Problems using Forticlient with MAC OSX Monterey

[fleminsa]

I am unable to launch Forticlient with MAC OS Monterey.  Whenever I try to connect I get the prompt, open security & privacy settings and allow system software from Fortitray.  When I go there there isn't anything for me to allow fortitray.

I had a similar issue when a couple vendors using MAC OS Monterey needed VPN accounts.

I followed this article for reference.

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.0.1/macos-release-notes/223986/special-notices

The steps I followed from the article to resolve my issue were to allow FortiClient and fctservctl2 Full Disk Access. FortiClient was already in the list, but I had to add fctservctl2 by clicking the add button and navigating to /Library/Application\ Support/Fortinet/FortiClient/bin/

Tried that.  Same issue.

That doesn't work on MacOS Monterey 12.4 and FortiClient 7.0.5.0166.

The strange thing is that it doesn't matter if you put correct or incorrect values in the username and password, it always returns the same message, I think it doesn't even try to make the request to the server, it is stopped before by the certificate (which certificate? I have no idea).

Cheers,

Done...

What about allowing the FortiTray to load?

[fleminsa]

That doesn't show up at all.  

[Altheman]

If you go to System Preferences and then Security & Privacy is the Allow option available for "FortiTray"?

[fleminsa]

No.  What you circled is not there nor is the statement system software from application fortitray was blocked from loading.
