Question

SonicWall NetExtender and MAC (or Linux)

Asked by: psandeen

Have an SSL-VPN 2000 running 2.5.x.x (VPN Client ver. is 2.5.78)

Windows NetExtender installs and connectivity is fine.

This same issue applies to MAC and Linux, troubleshooting the MAC first.

NetExteder installs fine on the MAC/ 10.5.8  from the virtual office, and even connects and recieves a valid IP.

No routing though, the routing table/ available routes is blank, and the diagnostic log shows the following when connecting ...
(domain.com was used to replace the valid domain)


NetExtender for MacOS - Version 2.5.78                      .1111P|.

Connecting to SSL-VPN Server "vpn.domain.com:443". . .
Error determining existing route to SSL-VPN Using SSL Encryption Cipher 'DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA'
You now have access to the following 0 remote networks:
NetExtender IP Address: 192.168.68.57
NetExtender connected successfully. Type "Ctrl-c" to disconnect...

Done.

I have tried using the newer Sonicwall 3 client thinking there would be settings I could set but there weren't.

Tried adding the route/gate manually on the MAC and that had no effect...

Is there a prefs file I can modify for settings on the MAC or a scripted way of connecting?

VPN Tracker works, but at $120.00 per client that is unreasonable.

FREEWARE VPN client for the MAC?

IP Securitas is the answer.

This is being closed.

Thats not a solution, you should not have closed this.  Giving an alternate VPN when an enterprise does not offer options is rediculous.  Our office has an SSL-VPN and needs that to connect to internal network.  IP Securitas is not an option for us and a lot of other folks on here.  If you are a real tech, you should know better than that.  I am going to reopen this issue and please do not answer and close.  You obviously don't know the solution.
