Sophos Connect import ovpn with credential file

Hello,

we're migrating from the old sophos ssl vpn client to sophos connect and I'm trying to import the connection file with a pre-stores username/password.

During sophos ssl vpn client I've downloaded the ovpn file and changed the "auth-user-pass credentials.txt" parameter.
The OVPN and the credentials.txt was copied into C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\config
This allowed me to start the ssl client from another program and connect directly.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\bin\openvpn-gui.exe --connect connectionfile.ovpn

Now with sophos connect I've found out, that it's possible to add the ovpn file via sccli.exe and also connect/disconnect with this tool.

But how do I add the credentials automatically?

I've tried also the "auth-user-pass", but this seems not to be working anymore.

Thank you for your help

Regards
Tobias

Are you using a Sophos Firewall or a UTM9 Firewall?

Auth-pass was the old, very insecure option of doing this. SFOS supports a .pro (provisioning) type of password save within the data.

Hello,

ou sorry, maybe wrong forum, hehe. We have UTM9

I've looked into doku for the provisioning files, (https://docs.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/18.5/Help/en-us/webhelp/onlinehelp/AdministratorHelp/VPN/RemoteAccessVPN/VPNSConProvisioningFile/index.html#provisioning-file-settings)
but I can't find any option to set username+password for this.

someone an idea how this should work with UTM?
