Microsoft has admitted that issues affecting Always On VPN were not fixed in the October Security Update, according to a report from The Register. The company's acknowledgment undercuts hopes that the monthly patch cycle would finally resolve the lingering problems for VPN users.
The report does not detail the exact nature of the failures or which configurations are affected, but it is clear that Microsoft is treating the situation as unresolved. The Register notes that the October update was expected to address the complaints, yet Microsoft now says the issues persist.
With no word in the source about when a proper fix will ship, administrators relying on Always On VPN are left waiting. The Register's coverage suggests this is not the first time Microsoft has said a fix was coming, and the latest admission will likely frustrate enterprise IT teams further.
