use a similar setup to vpn into the office. Looks like someone turned on
gating on a server you were either connected to or got shifted to. You did
not have the credentials to pass the gate anymore [or ever probably] and
were redirected to to the login page.

I thought you might have taken over a session floating out in the ether, but
that was too way out there.

My gut feel is that you landed on a server that was gated, or had gating
enabled mid-session with you.
