Ok. There are two different questions being addressed in this thread. One is how to get a standard iOS system to talk to particular servers (which you were addressing) and the other is how to get iOS support for a new VPN client that communicates with its server using a protocol not already supported by iOS, and tunnels all traffic from the iOS system.
The later is the one that probably requires cooperation from Apple.
Don't know which of those is closer to the question Arun asked initially...
