[vpn-help] Question about client

[Greg Julius]

The short answer is no.

The question is asked often enough.  Storing the userid and password do create security issues so it is not implemented (that's my understanding).

They do have a credential manager (Install time option on the beta 2.2.0) that can use the same credentials that you use to logon the system.  It can take those credentials, set up the VPN connection, and then windows can log you in.  Takes a Win Vista or higher machine.  Also, the credential manager is not in the "soon to be released" update but I expect that it will be in shortly after that.

Subject: [vpn-help] Question about client

My problem or question has to do with the shrewsoft client.  We were sent in your direction to update a VPN Client that is no longer supported, so we downloaded and setup your product on our units.  Is there any way to embed the credentials in the shrewsoft VPN client so that we don't have to keep entering them?  On the previous VPN Client we could set it up and all they had to do was click the connect button.
