10.5.7 breaks CheckPoint SecureClient VPN

After upgrading to 10.5.7, my CheckPoint VPN client stopped working. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the VPN client, however, re-installation does not work either.
Has anyone had a similar experience or a solution?

I have a related but different issue.
I recently installed Checkpoint client latest version, and can connect to the remote network etc.
But nothing can connect to my mac from my local LAN, behind my firewall/router, even when SecureClient is not running. Doesn't respond to ping, can't ssh in from my laptop, etc.
nmap says the Mac Pro is invisible.
Little Snitch is installed but not active - besides, this is a problem incoming, not outgoing.
The Mac firewall is off.
I tried unloading the checkpoint kexts but they refuse.
Uninstalling makes things return to normal - connections happen fine with no other change.
So my question is -- is this expected behavior?

  • SRP527W and Checkpoint SecureClient

    Hi!
    I am using an SRP527W as gateway to the internet at home.
    The router is running newest Firmware Version 1.01.26
    Everything running fine so far, except getting a connection to the vpn network of the comany i am working for.
    They have checkpoint firewall an on my corporate notebook the Checkpoint SecureClient is installed.
    My network is configured like this:
    Internet --- dsl/pots line --- SRP ----  24 Port SWITCH (SRW224) ---- Wifi-AP (E2000)
    I tried the notebook on Wifi, on the Switch with Lan Cable, and directly on a LAN Port of the SRP, same Problem everywhere.
    The client tries to connect but timouts all the time, so i guess the packets coming back are not passing the SRP.
    When changing the SRP to the original modem/router that i got from the ISP, the VPN connection is working.
    With the 3G Data Card in the notebook the connection is also established without problems.
    On the SRP the Passthrough VPN Options are checked.
    Before i had Linksys WAG200 installed with the same problem.
    I changed to the SRP because i need the built in VPN server (working perfect also), and also i was hoping to get the Checkpoint VPN working.
    So, any hints about that?
    Greetings

    I don't want to assume anything so I will ask, this works at a different location correct?
    Does it work hard wired? It looks from the diagram you are wireless correct?
    You will need to forward all ports on the machine doing NAT to the gateway

  • Checkpoint VPN-1 on OS 10.3 Panther

    In order for me to use VPN to access our corporate server, I've only been given the option to use Checkpoint's VPN-1 client. Since it breaks in Tiger, I've got a Panther partition set up specifically for the purpose of connecting from home. I am able to connect with the VPN client, but the OS shows no signs of a connection via the Finder. Is a) anyone familiar with this software and b) is there someplace I should be checking other than the finder for this connection. FYI - the Checkpoint GUI shows connectivity, but offers no options for desktop display/mounting, etc, which is what I need to get to the files I'm working on.

    At long last, IT got back to me, and I wish I'd received your post first as it would have alleviated some confusion a bit earlier and made me not feel as ignorant as I did...
    I was at least expecting being able to browse the network via finder, which I obviously could not. This made me think I had configured something incorrectly or missed a step. It was explained to me that my localhost file needed to be modified to browse for my servers by name. This, of course, has been remedied. I now have all my IPs saved for browsing, VNC, etc, and my localhost file has been modified.
    I appreciate the attempt to clarify my conundrum.

  • VPN Client and Dynamic isakmp keys not working

    Hi,
    I'm trying to enable DMVPN endpoints from dynamic IP addresses, e.g. adding in:
    crypto isakmp key XXXXXXX address 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 no-xauth
    The problem is when I add this line, it breaks our remote VPN Client.  Removing the line makes everything work fine again, except I can't add a DMVPN endpoint that has a dynamic IP.
    Presently all DMVPN spokes have static IP addresses configured and individual keys for each (I'm trying to simply/cut down our config and use a single key for all of them plus enable staff from home on dynamic IP's).
    I can't tell if this is an IOS bug, or if I need to configure something differently.
    Our VPN client is configured as a dynamic map, e.g.:
    crypto isakmp client configuration group vpnclient
    key RAH RAH RAH
    etc.
    crypto isakmp profile vpnclient
       match identity group vpnclient
       client authentication list vpnuser
       isakmp authorization list vpngroup
       client configuration address respond
    crypto ipsec transform-set VPNCLIENT esp-aes 256 esp-sha-hmac
    crypto dynamic-map vpnclient 10
    set transform-set VPNCLIENT
    set pfs group2
    set isakmp-profile vpnclient
    crypto map vpn 65535 ipsec-isakmp dynamic vpnclient
    And then attached to my WAN interface as crypto map.

    Hi Scott,
    What IOS Version are you using ? I don't see any reason that this command would break Remote VPN Connectivity.
    Maybe you can try
    crypto isakmp key XXXXXXX address 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 (remove the no-xauth, as it's not needed).
    Otherwise, you may share output of debug crypto isakmp to see exactly what is failing when the remote users are connecting.

  • Windows 8.1 Metro Applications not functioning over VPN

    Has anyone been able to resolve this in a corporate environment?  We are not looking for loopback exemptions with fiddler, but rather a secure method to configure metro applications to use a proxy.  If we manually set the proxy configuration, it
    works fine but of course breaks connectivity off VPN.  I've configured a pac file as this >
    function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
     if ((isPlainHostName(host) ||
     dnsDomainIs(host, "corporatewebsite.com")) &&
     !localHostOrDomainIs(host, "corporatewebsite1.com") &&
     !localHostOrDomainIS(host, "corporatewebsite2.com") &&
     !localHostOrDoaminIs(host, "corporatewebsite3.com"))
     alert("This connection is going direct.")
     return "DIRECT";
     else{
     alert("This connection is going through proxy.")
     return "PROXY proxyaddress.com:9400";
    When I configure a pac file under automatic settings in Internet Explorer, websites load correctly both internal and external.  When loading metro applications, internet connectivity fails.  I've also noticed that
    netsh winhttp show shows that I'm still configured direct connection.
    If I open fiddler and enable exemptions for Win8 metro apps, they work fine, but of course this 1) blows security 2) makes it very difficult to manage, especially 3rd party apps.
    Any ideas?  Has anyone solved this?  Every post I've looked at has very little response back from Microsoft as to a proper configuration for this.   Thanks guys.
    Ryan

    Hi,
    This is a continual problem indeed. As far as I know, there is still no a effective solution with APP network during some VPN connected.
    While, Untill now, if you need to set proxy for Store APP separately, you can make setting through Group Policy.

  • VPN-1 SECURE CLIENT SUPPORT IN MAC OS 10.6 SNOW LEOPARD

    We use the checkpoint client VPN-1 at work - it works fine with Leopard. However it doesnt work with Snow leopard. Does anyone know what the story is here? has anyone been able to connect to the checkpoint firewall with a vpn-1 substitute? if so how?

    UndergroundRiver:
    I plan to erase and install when upgrading as I come from the Windows world and just can't understand the concept of not erasing and installing.
    Comparisons between Windows Operating Systems/machines and Macs and OS X are not necessarily apt. Even though we may not know exact details about Snow Leopard, we do know that Mac OS X offers several installation options, and the OS is designed to work within those parameters. In other words, an erase and install may not be appropriate or necessary under every condition.
    In terms of backing up, one is well advised to maintain an up-to-date and reliable backup at all times, of course. However, this is even more critical whenever one contemplates undertaking any major procedure, such as installation of the OS. If you would like specific suggestions about backing up, please do ask. You don't have to know where all the files are on your HDD. There are several excellent utilities that will do the work for you.

  • NAC and Checkpoint firewall

    Hi to all,
    Does anyone know if it is possible to configure SSO using NAC and a checkpoint firewall VPN client software on an user machine??
    Thanks in advance for your help

    Mark,
    If the checkpoint device can do standard radius accounting, it can work with CCA. When doing VPN SSO with CCA, it only cares about the accounting packets from the VPN head-end.

  • Checkpoint SecureRemote and Clean Access solution

    I am trying to implement the Clean Access solution (NAC In-Band Real-IP) with Checkpoint SecureRemote VPN clients and wondering whether it is possible to setup single-sign-on? If yes, can I use VPNSSO or do I need to configure ADSSO?
    Thanks for your time and help.

    Please open a TAC case for a timely response on code versions and matrix compatability. We did not use clean access in our PCI Solution for Retail so I do not have a reference for you.

  • Check Point VPN-1, no client settings

    Hello you all,
    First of all, sorry for any mistake 'cause I'm new both on Mac and on this Community. I have a question: Is it possible to set up a configuration manually so I do not need using the CheckPoint Secure VPN-1 Client?
    Thank you all,

    The CheckPoint VPN-1 Secure Client software is only compatible with Mac OS v 10.3 (Panther). I had the same issue and am waiting for CheckPoint to update the software.

  • L2TP VPN not working over internet

    Hello Mac Community,
    It is pretty clear to me that even though I have forwarded the required ports for L2TP, that Mavericks and Server 3 break the L2TP VPN capabilites I was actively using in Mountain Lion.
    I can connect locally, but when done from an external network via port forwarding, L2TP fails to connect.  Before you query me on port forwarding and router make and model, let me assure you, I have been successfully doing L2TP VPN with Mountain Lion and Server 2.x.x with no issue.  Pretty clear to me that Mavericks broke something. 
    Suggestions specific to the OS platform are appreciated!  (The network is in good working order.)

    Hello there as well,
    I've the same issue and I investigate the problem. The reason why it does not work is, that the racoon (IKE Daemon) does not accept connections on port 4500 (IKE for NAT-T) if the source port is random generated.
    Since Mavericks and IOS7 the source port from the client is no longer 4500, this lead to this problem (except you have a old VPN connection already setup bevor you update to IOS7 on your Phone).
    If you are in the same network like your server, the IKE NAT-T is not used. In this case the regular port 500 (IKE) is used, and this works as expected. At the moment we have to wait if the problem is fixed by Apple.
    There are two possibilities, they can adjust the clients or the server configuration. However if you want to use VPN with OS X native methods, use PPTP. This is not affected but of course it provides no Layer 2 Tunneling.
    Regards,
    Daniel

    I am able to dial outbound still with no issues and am also able to intiate a call inbound which partially connects. The call seems to fail at the Capabilities exchange so the RTP media stream does not start up so there is some additional troubleshooting to be done.
    However moving this NAT statement has the side effect of breaking the IPSec VPN that I have configured for the Cisco VPN Client, I would like to be able to keep my VPN working and be able to do a port forwards/Static 1:1 NAT towards my RPAD.
    Once this is happy and working I can then go and troubleshoot why inbound calls are failing at the cpabilities exchange.

    Thanks a lot Jon, for assisted me solve this problem.
    The weird thing that i can't undestand, is that the icmp was working without a problem using the above mentioned access-list however accesing the web server using www wasn't working.
    How you explain that?

  • Help ReadyNAS NV+ as FTP server using Apple Time Capsule

    I am setting this up for somebody else. I followed http://www.readynas.com/?p=1682 to configure the ReadyNAS RND4000 NV+ and then followed http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Designing_AirPort_Networks_10.5-Windows.pdf starting on page 54 to limited success. At times I could log into the FTP server and it would Auth, but then timeout. Swapped it out with my Netgear WNR2000 and configured it and it works great. What am I missing on the Apple Time Capsule that only took me 5min to do on the WNR2000? Called Apple Care and they said they could not help since they do not provide phone support for FTP. I have spent nearly 6hrs on this and all I know is that I had it working within 5min using my WNR2000, but they really want to use their Time Capsule and I just can not get it to work.

    FTP is a lot trickier than it looks and unfortunately opening ports even in a fixed range as you are doing on the readynas, (following that post you referenced). Did you open 5000-5020 for FTP?
    As an odd co-incidence.. the apple utility uses port 5009 to access the TC.. when you forwarded ports in the area of the Apple Utility you may well have wreaked something. Try using different port range above 10,000.
    I can understand why the Apple people would not talk to you.. they have deliberately left out ftp as a method of access to the TC.. but I have a suspicion that something else even inside it might be running ftp.. in which case when you port forward you might be messing up the internals. Or the internals are messing with you. To say nothing of the access to the internal server which could be blocked from remote access.. even if you forward the port. Apple phone support workers will have no idea about this stuff.
    My recommendation for a windows network.. use a router that has normal http access. Keep the TC in the network bridged. You can get Netgear router cheap.
    My other comment is, ftp has no security other than password.. it is open to man in middle attacks because passwords are sent in the clear. It is not really a great method of remote access unless you have a walled off ftp store that you don't care if others access. If you want to buy another router, get something that does vpn and use vpn to access the network.
    BTW Apple do break things like vpn, ftp, telnet in some versions of their firmware.. this is a well known issue and happens across all the apple routers.. since Apple does not use those ports themselves they don't seem to give any great deal of attention to bug catching.. if you run apple network with apple products you won't need it.
    eg
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1435270?start=0&tstart=0
    Do a google search for time capsule or airport (fundamentally the same thing).
    I stick to my recommendation.. keep the TC as a bridged device... just buy another router.

  • NAM not seing traffic in one direction

    Hi, I got a 6500 VSS with a NAM plugged directly. We are not allowed to manage the SPAM sessions from the NAM appliance 2204 Version 5  , so we configured directly in the 65K CLI. We are trying to do captures but we get traffic only in one direction (ingress).

    When we did some testings, we made sure that traffic was in deed through the portchannels in the span session by doing tracerts and generating icmp traffic. Still unable to see traffic in one direction.

    Hi,
    You should have the L2L VPN ACLs as mirror images of eachtother always. In your above configuration they werent. I am not sure if this is something that should break the L2L VPN connection in the way you mention but certainly configuring the connection like this is not recomended.
    Also notice that the "permit ip" statement already includes "icmp" so there is really no need to add an additional line to the ACL.
    I would recomend defining the needed networks to the L2L VPN ACL with the "permit ip" statements and using other methods to control the traffic through those L2L VPN connections IF needed.

  • MPLS MP-IBGP configuration

    Hi,
    I have configured following senario
    PE1-s1/0--------P1---P2------s1/0-PE2
    10.10.10.1 10.10.30.2
    PE1 -s1/0-10.10.10.1
    PE2 -s1/0-10.10.30.2
    I have configured the IBGP between PE1 and PE2 with physical interface IP address.
    I can see the BGP session is UP between PE1 and PE2.
    I have configured (activate) MP-IBGP between PE1 and PE2.
    And i received the following message on the PE1 router.
    %BGP-4-vpnv4NH_IF:next-hop 10.10.10.1 may not be reachable from neighbour 10.10.30.2 - not a loopback.
    Can anyone please explain me what is this mean?

    Explanation A VPNv4 route is being sent to the IBGP neighbor indicated in the messages. The next hop is one of the directly connected physical interfaces. It is possible that the label for the address of the next hop is being removed in the MPLS cloud one hop too soon. Because the provider (P) routers do not store VPN information, they do not know where to forward packets that carry the BGP label. If the address is not available at the correct hop, it could break connectivity between VPN sites.

  • Weird software install issue

    I need to install Checkpoint's VPN client to connect to our corp. network.
    I have downloaded the latest package that supports 10.5. The issues is that when I run the install nothing happens. The process works - I agree to the license, click OK. It shows a dialog saying that it is writing files. Prompts me to restart. But, when the machine restarts there is no app?????
    I have checked the system console, which shows the install running and completing. I went into terminal and removed any trace files that I could find and re-ran the installer, to no avail.
    I don't understand what is going on. The installer log shows it complete and no error messages are ever displayed.
    What do I do???

    Contact Checkpoint.
