Unfortunately, the program doesn't work, though maybe it does now. That actually took years to find, but has floated closer to the surface now, and actually shows up on page 2. KernSafe TotalMounter was completely cut off from all search results, and I found it in some obscure forum, pages down in the thread. The other intense one was finding a free optical drive emulator that supports 'burning' to a disk image. But now it's the first link that comes up. It's the closest thing to kernel-level graphics card emulation that I know of. One that you can run from within the operating system, not something embedded into VirtualBox or QEMU or something. It can't touch how intense it was trying to find a graphics emulator 6 years ago. Ok, it wasn't a particularly intense searching effort, but it's still good to post how you find things.

So I downloaded the PDF (, opened it, and Ctrl+F'ed for 'Linux'.

But then I decided to look back at it after a few bogus sites that simply use your search words as tags (I detest those sites! :evil:), and in the 'sample snippet' of this PDF link, I saw 'Installing the stand alone FortiClient SSL VPN Client for Linux 1. Thinking it was nothing, I skipped over it. I searched 'forticlient for linux' on Bing, and the fourth link was to a PDF. Here was the story of finding it, if you like acquiring searching skills: In that PDF is where I found the link to the actual thing.

You won't have to compile anything.ĭownload this PDF:, it has instructions on how to get Forticlient for Linux working. Well, I'll keep searching, and let y'all know if I find it.ĭon't worry, it's not source code, despite the file extension. The operating system really is running the Windows program (shows up in gnome-system-monitor), unlike if you used a virtual machine to do the job. It stands as a translator between the Windows program and the operating system. It 'merely' translates program calls from Windows form to 'Unix-like' form and back. Remember that WINE is not a virtual machine or an operating system in an operating system. Kernel-level code must be written for the kernel it is to work with. That means it can't work in WINE, unless WINE does something very interesting. ''linux' site:*.' at Google and Bing yielded no results.įorticlient actually inserts kernel-level code to emulate a modem (yes, actual kernel-level hardware emulation).

I tried using their search box searching for 'Linux', but their search bar is broke. Oddly, if one goes to the Forticlient website, there is no link, or link to a link, or link to a link to a link that lets you download the Linux version. I am still searching for the Foriclient for Linux. First, I found the ucalgory one, but again, a username / password prompt. Jeabus's link gave me a username/ password prompt as well.
