Getting Juniper Network Connect VPN Client Running on Mac OS X 10.6+

Network Connect Download Mac Os X 10 12 Download

There are a number of problems getting the Juniper Network Connect VPN client running on the Mac. The permissions on directories are not correct after install, there are issues with the 64 bit kernel, problems if VMWare or Parallels is installed, etc. These instructions are the result of research I did to get Network Connect 6.2.0 running on OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). If you have Network Connect installed already you should uninstall it completely.

To Remove Network Connect
You may not have some of the files listed to run or remove and you can just skip those steps. You should review these steps carefully particularly if you have other Juniper products installed. They remove directories that may include installations of other Juniper products. These instructions should be run from your home directory.

Oct 06, 2020 Mac mini introduced in early 2009 or later iMac introduced in mid 2007 or later Mac Pro introduced in early 2008 or later Xserve models introduced in early 2009. To find your Mac model, memory, storage space, and macOS version, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu. If your Mac isn't compatible with OS X Yosemite, the installer will let. Jul 31, 2020 Make sure that your Mac can connect to the Internet. If you're not prompted to choose a Wi-Fi network during startup, move your pointer to the top of the screen, then choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu, if available. Press Command-R at startup to try using the built-in Recovery system instead of Internet Recovery.

To Install Network Connect

Mac Os X Download

  1. Download NetworkConnect.dmg. I was unable to get the applet installer from the VPN login to work correctly. You can download the dmg file directly from your vpn site. Add the path “/dana-cached/nc/NetworkConnect.dmg” to your VPN URL. If your VPN login is at https://vpn.mycompany.com/… then you would download from https://vpn.mycompany.com/dana-cached/nc/NetworkConnect.dmg. You may have to login to the VPN site to access the download.
  2. Open NetworkConnect.dmg and run the installer. If you get an error saying there is already a version installed do the uninstall steps above.
  3. sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/juniper/nc/[version number]
  4. sudo mkdir ‘/Applications/Network Connect.app/Contents/Frameworks’
  5. If you have VMWare or Parallels installed you will have to deactivate the network interfaces they add. If you don’t do this you will probably be able to connect but have a very high packet loss rate. You may have similar issues with other products that interact with routing. To do this go to ‘System Preferences -> Network’ and change ‘Configure IPv4’ to ‘off’ for these extra interfaces. They will typically be named something like ‘Ethernet Adaptor (en2)’. Entries like these in the Network Connect log are indicative of this type of problem:
  6. sudo chmod 4711 /usr/local/juniper/nc/[version number]/ncproxyd
  7. If your kernel is running in 64 bit mode you will have to change it to 32 bit mode. This may no longer be true with newer versions of Network Connect but it is for version 6.2.0. You can change the kernel to 32 bit mode temporarily by shutting down then holding the 3 and 2 keys down while starting up.

You should now be able to launch Network Connect from Applications. Since you did not use the applet installer you will have to enter your VPN URL. This does not include the path part of the URL. For example: https://vpn.mycompany.com.
