Version 3.2.2 bug fixes
NOTE
In some cases, the installation of the SN SSL VPN Client in Windows 10 or 11 may fail. If you are affected by this issue, contact Stormshield support (support refer 84756).
Installation
Installation on Windows user profiles that contain spaces
Support reference 85042
An issue that prevented the SN SSL VPN Client from being installed, due to a space in the profile of the Windows user, has been fixed. This issue occurred particularly when the settings for short name behavior (8dot3 name) were disabled in Windows.
Deployment via GPO
Support reference 85010
An issue made the deployment of the SN SSL VPN Client difficult via GPO if an earlier version had been installed manually on the user's workstation.
This issue has been fixed for future deployments: if a version equal to or higher than 3.2.2 has been installed manually on the workstation, a version higher than the original will be deployed normally via GPO.
If a version older than version 3.2.2 has been installed manually on the workstation, a version equal to or higher than 3.2.2 will be deployed via GPO, but the user's workstation must be restarted.
Multifactor authentication - OTP
Execution of an opening script
Support reference 84754
Users needed to authenticate a second time in order to open the VPN tunnel when both of these elements were configured:
-
OTP authentication,
-
A script created via the Windows notepad, which had to be run when the SSL VPN connection started.
This issue has been fixed.
System
Shutdown of the VPN tunnel
Support reference 85070
When CPU consumption reached 100% on the Windows workstation for 2 seconds, SN SSL VPN Client considered that Windows was no longer responding, and would then shut down the VPN tunnel.
To reduce the frequency of these shutdowns, the duration has been increased from 2 to 60 seconds, and can be configured individually by user in the following Windows registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Stormshield\STORMSHIELD SSL VPN CLIENT\living_timeout.
