Hi everybody! I’m wanting to create a new hostchecker policy that checks if certain software is executing on the PC when the vpn connection is requested.   I created a hostchecker policy type “Custom Rule: Process”, in process name I specificated the process name and then added the md5 and sha256 checksums from the .exe file. I used the utility Get-FileHash of Windows Powershell to get the hashes. I've also used the tool provided in this KB Pulse Secure Article: KB16195 - How to create a MD5 checksum for Host Checker process checks. But the hostchecker fails, from the log the message is “Necessary process not found, or checksum does not match”. The issue is related with checksum. If I don't specificate the md5/sha256 checksums, the hostchecker pass. I’ve calculated the checksums in three different PC and it’s always the same. Anybody knows how pulse or hostchecker is doing the checksum o where I can find this value in log? Many thanks. ... View more

Hello team,   I've few users that hostchecker fails with error "Server has not received any information for this policy".   Access is through browser (Chrome and Edge Chrome) and OS is Windows 10. PCS server is 9.1R11.4 All componens (PSAL, hostchecker...) have been uninstalled and installed on users PC.   All information that I've found is about MacOS, nothing Windows. What could be happenning? Thanks! ... View more

Hi team,   I’m trying the following configuration, ¿is it possible? I don't know if there is any incompatibilty.   Always ON VPN + machine authentication + secondary user authentication (LDAP) Which I want is that our laptops establish the vpn connection during startup based on machine authentication (when the user haven’t login in windows yet). When the user logins in Windows, the vpn connection (created by machine)  is replaced with a vpn based on user credentials. As these docs explain: https://docs.pulsesecure.net/WebHelp/PDC/9.0R1/Content/PDC_AdminGuide_9.0R1/Machine_and_User_Authentication_1.htm https://docs.pulsesecure.net/WebHelp/PDC/9.0R1/Content/PDC_AdminGuide_9.0R1/Pulse_Connection_is_Established_3.htm -> Figure 66 and Figure 68 I could not get it to work. Analyzing logs I can see the PSA checks the certificate, the primary authentication is successful, and then PSA try to validate user/pass, but the user hadn’t login yet, failling. The first VPN connection based only on machine authentication doesn’t establish. When the user logins in windows, then the VPN is established.   2021-02-03 14:10:06 - ive - [10.16.0.30] Default Network::user(REALM_XXX)[] - Login failed using auth server Local_auth_server (Local Authentication).
