 Cisco ASA WebVPN – Clientless SSL user sessions keeps dropping
I am having an issue where a Cisco ASA configured with WebVPN (Clientless SSL) user access. Connection via NT domain authentication is successful, and it is possible to browse a CIFS share, however randomly (4 secs to about a minute) the session is terminated with an idle timeout message. I have captured a debug on the ASA and I have the following message: 'webvpn_session.c:http_webvpn_destroy_session[911]' The idle timeout has not been set so would default to the minimun of 30mins, therefore it is not this default idle timeout which is ending the session. Has anyone got WebVPN on an ASA working and/or had this issue? Ta.

Answer Wiki:
I have found the answer: I tested an SSL clientless session using a local account and the session stayed active, I discovered that the problem was that the AD machine had been configured with a name (not IP address) and DNS was not set-up for clientless SSL user sessions, once this was updated on the ASA, the sessions stayed active using AD.
