BoilerPass puts Purdue access — VPN, SSH, files, and a remote desktop —
in one native app. Everything is self-contained: the VPN client
(openconnect) is bundled, so there is nothing else to install.
Download — pick the one file for your system
🍎 macOS (Intel or Apple Silicon — one universal build)
BoilerPass_*_universal.dmg → open it, drag BoilerPass to Applications.
🪟 Windows 10 / 11
BoilerPass_*_x64-setup.exe → run it. (.msi is only for managed/IT
installs. Also runs on Windows-on-ARM via built-in x64 emulation.)
🐧 Linux
| Your distro | Download | Install |
|---|---|---|
| Debian / Ubuntu | *_amd64.deb (or *_arm64.deb) |
sudo dpkg -i <file> |
| Fedora / RHEL / SUSE | *.x86_64.rpm (or *.aarch64.rpm) |
sudo rpm -i <file> |
| Any distro (portable) | *_aarch64.AppImage (arm64; on x86_64 use the .deb / .rpm) |
chmod +x <file>, then run |
First launch (unsigned build): macOS → right-click the app → Open;
Windows → SmartScreen → More info → Run anyway. This one-time step goes
away once the app is code-signed.
