7.1 Customizing SSL VPN User Interface

You can customize the contents of the SSL VPN home page, the exit page, and the error messages, depending on your organization’s requirements.

7.1.1 Customizing the Home Page and Exit Page

To customize the home page, modify the /var/opt/novell/tomcat7/webapps/sslvpn/sslvpnclient.jsp file.

The home page content is displayed within the <div id=”homecontent”> tags.

To customize the Exit page, modify the /var/opt/novell/tomcat7/webapps/sslvpn/logout.jsp file.

7.1.2 Customizing Error Messages

To customize the error messages:

  1. Browse and open the following file:

    /var/opt/novell/tomcat7/webapps/sslvpn/Applet/properties/BrowserAgentMessages.properties

  2. Edit the file to modify existing error messages and to add new messages as necessary.

  3. Save and close the file.

7.1.3 Modifying Help Pages for the Customized Error Messages

To modify help pages for the customized error messages:

  1. Browse to /var/opt/novell/tomcat5/webapps/sslvpn/SSLVPNClientHelp/en/sslvpnclienthelp/xml/sslvpnclienthelp.

  2. Open sslerror.html in an HTML editor.

  3. Edit the file to modify existing error messages and to add new messages as necessary.

    For example, you could modify AM.1001: Server is not Responding to AM.1001: Unable to establish connection with the server. This changes the error message text but leaves the error number the same.

    AM.1001: Server is not Responding.

    AM.1001: Unable to establish connection with the server.

  4. Save and close the file.
