You mean in Remote Access->Secure Configuration Verification ?
I don't have that checkbox, I only have these (all are checked):

Secure Configuration Options
*Apply Secure Configuration Verifications on Simplified mode Security Policies
*Policy is installed on all interfaces
*Only TCP/IP protocols are used

Configuration Violation Notification
*Generate log on client
*Notify the user

This is in NG FP3 (SecurePlatform), maybe we need to upgrade to NG AI
before it works?

However, I noticed another very disturbing fact today:

* My SecureClient has successfully connected.
* I terminate one of the processes I check for in SCV.
* I get the warning popup but no disconnect.
* I continue using the VPN connection.
* I disconnect the VPN connection.
* I can now connect to the VPN again without running the required process!!!
  I don't even get the warning popup. I can, in fact, terminate all required
  processes and still connect to the VPN without any warning.

Something must be cached somewhere, but I can't understand why the server's
SCV checks seem to be overridden by some cache or something like that.
Anyone have any ideas on this?
I can't believe there is as big a security bug as this, so I must be doing
something wrong in the configuration.

The ProcessMonitor section of local.scv is like this:
                : (ProcessMonitor
                        :type (plugin)
                        :parameters (
                                :Realmon.exe (true)
                                :InoRpc.exe (true)
                                :InoTask.exe (true)
                                :InoRT.exe (true)
                                :begin_admin (admin)
                                :send_log (alert)
                                :mismatchmessage ("Please check that the followi
ng processes are running: InoTask.exe, InoRT.exe, InoRpc.exe, Realmon.exe.")
                                :end (admin)
                        )
                )

And here are some other parts of local.scv:
        :SCVPolicy (
                : (user_policy_scv)
                : (sc_ver_scv)
                : (ProcessMonitor)
        )
        :SCVGlobalParams (
                :block_connections_on_unverified (true)
                :scv_policy_timeout_hours (2)
                :enforce_ip_forwarding (true)
                :enable_status_notifications (true)
                :disconnect_when_not_verified (true)
        )

Thanks!
