Vpn auto connect

Hi, I were using the VPN auto Connect script from Fardjad's blog.
on i
o
on idle
          tell application “System Events”
                    tell current location of network preferences
                              set myConnection to the service “VPN”
                              if myConnection is not null then
                                        if current configuration of myConnection is not connected then
                                                  connect myConnection
                                        end if
                              end if
                    end tell
                    return 120
          end tell
end idle
It worked fine until I updatetd to 10.7.3 and beyond.

I recommend that you check the network traffic by using either Wireshark or Fiddler to see what's going on with the request.

  • VPN auto connect leads problem when accessing the private url in my app through HttpClient

    Hi,
    I have app to execute my WCF service through HttpClient(). I configured my SSL VPN in sonicwall mobile connect with auto connect option. So when accessing my internal WCF service, Wp 8.1 asks the VPN connection screen. If I follow the screen, VPN
    has connected and return to my App. But here I received "An error has ocurred. While sending request to server" in Wp 8.1 screen. Even if I debug through visual studio I couldn't catch or track the actual error in code. Below the code I am using
    for your reference. Kindly help me in this regard.
    try
    HttpClientHandler handler = new HttpClientHandler(); ;
    handler.AllowAutoRedirect = false;
    HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient(handler);
    httpClient.MaxResponseContentBufferSize = 256000;
    HttpResponseMessage response = await httpClient.GetAsync("http://172.0.0.11/xxxxx/Service1.svc/xxxxCheck/" + usr.username + "/" + App.DeviceId + "/" + usr.password);
    response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();

  • Feature Request: vpn auto-connection on WiFi-connect

    Hello,
    since a short time I use my iPod touch with firmware V2.2 in combination with a commercial vpn-provider.
    My problem now is that the iPod doesn't automatically connect to the vpn server when it establishes a wifi-connection. But as soon as the wifi-connection has been established it automatically retrives new mails and the mail retrieval will be done using a non-secure internet connection.
    This is a big security issue and I can't find a solution for it using the current firmware.
    I hope that it will be considered within a following firmware release.
    Best regards,
    Marcell

  • SR520 Auto Reconnect VPN Remote Connection

    Hi,
    I am new to the SR520 router, and I have gotten the vpn server and remote to work. We have 3 of these routers, one at our corporate site, and one at each of our remote sites. The VPN's work good, but I would like them to auto-reconnect because we have some voice traffic that needs to pass over them, and the staff is not very capable of using the connection tool. Is this possible? Is there a time out on them that I can remove?
    I have only used the Cisco Configuration Assistant to configure them, and when I used the command line, the vpn's wouldn't work.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Addis and I connected with Andy Hickman who share the following that could work for this.
    To keep the tunnel up you can use the auto connect feature of EZVPN.  This is pretty straight forward, just do the following:
    Starting from a standard configuration built by CCA1.9 for remote access, use the following to allow the remote router to connect automatically to the UC500 VPN server.
    On the UC500, add the following configuration via CLI:
    crypto isakmp client configuration group EZVPN_GROUP_1
      save-password
    On the remote device (870 or SR520), add the following configuration via CLI:
    crypto ipsec client ezvpn EZVPN_REMOTE_CONNECTION_1
      username password
    It is also strongly recommended that password encryption is configured on the remote device:
    password encryption aes
    key config-key password-encrypt

  • When I login to Horizon View, it shows me the list of desktops to connect to. If I'm entitled to only one desktop then can View auto connect me to that desktop instead of me clicking on Connect?

    When I login to Horizon View, it shows me the list of desktops to connect to. If I'm entitled to only one desktop then can View auto connect me to that desktop instead of me clicking on Connect.

    Yes you certainly can.
    Right click any desktop in the list > Settings > in the left pane select the desktop you want to auto connect to > check "Auto connect to this desktop".

  • How to auto-connect to external server upon startup?

    Is there a way that a user could by-pass "Connect to Server" and have the workstation auto-connect to an external, but in-house server each time the work-station is booted up? Also, is there a way to have it connect to this server without having to enter a password each time? Thanks in advance.

  • ASA 5505 & VPN Cellular connection

    We have a ASA 5505 setup with VPN and using Cisco client 5.0. The VPN works without a problem if we use normal internet access (from home, motel, etc). However if we use a cellular wi-fi hotspot or tether a phone it will connect to the vpn but will not allow us to get on the office network. Anyone have this problem or know a solution

    Hello greentw1972,
    I have ran in to this issue several times. This is mainly caused by Cisco VPN client's compatibility issues with the 3G-Dongle/Tethering-device. I have seen several workarounds for this but the best one I have found is to use a Open source vpn client.
    I have used Shrewsoft VPN client and it has worked nicely without any issues so far
    Find the links below for further information.
    The 3rd link will show you how exactly you need to transfer information from Cisco VPN client to Shrewsoft client.

  • Macbook Pro no longer auto-connects to preferred network

    The title says it.
    While my computer connects automatically to some (maybe all but one) of my preferred networks, it now does not connect, annoyingly, to the one I use the most often (let's call it NET).
    I've triple checked that it's preferred and should connect automatically, and the computer remembers the password, so that if I manually select NET, it connects no problem. But:
    a) It won't auto-connect to NET, and
    b) If I turn my computer on, when it presents the list of networks to me, I have to wait for it to reload the list, cause if I click on NET originally, it doesn't connect, and I have to refresh the list and try again.
    c) Figured that might mean that it's just taking longer to load the networks and is showing me a list before it's actually picked up on the networks, but waiting forever doesn't make it autoconnect; it just refreshes the list.
    Any ideas? This is a huge pain.

    No idea. You could try deleting the file
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    ... and restart your Mac.
    To find that file quickly, select the above path (triple-click the line), control-click to bring up the contextual menu, and select Services > Reveal. Drag that file to the Desktop, or directly to the Trash.
    This will completely erase your AirPort network preferences, requiring that you select your Wi-Fi network and authenticate again.
    What OS X version are you using, and are you using an Apple AirPort Base Station, or a third party product?

  • No auto-connect on start-up or restart (iMac)

    Just an update on my problem. I too had problems with auto-connect to my network router after sleep, due to download of update 10.7.3. Worked with Apple Tech Support and local Apple Store to resolve problem - Tech Support representative and FAQ contributors alerted me to the availability of latest WIFI Update, which I downloaded and installed. Update DID resolve auto-connect problem for my system's "awake-from-sleep" mode, BUT it then began a SPORADIC no-connect problem upon startup and restart. I've reported this problem to the Tech Support representative, and she said she would alert the appropriate system teams of this problem.
    I'm no software expert, but I believe the problem may be tied, in some way, to that part of the OS that triggers not only network card drivers, but also Bluetooth connectivity, clock activation, and any other sub-system icon displayed in the upper-right corner of the desktop. While I can manually connect to the network, and have the connection work without dropping, it will NOT connect automatically - sometimes - upon startup and restart. It WILL work automatically upon awaking from sleep. It tries to find the network signal during startup/restart, but doesn't always connect.
    I'm thinking that if it was the drivers, themselves, for the network card that were, in some way, corrupt or incorrect, the system wouldn't connect at all ... (???)
    Anyway, it's working a little better - but it's still not fully-operable; and I'm still looking for a permanent fix from Apple. I have a feeling that one of the reasons why Apple is bringing-out Mountain Lion so soon after Lion's advent is to possibly resolve some of the problems and "quirks" folks are having with Lion. I know I've experienced other little problems since upgrading to Lion that I'm simply living with, knowing that sooner or later, a fix will be forthcoming - either by patch, update, or a new OS ...
    - Chris

    Some additional input - Just received a call from "John", Apple Tech Support, asking me to do two things in an attempt to resolve my connectivity issues.
    (1) Upon start-up, wait a minute or two to see if the network finally locks-in automatically, vice manually selecting the network connection. There may be some "priorities" being addressed via the OS wrt/ Bluetooth connections for the keyboard and mouse, that may prevent a faster lock-on by the network components. He says this sometimes manifests itself upon start-up and occasionally on restarts for some systems. It may be that, for some system configurations, Bluetooth components experience some minor interference from telephone systems or routers placed adjacent to these component locations - and since these components have "priority", system-wise, it may further delay network connectivity as well.
    (2) Drag-out an old USB keyboard (and mouse), disable your Bluetooth access, and use them in place of the wireless keyboard and mouse to see if it results in a more-positive result for network connectivity upon start-up and restart.
    Naturally, I'll give it a try, and see how it works. Told John I'd let him and Josie (another Apple Tech Support representative) know how it's working in a couple of weeks.
    Really appreciated his call - very nice of him to follow-up. I'll let you-all know how it works ...

  • TS1398 Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.2 my phone will not auto-connect to the home WiFi network.

    I upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2 and now my phone will not auto-connect to the home wifi network.  Each time I leave and return to within range of the network I have to remember to manually connect, otherwise it continues to use 4G for data.  The credentials are saved (all I have to do is tap it to connect) but just won't happen automatically any more.
    Is anyone else seeing this problem?

    Tried the reset multiple times. No go. Before the IOS 7.0,2 update my devices were connecting to home WIFI eventually.

  • Iphone 4s cannot auto connect to home wifi after updating to ios 6.1.2

    My iphone 4s will not auto connect to my home wifi after updating to IOS 6.1.2.  I can manually connect to my phone to wifi but it will get disconnect if I'mnot using the phone. Any way to reslove?

    Once the phone goes into sleep mode, it is supposed to auto disconnect from wifi to save battery. Are you saying that once you wake the phone up it will not auto connect at that time?
    Suggest you try and forget the network, then go in and try the reset network settings again and then try to rediscover the network and connect again. Have you tried to do a reset of the phone, but holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release?

  • MacBook no longer auto-connects to network after 10.4.8

    I have a MacBook and use Airport to connect to my wireless router. It always used to auto-connect to my router upon booting up. Now that I've installed the 10.4.8 update, it no longer connects automatically. I have to click on the Airport icon on the toolbar and select my network; only then will it connect.
    I have already read this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304482
    and followed its directions, but it did not solve the problem.
    (Incidentally, I do not use WPA2, just WPA Personal.)
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    From http://www.macsonly.com/ , today
    not tested :
    After we tested the latest Mac OS X update, v10.4.8, on our 2.33GHz 24" iMac Core 2 Duo, we added another user account for the long-term tester. But after a restart or cold start, the iMac would reconnect to our AirPort network but it would get assigned an internal IP address rather than one from our router so it would not connect to the internet.
    This problem could be temporarily solved by using the AirPort menu icon to turn off and then turn back on the AirPort card. This was frustrating because the original user account on our iMac continued to connect automatically to the network and internet after a restart or sleep as did all of our other Macs upgraded to 10.4.8.
    We tried everything listed by Apple in its technical support articles (e.g. Article Number 304482) and provided on other Web sites, including deleting the preferred network in the System Preferences Network pane and re-adding it. We even tried deleting every AirPort-related preference ".plist" file including the "Networkinterface.plist" as recommended on another Web site yesterday. Nothing worked.
    Then we tried a variation on Apple's suggestion and it worked. Here are the steps:
    Open System Preferences, select the Network pane and select AirPort in the "Show:" popup menu.
    Set the "By default, join:" popup menu to "Preferred networks."
    Delete the listed preferred networks using the "-" button but this time we did not add it back again with the "+" button as Apple recommends.
    Set the "By default, join:" popup menu to "Automatic."
    Restart.
    Manually rejoin the AirPort network using the AirPort menu icon, i.e. selecting the network (or selecting "Other" and typing in the network name if hidden) and typing in the WPA (or WEP) password.
    Now every time we restart our iMac, it automatically connects again to the AirPort network and gets an IP address assigned by the router so that it also connects to the internet. [Bill Fox]

  • Mail won't work when VPN is connected

    I use VPN to blog for a newspaper, from home. I don't access the company's internal mail system--I just use VPN to get through security and use wordpress on the in-house servers.
    But when I connect with VPN, mail stops working (for gmail, verizon.net, hotmail). I otherwise have full access to the internet; I can get gmail through the web, for example. But since I use Mail extensively, I'd like to be able to have it and VPN active at the same time.
    My current workaround is just to use VPN for posting, then I get out. But this is a big hassle. Is there a mail setting that I can change that will let it work while (Cisco) VPN is active?
    (I'm a freelancer using my own iMac, so I get no tech support from work.)

    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/11941.html
    Any chance that you have "Send all traffic over VPN connection" enabled ?
    I use the OSX internal VPN to connect to my Office PC and can use Mail while VPN-connected.

  • Airplay Auto-connect to Apple TV?

    Is it possible to have my Mac (running Mavericks) to auto-connect to my Apple TV?
    I use my Apple TV to extend my iMac display. However in the morning, I have to turn on my TV, turn on the Apple TV, log into my Mac and then manually connect to the Airplay display. Is there some way to simplify this process and tell it to default to a particular ATV connection when I log in?

    I just upgraded my 2014 Retina MacBook Pro to Yosemite, and was hoping now that Yosemite support PeerToPeer streaming to my ATV, that it might also allow me to auto connect. Well it didn't happen automatically. Does anybody know if there's a setting somewhere to enable this, or if this is even realistic possibility based on how AirPlay works?
