Fortinet SSL VPN Client and Ubuntu 12.04

Question

I want to install the Forticlient SSL VPN Client on Ubuntu 12.04.

I've downloaded the last version from Fortinent support site but when i try to run the installer (vía command line or gui) it simply does nothing.

I'd tried with and without sudo but nothing.

I' remember some time ago i've installed the same client in Centos all works fine.

Anyone can help me to do this?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You probably have the Ubuntu 64 bit version (at least it was my case). If so, just install the following package:

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386

Answer 2

I have had it to work. However it wants you to accept a License Agreement which it will try to open in xterm. So make sure that xterm has been installed:

sudo apt-get install xterm

Answer 3

Welcome Juan! Install openvpn first and try.To install it,type sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn in a terminal and reboot your system.I think this should solve your issue.

Answer 4

install 32-bit libralies.

$ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs-gtk

if you can run tunnel but traffic is not going through the tunnel.
