6.1.3.0 VPN Group support not working?

Hi,
No this should work fine. There must something when you close the connection. How do you close it? Is it an embedded RDP?

I right click the connection (server1) and choose close session. After this the VPN connection disconnects. Server2 is still connected.

I use embedded rdp yes.

Hi,
If I send you a special version with some debug message, would you do a test for me?

Hi David

We are having the same issue but have the machines pointing to an existing VPN session which is just using the Microsoft VPN

Oh,
Maybe it's the problem, you must enter in each RDP session the VPN group name and not just link it, is it the case?

Hi David,

Of Course I'm willing to test, no problem.

I have entered in each session the same VPN Group name as the VPN name.


Kind regards,
Ray

Hi David,

Do you still need me to test something?


Kind regards,
Ray

What was the result when your entered the same vpn group name in each session?

I did allready enter the same group vpn in each session....

VPN Group name for each session is the same as the vpn connection name for each session. I have tried to change the vpn group name to something else for each session, but still same result.

Do you mind to try a special version with debug messages?

No problem!

Can you try this version and do a simple test (open multi connection for the same vpn group) and give me the message (you can do ctrl-v to copy the message)

It crashes on startup:

Sorry, it's now fixed and updated

Hi,

On start of the first session, I get this message:
---------------------------

---------------------------
New VPN group createdKlomp (VPN)
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------


On start of the second session, with the same Group VPN I get no message at all, it connects fine.


Now, I disconnect the first session (right click session, disconnect).
I get this message:
---------------------------

---------------------------
Closing By Result VPN:Klomp (VPN)
---------------------------
OK



The second session now locks up, because the vpn connection is disabled.



Kind regards,
Ray
---------------------------

So, it's appear that the second connection does not flag the group. I thought of something, is it possible that it's only open it if it's unable to ping?

Yes, that's possible. I have set all session to connect if unable to ping. This way, when I start a random session it connects my vpn.

Ray

I think that's the problem. RDM does not invoke the VPN architecture, so the VPN group is not flagged. Can you do the test for one session just to confirm? If it works, I will be able to find out a solution.

Hi,

Youre right, that's the problem. If I setup the session to allways connect (and not connect if unable to ping), the first session connects fine. When I open the second session it tries to open the vpn sonicwall connection again, this results in a broken and then re-established connection.

After that, I'm connected to 2 servers. When I disconnect the first session, the vpn does NOT disconnect. It will disconnect fine after the second session is disconnected.

I really hope that it is at all possible to get this working it set to connect if unable to ping (or not try to connect again when set to allways connect..).

Thank you for your trouble.


Kind regards,
Ray

Excellent, I just wanted to confirm the problem. I will be able to fix this, I pretty sure it's a simple modification in our code.

Great news, if you need me to test again, that's fine.

Ray

Anything new on this?

Have yoy tried the beta?

Hi,

I missed the beta completely :).

It's working on 6.4.8.0 and 6.5.0.0. You're a genius!


Kind regards,
Ray
