Chapter 37 Configuring Clientless SSL VPN
Configuring Application Access
Stopping Application Access Improperly
When Application Access terminates abnormally, the
hosts
file remains in a clientless SSL
VPN-customized state. Clientless SSL VPN checks the state the next time you start Application Access
by searching for a hosts.webvpn file. If it finds one, a
Backup HOSTS File Found
error message
(
Figure 37-5
) appears, and Application Access is temporarily disabled.
Once you shut down Application Access improperly, you leave your remote access client/server
applications in limbo. If you try to start these applications without using clientless SSL VPN, they might
malfunction. You might find that hosts that you normally connect to are unavailable. This situation could
commonly occur if you run applications remotely from home, fail to quit the Application Access window
before shutting down the computer, then try to run the applications later from the office.
Reconfiguring a hosts File Automatically Using Clientless SSL VPN
If you are able to connect to your remote access server, follow these steps to reconfigure the hosts file
and reenable both Application Access and the applications.
Step 1
Start clientless SSL VPN and log in. The home page opens.
Step 2
Click the
Applications Access
link. A
Backup HOSTS File Found
message appears. (See
Figure 37-5
.)

Step 3
Choose one of the following options:
•
Restore from backup
—Clientless SSL VPN forces a proper shutdown. It copies the hosts.webvpn
backup file to the
hosts
file, restoring it to its original state, then deletes hosts.webvpn. You then
have to restart Application Access.
•
Do nothing
—Application Access does not start. The remote access home page reappears.
•
Delete backup
—Clientless SSL VPN deletes the hosts.webvpn file, leaving the hosts file in its
clientless SSL VPN-customized state. The original
hosts
file settings are lost. Application Access
then starts, using the clientless SSL VPN-customized hosts file as the new original. Choose this
option only if you are unconcerned about losing hosts file settings. If you or a program you use
might have edited the hosts file after Application Access has shut down improperly, choose one of
the other options, or edit the hosts file manually. (See “
Reconfiguring hosts File Manually
