Hi there, We have a Fortigate-60 unit which we are using for SSL VPN connections. While trying to Remote Desktop into a server in Web mode, we keep getting the following error: “Connection Exception. SSL negotiation failed, please check your Fortigate configuration”. I have attempted to attach a screenshot, but am getting website errors. How shall we go about resolving this error? Thanks for your time
