The remote access is currently not available in Forticlient 6.0 for Linux. You can see the official compatibility chart when you scroll down in the following link: Forticlient compatibility
You can use the openfortivpn client: Installing openfortivpn
FortiClient 6.2, Fabric Agent with Endpoint Protection and Cloud Sandbox, can be purchased and the Linux version supports SSL VPN: FortiClient 6.2 Compatibility
