Unable to set a new password after an administrative password reset #778

I detected it's currently not possible with this client to be prompted to set a new password after an user password is administratively reset, for instance when an user is unblocked.

In such cases the client shows an authentication error:

ERROR:  Could not authenticate to gateway. Please check the password, client certificate, etc.

I had to manage this situation using the FortiClient official application in Windows OS.

I attach a verbose output, already cleaned up from any sensitive information. openforticlient_out_github.txt

It would help to have a log from the FortiClient official application, especially sslvpn.log which may show the URLs that are used for password reset. That may help anyone interested in implementing password reset.
