Hello!  
Likewise, I want to use VPN on my Andoid phone to my vps based on ssh tunnel.
I have no Android programming experience, so I want to do with kivy.

I tried using kivy to launch other program, like ssh or glider (https://github.com/nadoo/glider), but all failed, because I have no permission to ssh or other binary program has no permission to open socket.

Is any way to meet my need?

Robert

Android is not POSIX compliant, so some the desktop assumptions are not valid - using Python doesn't change that. To use any language you have to understand the constraints of the target machine, and of the tools. (The Python write once run anywhere assumption is only 'mostly true' on mobile devices).
