Hi,

our company moved from Cisco to Juniper and I'd like to have VPN connection started via script so I can route only necessary traffic thru tun.

I can successfully connect to Juniper via Firefox, however running it from cli gives following (replaced real values with fake ones) -

Code:

./ncsvc -h xyz.xxx.com -u user -p password -r Realm -f ~/my_cert.crt -L 5

ncsvc.log
Code:

20081004175423.224318 ncsvc[1182] dsclient.info <-- 200  (authenticate.cpp:168)

Would anyone know how to fix this?

Code:

$ ./ncsvc -v

Ok i spent a lot of time messing around with this because I never knew i could start this thing from the command line.

First i assume you were able to connect via the site, have tun probed and probably rpm installed. Also i have no idea how you installed the program.

Now with that said I used this script http://mad-scientist.us/junipernc to "install" the command line app, after that i was able to run the application. I had some minor issues with the realm but that caused a different error that what you revived.

So I guess my question to you is how did you install? Did you use the script above, did you hack it manually?

Thanks KWhat for looking into this - here's my answers

Yes, I can connect via browser no problem, tun device runing. On first login via browser it installed required libraries into ~ folder.

I followed steps described here - http://www.juniperforum.com/index.php/topic,5455.0.html - will try the script in the evening as I'm at different machine at the moment.

I've tried the script, but still getting the same error :(

I've doublechecked all values several times and they are corretly defined in the script itself.

The ive errors i was getting prior to this working were related to two issues. Invalid Realm and Invalid Cert. I would double check both, make sure you get your realm off the web page you sign in at.

One more interesting tidbit of information:
Quote:
You will encounter this mysterious error if you have /etc and /tmp mounted on different partitions. I typically mount /tmp as a separate partition so that random users and processes can't fill my whole root disk. Guess I won't be doing that until Juniper releases a fix for this.
