Juniper Network Connect VPN Client - Stuck on Reconnecting

[joseph.k.irvine.]

Hello,

We are using the Juniper Network Connect VPN Client, version 7.4, to connect to a VPN. Recently the software has quit working. Every time we go to connect from an organizational machine, it gets never finishes the connection and gets stuck in a "reconnecting" loop. We are running Windows 7 Pro on the desktops in question.

We have determined that it is, in fact, the set of machines we are using with our organization. When installing the client on a different machine not managed by the organization we can connect fine, ruling out issues with individual accounts or network/firewall issues.

I believe it was probably a group policy that was pushed. Our organization is so large that finding out who changed what is taking a while. Curious if anyone has ever seen any registry settings or GPOs related to this. I have attached two screenshots we see in the logs while the reconnecting loop is in progress. Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you,

Joseph Irvine

Found the answer. Wound up running the follow as a BATCH script.

reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Ciphers" /f
reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Hashes" /f
reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols" /f

exit

Thank you,
