FortiClient SSLVPN Certificate AutoConnect

[piep]

I configured the certbased sslvpn on my FortiGate. The connection works fine user gets his usercertificate and authenticates with it. When i configurate the Remote-Profile on the EMS and say AutoConnect when Off-net, it wont connect automatically after restart. It says: empty username is not allowed. After accepting this message i can klick on connect and its connected. How can I fix this, to get the autmatic connection?

Hi,

You could try disabling the option "prompt username" in the SSL VPN settings in your EMS.

Hi piep,

Do you fixed this issue already? 

I've exactly the same problem with the Autoconnect VPN based on certificates.

Hi Hema,

no I don´t have a fix for this problem yet. I´m waiting for an update of the FortiClient, which will fix that problem.

Hi Piep,

Thanks for your reply. For whick update you're waiting for? 6.4?

Hi, i have tested it on 6.4 and it´s still the same. Empty username not allowed. I don´t think they will ever fix this problem.

I have reported the issue to the Forti devs BUG ID: 0637303. So hopefully it will get patched with an further update.
