Configuring VPN connection during install

[K_W]

We' re deploying the FortiClient SSL VPN client 4.0.2281 through SCCM with a simple MSI install command but after installation the user has to fill in the server address, etc. Is there any way to install and configure it for our VPN connection at the same time? Thanks.

Try the search link at the top. I think rwpatterson has something cooked up that does something similar to what you are looking for.

Welcome to the forums. Open a file in notepad. Enter the below, changing the red text with your information. If you cut and paste, delete the green comments. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fortinet]
 
 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fortinet\SslvpnClient]
 " ServerAddress" =" " 
 " Installed" =dword:00000001
 " ServerPort" =" " 
 " KeepConnectionAlive" =" " 
 " DATA0" =" " 
 " DATA1" =" " 
 " DATA2" =" " 
 " DATA3" =" " 
 " DATA4" =" " 
 " DATA5" =" " 
 " DATA6" =" " 
 " DATA7" =" " 
 " DATA8" =" " 
 " DATA9" =" " 
 " ConnectionName" =" The name shown in the SSL VPN client"  
 
 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fortinet\SslvpnClient\Tunnels]
 
 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fortinet\SslvpnClient\Tunnels\company name]
 " Server" =" ssl.company.com:10443"  <- Your URL
 " DATA1" =" " 
 " DATA2" =" " 
 " Description" =" Tunnel to your company"  <- the description shown in the software
 " DATA3" =" " 
 " ServerCert" =" 1" 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ After entering all this, save it in a file with a .reg extension. When executing this either from the command line of from a batch file, the user will just be prompted if it' s OK to make this registry entry. That' s it Hope that helps
