Hi, i tried to execute the command line ./forticlientsslvpn_cli ... and i got the message

Please run /opt/forticlient-sslvpn/64bit/./helper/setup to do the initial setup

I initial the setup and when i accept the license i got the error:

Do you agree with this license ?[Yes/No]Yes
touch: cannot touch '/etc/ppp/options': No such file or directory
Please install pppd, it is required by FortiClient SSLVPN!
/opt/forticlient-sslvpn/64bit/./helper//setup: 76: exit: Illegal number: -1

I tryed to install the pppd package but it didn't locate on the ubuntu 20.04 that i have.

Do you know what can i do to use the forticlient?

@hidarraga I guess you have to install the pppd binary.

apt-get install pptpd

Thank you, it works well on debian 👍

Does this work on i686 machines ?
