Should OpenVPN client connect to a Stormshield VPN without special configuration?

Post by OSOB » Thu Oct 14, 2021 10:09 am

I'm able to set up a Stormshield VPN client 2.9.1 under Windows, which connects successfully to the client's network. Unfortunately this client (which is based on OpenVPN) causes driver signing problems on certain Windows systems, even between common O/S versions. Stormshield clearly hasn't quite got it's act together.

They say https://documentation.stormshield.eu/SN ... ration.htm that it is compatible with... "Workstation equipped with a third-party client compatible with OpenVPN"

It doesn't work for me. I'm entering exactly the same credentials in OpenVPN, as I am in Stormshield. What am I doing wrong?
