IE ASA and SSL VPN woes

Has anyone done IE volume 1 page 532? It’s ASA SSL vpn with the SVC. I have used sslclient-win-1.0.0.179.pkg, sslclient-win-1.0.2.127.pkg, and sslclient-win-1.1.3.173.pkg and each of them fail. using 1.0.0.179 the browser dies when it tried to download. Using the other two I just get an error pop-up that it failed. See the image below. Any ideas why? Is it a browser setting? Is it something with a windows update? Its really getting on my nerves. I’ve used scrack1 and now scrack6. Picture 17.jpg

Anyhow, I guess everyone knows what I am working on right now. I can tell you this, the anyconnect client works much better!

Group-Lock when there is no Group

Examine the output below:

asa(config-username)# group-lock value WEBVPN
WARNING: tunnel-group  does not exist
asa(config-username)# sh run username
username CISCO password FFTdXxgak9zQNzNG encrypted
username CISCO attributes
 group-lock value WEBVPN

Notice that a warning is given when a user is locked into a group that doesn’t exist. Although you receive the warning the command is still applied.

ASA tid-bit using the question mark

No idea how I overlooked this before but I used the question mark on the ASA this evening. Here is my output:

asa(config-group-webvpn)# filter ?

config-group-webvpn mode commands/options: none Specify that no webtype access-list will be used value Specify a valid webtype ACL name

configure mode commands/options: activex ActiveX filtering ftp FTP filtering https HTTPS filtering java Java filtering url HTTP filtering

Notice that I was give help for the mode I was in, config-group-webvpn mode commands/options, as well as configure mode commands/options.  Very Interesting!
