Start Before Login (User Auth)

hypex

Hi,

Any idea if Start Before Login user authentication is on the development map for the Connect client?

I need users to be able to authenticate with user credentials to establish a tunnel before entering windows credentials at the login screen.

Please note I'm not after a OpenVPN running as a service.

Its blocking us from moving to your Business Cloud solution and being asked to consider Cisco AnyConnect with SBL, NetMotion, etc.

Hi!

As far as I know, that's not possible at the moment (refer to: https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-gui/issues/77). :-)

Regards!

Hello,
I have tried using SBL functionality but since my VPN server requires an interactive username and password, I cannot connect the VPN before Windows login. I have even tried putting a key.txt file but it is not what I need and it does not work either.
Could someone help me please?

I have used that information for try to connect:

Can't help with OpenVPN, we end up moving to Palo Alto - Global Protect to solve the issue.
