Sophos SSL VPN Client not working with Windows 8 RTM

Hi there!

I installed Windows 8 x64 Enterprise (RTM) and installed the Sophos SSL VPN Client from UTM v9. When I want to connect to a customer, the connection is running into a timeout without a single log entry. Does anyone else have this problem? Services are installed correctly. With Astaro SSL VPN Client everything is working correctly.

That's a known issue also, see my post earlier n this thread.

Hi just want to add a plus one for this. I 'm now using Windows 8 on my laptop 'in anger' to force out any wrinkles before moving other staff over. It is frustrating as I really like Windows 8 but without SSL VPN, It's a no-go for us.

What news on the fix for this as the thread seems to have been dormant for a few weeks?

Just a quick follow-up request. Can someone give a step-by-step instruction list to get the workaround going. That is the workaround which has been aluded to in some other postings on this site.

Thanks

Great! I'm afraid to ask but... when will 9.004 be released?

It is currently scheduled to be soft-released at the end of this month. Subject to change of course.

9.004 has just been soft-released and it fixed the SSL VPN issue on Windows 8.

I will update our UTM on lunch and will test it.

/edit: Yes it's working! Just download the full-client and reinstall it. The installation will keep all config-files.
