Call for testers - perl script to connect to the Juniper VPN
Hello, I wrote a Perl script to connect to the Juniper VPN from Linux. It works without Java and requires perl only. I used wireshark to analyze management protocol of the juniper binary to emulate java GUI behaviour. If you are using Juniper VPN with Java client and want to test my script - it is available at http://smallhacks.wordpress.com/2012/07/15/jvpn-perl-script-to-connect-to-the-juniper-vpn-with-host-checker-enabled/ . Comments and bugreports are welcome. Also i am going to do debian package, after some positive reports. Thank you, and I hope that it is not offtopic in this list. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Am I right in thinking that this doesn't completely replace Juniper's software, but is more akin to mad-scientist's connection script? Does that mean it's still limited to i386 architecture? signature.asc Description: Digital signature

It is more advanced then mad-scientist's connection script because it using TCP for IPC with vpn process, like native gui do. Also it is downloading client without web browser and Java. In my case it allows to connect to the VPN server with host checker enabled, what is not possible with normal command line used in mad-scientist's script. I am using it on x86_64 architecture, with ia32-libs installed and it works fine. The only problem is that this IPC communication was done only by analysing tcp dumps on my system, so I can`t guarantee that this will work with other VPN servers. This is the reason i am asking for testing. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

A couple years ago I would have been happy to test this for you, but I switched jobs and no longer have access to a Juniper VPN. But when I did, I found that there was a way to do some port forwarding on the Juniper VPN which allowed me to ssh into a Linux server from an off-site Linux client. I don't remember the term Juniper used for that function, unfortunately. -Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
