)...

 

OK
I will leave the topic to someone who might know the setup you need.
How is your Touchsoft app going?
Is the status always correct when you connect and does it ever lock the CNI?
Vista should work much the same if you are inclined to try it.

 

Thanks DarlMc

No the status is never correct on startup... annoying!
And no... The CNI does not lock up at all... thankfully.
I will try your link with vista????
Cheers
