Good day, We would like to use the SA portal as the primary point for remote users to go to OWA, sharepoint, terminal services, etc. The problem is that after Pulse is installed, the application launches on computer start up and users connect the Pulse VPN. Then, when they go to the Portal, the SA disconnects their current VPN session when they log into the portal to access OWA. If we resume the current session when logging into the portal, it disconnects the Pulse VPN. Should we disable the Pulse client from starting up with Windows via GPO, or is it possible to use the same session on the SA website after the Pulse session is connect? Thank you ... View more

Good morning, I would like some help answering questions on group policy and cached credentials in the below scenario please; We have field users logging into domain laptops (Windows 7 Pro) with domain user accounts using cached credentials. After logging in, the users visit a Juniper SSL VPN website, login, and a Juniper NetConnect or Pulse vpn client is launched, creating a VPN back to the main office. 1. Will the user receive GP updates shortly after the VPN is established, assuming they have a decent satelite or 3g connection? 2. If the user's password is changed, how long should we expect it to take for the laptop over the VPN to be aware of this change and ask the user to lock/unlock the computer? 3. With cached credentials, is there a limit to how many times a single user with cached credentials can log in with? 4. How can we avoid the laptop loosing it's trust relationship with the domain if only connecting via VPN (which provides access to the DC)? 5. Would you reccomend Pulse or NC? Thank you for your assistance! ... View more
