tsclient not doing anything

g’day everyone.

This is my first post. Just installed 11.0 and like every bit of it (except wireless but thats’ differnet story :))

I used to be able to do the following on Suse 10.3. After installing Suse 11.0 tsclient does nothing.

To log on to work server first I got to our https://remotecon.aaa.bbb.ccc site and log-in using a userid and RSA securID and establish a SSL VPN session.
Then start a juniper session. which tells me that the work sever a.b.c.d on port 3389 mapped to my local ip 127.0.1.13.

Open tsclient . Put 127.0.1.13, uid / pwd/ domain etc. Hit enter and I (used) to have a remote session to work.

tsclient neither errors nor displays a remote session. Only thing I can do is kill it from process list.

Another thing I observed, even if I have not initiated ssl vpn session, it successfully pings to that ip address (in fact any ip in 127.0.1.x)

any help appreciated.

cheers

127.x.x.x is always pingable because it is considered your loopback.
Consider the following from ip route sh:

127.0.0.0/8 dev lo scope link

and ip addr sh:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue
~ link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
~ inet 127.0.0.1/8 brd 127.255.255.255 scope host lo
~ inet6 ::1/128 scope host
~ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

You could try throwing tcpdump up and watching your ‘lo’ interface to
see if tsclient was properly sending data there. My guess is your
SSLVPN client is not catching those properly and forwarding them on.

tcpdump -i lo -s 0 -w /tmp/outfile.cap

Good luck.
