Clientless VPN on Mac for RDP

[JRLDavis1]

Hello.

Just wondering if anyone knows of any solutions regarding loss of java support on Chrome/Firefox etc for using RDP from a Mac, via an ASA clientless VPN.

We don't want to provide the client for user's own personal devices.

Smart Tunnel works perfectly for Windows.

At the moment, all users have had to start using Safari to run the java rdp plugin, but I imagine they may soon also kill the java plugin support.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jason Davis,

You can use Smart Tunnel application with the Microsoft Remote Desktop application on MAC:

This should be the path to the application that you need to use on the ASDM config:

/Applications/Microsoft Remote Desktop.app/Contents/MacOS/Microsoft Remote Desktop

Hope this info helps!!

Rate if helps you!!
