Thanks for the information Josh.

I’ll assume that you are using JSAM which will work perfectly in Windows Vista 64-bit. While on the subject, Juniper is very close to releasing a version of software that supports WSAM in a Windows Vista 64-bit platform. While Juniper has contacted me I haven’t yet had the time to reach out to them.

Thanks for the comment!

Here’s how:

As of this time the Juniper Windows Secure Application Manager (WSAM) will NOT work with Windows Vista 64bit. The Juniper Network Connect client works with Windows Vista 64bit but NOT WSAM. I understand from Juniper that they hope to have support for Windows Vista 64bit sometime in the second half of 2009. The latest release of software for the Juniper SSL VPN appliances will now properly detect the presence of Windows Vista 64bit and will alert the user that the client computer is not supported.

Unless you can talk your technical folks into setting up a separate group using the Network Connect client you’re not going to have any luck getting WSAM to work on Vista 64.

Good Luck!

There are bunch of folks in our office with Vista 64 bit Home premium OS desperately trying to figure out a way to get the WSAM to work. I called Juniper couple of weeks ago and the tech support guy was so ignorant that he said WSAM is a Microsoft product and I should be contacting Microsoft for the support. Our own tech support guys simply say that Juniper doesn’t work on 64 bit OS. As per your latest update, it should be working on 64 bit too now. Can you please provide the settings/configuration changes that need to be made in order for the Juniper WSAM to work on 64 bit Vista Home Premium. After I log in, I get a message saying please wait for the application to launch and then displays a blank page. I don’t see the blue icon in the task tray indicating the application is not launched.
Thanks a lot in advance.

I’m continually amazed at the amount of traffic to this post. It seems like there are a lot of folks out there trying to understand why the Juniper client doesn’t perform as advertised.

As I mentioned above the Network Connect client will work with Windows Vista 64bit.

Thanks for the comment!

I work for a major Belgian bank and we’ve been having this issue for over half a year now. According to juniper everything should work fine.

We did manage to get WSAM working on the regular 32 bit Vista. You just have to disable the UAC there.

You can find their post under KB12097. Unfortunately, they still haven’t updated their Supported Platforms documents.

I’m now waiting on the Juniper sales team (not sure how it became a sales team issue but that’s where the Juniper TAC sent the problem) for a response to the problem.

Good Luck!

It’s still not clear on Juniper’s support site, but your posting saved us a lot of troubleshooting time.
