No prompt for authentication when trying to connect to VPN

Using OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5, I created a new VPN Cisco IPsec connection with the native VPN client.
I can manage to connect, whereas colleagues of mine (same network, same configuration, same operating system) can.
The point is that I'm never prompted for the password to connect to the VPN: the prompt window simply doesn't show.
Here are the logs from the console:

If I'm not wrong, the window requesting the password should open after the line I highlighted (that's the behaviour we noticed on my colleagues' macbooks), but it doesn't.
Does anyone knows how I can fix that problem? Thanks for your replies.

Did you find a solution to this?  I have searched for several hours and found a few references to this behaviour (same people) but no resolution.
Same issue for me, I see the "enter your user authentication" dialogue box, but there are no text boxes to enter credentials, only OK or CANCEL.
Thanks

  • STSNavigate() still prompting for credentials when trying to open a document

    Here is my scenario. We have setup a public facing site the utilizes a Web Application that searches a internal SharePoint 2010 site. The web app utilizes the SharePoint QueryService to search the site. We provide credentials to the service as the SharePoint
    site is not an anonymous site (although if the QueryService worked with the site being anonymous that would satisfy our requirements). The Web server allows anonymous access to the web app through IIS. I have found that utilizing the STSNavigate() function
    SUPPOSED to allow the document to be downloaded or opened without prompting for credentials. I modified my search results link to include the function on click and low and behold it still prompts for credentials the same way it would if the url just had the
    link to the file. I am on a time clock here and I am running to the end of my rope. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that STSNavigate() still prompt for credentials when trying to open a document.
    Per my knowledge, if you try to open an Office file directly from a remote place, Office wants to know who the hell you are. If the server responses with the
    Microsoft Office Protocol Discovery or a
    FrontPage Protocol or a
    WebDav Protocol
    Then  it ask you for  credentials.
    As a workaround, I recommend to  “init.js” located in \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033 folder.
    You need to add this it:
    STSNavigate(ctx.HttpRoot + "/_layouts/download.aspx?SourceUrl=" + o);return false;

  • Internet disconnects when trying to connect a vpn on a different user account on the same computer

    Im trying to have one user account with my real ip address and another user account on windows 8 with a vpn connection. Everytime i switch (i dont logout i just lock the user) then try to connect a vpn on the other user account the internet disconnects
    on the other user account. It's like it wants to change my entire internet connection to use the vpn instead of having a seperate connection on each user account. is there a way around this or am i stuck having to use two laptops? I also unchecked
    Use default gateway on remote network on the vpn.

  • New windows 8 laptop gives error 800 when tries to connect to vpn and it is unable to connect to softphone as well.

    Hi,
    I am trying to switch over my work computer from a windows 7 laptop to a new windows 8 laptop so far I have not been able to connect to the VPN on windows 8. The windows 7 connects without an issue and is still connected. The same for my softphone using
    the same settings it connects on windows 7 but says account failed to enable on windows 8. I am only using windows defender as I uninstalled the anti virus software that came pre-installed. 
    Any help on this issue will be greatly appreciated!

    Hi,
    Error 800: Unable to establish the VPN connection. The VPN server may be un-reachable, or security parameters may not be configured properly for this connection.
    Please temporarily disable Windows firewall and Windows defender to check if that helps.

  • SharePoint prompting for password when saving word document

    Saving a word document back to SharePoint always prompts for credentials.
    I am the administrator for a SharePoint farm. We have enabled kerberos, and added the portal to the intranet zone in Internet Explorer by group policy. Most of the time this limits the amount of password prompts our customers see (including viewing the portal
    in a browser, and opening documents); however, we are still getting the prompt for credentials when trying to save a word document back to SharePoint.
    Here are some details: - SharePoint 2010 - Word 2010 - Kerberos enabled - Portal added to intranet zone in IE - Checkbox for passing automatic credentials enabled
    Can anyone help? Is there something I've missed? Is this prompt just unavoidable?

    Hi,
    Internet Explorer uses the Web Client service when you use Internet Explorer to access a
    WebDAV resource. The Web Client Service uses Windows HTTP Services (WinHTTP) to perform the network I/O to the remote host.  WinHTTP sends user credentials only in response to requests that occur on a local intranet site. 
    However, WinHTTP does not check the security zone
    settings in Internet Explorer to determine whether a Web site is in a zone that lets credentials be sent automatically.
    Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press
    ENTER.
    Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
    On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click
    Multi-String Value.
    Type AuthForwardServerList, and then press ENTER.
    On the Edit menu, click Modify.
    In the Value data box, type the URL of the server that hosts the Web share, and then click
    OK.
    Note   You can also type a list of URLs in the
    Value data box. For more information, see the "Sample URL list" section in this article.
    Exit Registry Editor.
    After this registry entry is created, the WebClient service will read the entry value. If the client computer tries to access a URL that matches any of the expressions in the list,   the user credential will be sent successfully to authenticate
    the user, even if no proxy is configured.
    Note You have to  restart the WebClient service after you modify the registry.

  • Outlook 2010 prompts for profile when 3rd party application tries to send mail

    Hi,
    I have been having an issue with Outlook 2010 and our in-house MIS system. The system uses Outlook to send mail out, and it works perfectly fine if Outlook is running at the time.
    There is a problem though when Outlook is not running and the programs calls Outlook to send the mail, Outlook will display the "Choose Profile" dialog. Outlook basically launches in the background with the little gear icon in the system tray.
    Is there any way to get rid of the select profile screen? Everything is already selected appropriately under Control Panel>Mail, Outlook does not prompt for profile when launched normally.
    Thanks

    It all depends on the code you are using to initiate Outlook.
    It might be better to ask this in the developer forum down the hall:

    I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

    Did you already try these suggestions?
    Check USB connections
    Related errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

    Hi Ingo,
    I do not get any error while using the Universe Designer, I get this error when trying to connect a SAP BW related universe in Crystal Reports. There is no problem at all with WebIntelligence by the way. It is possible to connect a SAP BW related universe in WebIntelligence.
    I use BO XI 3.0 with Crystal Reports 2008 and the SAP Integrations Kit client components are installed on the client machine.
    Nevertheless the BO Enterprise system is not configured with SAP Authentification, but with an own authentification.

  • Problem with Windows 7 802.1x prompted for authentication multiple times

  • Keep getting sync service error when trying to connect my iphone 5S.

    Keep getting sync service error when trying to connect my iphone 5S. It freezes itunes and I can't do anything else. I see that there is an update for my phone and I need to back up, upload new apps, etc before installing. I plug my phone in and get this error every time. I am using a Win 7 SP1

    Howdy Susie48825,
    It sounds like you are getting an error that mentions the sync services when you connect your phone to your computer and so you cannot sync your device. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article that  mentions an error regardign the sync services named:
    iTunes for Windows: "Unable to load data class" or "Unable to load provider data" sync services alert
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2690
    Start with these steps:
    1. Check that iTunes is up-to-date
    Ensure that you have updated to the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Reset Sync History
    Resetting your Sync History is a simple step which may resolve some syncing issues. If this works, iTunes will prompt to Merge or Replace the information on your device when you next attempt to sync. To reset your Sync History:
    Disconnect your device.
    Open iTunes.
    From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
    Click the Devices tab.
    Click the Reset Sync History button, and then reconnect your device.
    If this resolves the issue, and you know all of your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your computer:
    Reset the Sync History again using the steps above.
    Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
    Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" select Contacts or Calendars.
    Click Apply.
    If the issue persists, and you know all your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    Remove all of the contact and calendar information from Outlook.
    Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
    Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" make sure Contacts and Calendars are not selected.
    Click Apply.
    There are additional steps to use in the article if needed, but these will get you started.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    How do I decode the error messages?

    The information from a Google search indicates the error is generated when connecting to a PC share. So this may be some kind of error generated by the NAS' operating system. In any event I cannot find such an error number associated with OS X so if it is an OS X error number then it's not publicly documented. I would still think Synology's tech support should be able to help you since it is their device. If they sent you here then they're passing the buck.
