  1. Uninstall the current version of GlobalProtect, then go to https://www.net.wisc.edu/vpn/clients/ and download/install the file labeled PanGPLinux-5.1.2-c26.tgz.  This will update to version 5.1.2 of GlobalProtect.

  3. If issues continue, navigate to /opt/paloaltonetworks/globalprotect on the computer and delete the file named tca.cer.
