This process works on virtualbox and I notice in virtualbox it creates a new network interface. I don’t know how to configure permissions for that. if someone can point me in the right direction please.
Please find the logs for the vpn software Below

Most VPNs use /dev/net/tun to create network interfaces. That works fine from within a container too, so unless this one is doing something very different, that shouldn’t be the issue.
That said, the logs show it’s trying to access something related to its anti-virus and that seems to be failing. I don’t know if there’s a way to get a more useful log that actually tells you what it’s looking for. It’s quite possibly as simple as a missing dependency.
I’ve done a broad stroke and installed the entirety of gnome with
and I’ve made ubuntu sudo user and use that user to launch the program for dbus purposes
apt install gnome libxi-dev
dbus-run-session -- bash # may not be necessary if running as ubuntu user
forticlient relies for some reason on X11 extensions & gnome-keyring, it prompts a keyring password and I create it.
but I’m still battling at the same screen
looking at journalctl -fxe output. this is what I get when the SAML authentication completes
Journalctl -fxe
