Hi!

I use Foticlient to acces to my corporate network.

 

My private certificate is installed in a smart card USB (Yubikey NEO) in the PIV applet.

I have the problem when the VPN client make the conection that ask me many times the PIN, because the serveral conection stages of the client. The question is: there are any solution for that the client ask me the PIN only the first time only in each connection?

 

I work with Windows 7/x64 Thanks in advance. Best regards.

    What version of FortiClient are you using? IPSec or SSL?

     

    FortiClient 5.2.5 is the latest release. You can give it a try.

    Thanks for your response.

     

    I had an older version of FortiClient and I updated it to the 5.2.5 version. I use a VPN SSL connection.

     

    But the problem persists. When I use the smart card with my certificate, it asks me up to 7 times the PIN in the connection process.

     

    Any idea?

     

    Bests regards.
