MGA6-32 on Dell Latitude D600 Mate
No installation issues.
I have no experience at all with VPN's (apart from lgging into one 15 years ago), so no real testing.
It least it does not break anything in my network.

Comment 2 Herman Viaene 2018-03-01 14:02:22 CET
Found out there is a NetworkManager (mind the capitals!) which I can control with systemctl start etc... That works OK, but anything useful???
Comment 3 PC LX 2018-03-17 14:20:52 CET
Installed without issues.

Don't have any VPN that uses openconnect so can't actually test it.
networkmanager still works after a restart so, at least there is no regression on my side.

System: Mageia 6, x86_64, Plasma DE, Intel CPU, nVidia GPU using nvidia340 proprietary driver.

Packages installed:
- lib64openconnect5-7.08-1.mga6.x86_64
- networkmanager-openconnect-1.2.4-1.1.mga6.x86_64
- openconnect-7.08-1.mga6.x86_64

I do not see how I can add to what has been said, but for info:

openconnect:
This package provides a client for Cisco's "AnyConnect" VPN, which uses
HTTPS and DTLS protocols.

required by networkmanager-openconnect:
This package contains software for integrating the openconnect VPN software
with NetworkManager.

If no-one else with VPN picks this up soon, it can go as-is. Thank you both for your verifications.

Am I reading correctly???
If that is the case, must be tested with the new plasma stack

Anyone tested it with the new stack???

I have the new Qt/KDE/Plasma stack installed but I can't do more than install it and see if it break something (it didn't). I can't actually test it to see if it does what is should, connect to a VPN.

I do not think that any GUI is involved for these packages. If this is true, then the Qt5 & upwards stacks should not be relevant. (NetworkManager *does* have a GUI if you click its Systray icon; that is OK).

 lib64openconnect5-7.08-1.mga6.x86_64
 networkmanager-openconnect-1.2.4-1.1.mga6.x86_64
 openconnect-7.08-1.mga6.x86_64

This 'does it start?' test was done with all the stack updates installed, and with NetworkManager running:
 # networkmanager-openconnect
bash: networkmanager-openconnect: command not found
 # openconnect 127.0.0.1
POST https://127.0.0.1/
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:443: Connection refused
Failed to connect to host 127.0.0.1
Failed to open HTTPS connection to 127.0.0.1
Failed to obtain WebVPN cookie
 Sensible output in the circumstances.
