CPF with VPN & Remote Desktop combo doesn't work

Feedback/Comments/Announcements/News
#1

If I use a regular Windows VPN connection (not Cisco) and then make a Remote Desktop connection, CPF doesn’t ask to authorize the Remote Desktop connection and the Remote Desktop connection fails. Furthermore, adding a rule to allow Remote Desktop doesn’t keep CPF from blocking access and it still fails. Allowing all connections allows Remote Desktop to succeed.

Steps:

  • CPF Running @ Custom

  • Start VPN, Connect Successfully

  • Start Remote Desktop without a rule in CPF

  • No CPF popup that Remote Desktop needs authorized

  • Remote Desktop Fails

  • CPF Running @ Custom

  • Add rule to CPF for Remote Desktop (authorize all)

  • Start Remote Desktop

  • No CPF popup that Remote Desktop needs authorized

  • Remote Desktop Fails

  • CPF Running @ Allow All

  • Start Remote Desktop

  • Remote Desktop Works
