Hello everyone, I have a connection issue with the FortiClient VPN. I am using the Ubuntu 24.10 operating system and have installed the forticlient_vpn_7.4.0.1636_amd64.deb client. The installation has no issues, but when I try to connect using the graphical interface, it stays pending on the connection without being able to establish it. Could you please help me resolve this problem?

    From support portal (support.fortinet.com) > Downloads > Firmware Images > FortiClient.

    There you can download any version you need, however a valid contract may be required.
