Veeam Free for Windows (5.0.0.4301 Free) and VPNs

[adamdb]

Hi,
I've noticed that when I'm running my VPN client (split tunnelling mode - so only for select applications) I'm unable to invoke the backup. It seems to fail connecting on loopback (Error the requested address is not valid in this context
127.0.0.1:9395) . Only happens when VPN is up. Is there a workaround for this (I'm running expressvpn in windows 10).

I noticed the latest free version did mention some vpn enhancements but i am guessing these are to do with network selection in the settings rather than my issue.

Any advice appreciated.

Hi Adam,

I don't track any support cases related to such problem.
Mind raising the ticket so we can check scenario in depth?

/Thanks!

No problem. I wasn't sure if there was any official support for the free edition hence the post. Will raise a call.

thanks.

The free version gets support on a best effort basis over web.
