Unable to connect with Sophos VPN SSL client

Fred atallas

Fellas, VPN client stays stuck on the yellow light indicator but shows on the XG that user is connected but in reality he is not.

PC is Win10 it worked before but accessing with VPN overseas failed,testing from another station works with the same certificate.

    not sure I can do that from XG, only thing I could do is to delete the user profil and install back his certificate, the log shows he is connected but in reality he is not the light stays on yellow

    Fred,

    I had the same issue with SSL client when we replaced DC with GC, to solve the issue i had to re-import the AD group/s to firewall.
