VPN through Check Point
by felipeabrao from LinuxQuestions.org on (#51JS1)
Hello all!
I would like to know if there is a way of connecting a Linux client to a Windows server through a Check Point VPN. When trying to connect them, I get the following error message:
Check Point's Linux SNX
build 800007075
Please enter your password:
SNX: Access denied - User authentication failed
My ~/.snxrc file has just the following content:
server <server name>
username <user name>
reauth yes
I believe the problem has to do with the workgroup of my username, but I don't know how to fix it up. Check Point was installed in the Windows server of my company by its IT personnel. Would anyone have any sugestion, please?
Thank you very much!
