Hello, I am new to Arch Linux. I have used Linux Mint for a year and have been learning Arch for about a month now.
- UCL VPN Linux - Cisco AnyConnect Sep 23, 2017. I haven’t had time to troubleshoot this on Manjaro, but the following command installs the Pango Library, so.
- This article describes how to configure and use a L2TP/IPsec Virtual Private Network client on Arch Linux. It covers the installation and setup of several needed software packages.
- Complete Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client for Windows, Mac OS X 'Intel' and Linux (x86 & x64) platforms for Cisco IOS Routers & ASA Firewall Appliances. Release Date: 22nd May 2017 Version: 4.4.03034 Files included: - anyconnect-win-4.4.03034-predeploy-k9.zip – Installation files for Windows platforms. anyconnect-macos-4.4.03034-predeploy-k9.dmg – Installation package for Mac OS X.
I am trying to configure my computer to connect to my school's VPN so that I may connect to a remote computer from my home. I was directed to visit vpn.csulb.edu and install the AnyConnect VPN through the website, but the automatic installer does not work with my computer, so I must use the manual installer.
The manual installer tells me to download a file called 'vpnsetup.sh'. I have made the file executable:
and I run it using
However, when I do so I get the following error:
I have been researching the switch from rc.d to systemd and I am aware that the old rc.d files no longer work with arch, so it is my understanding that the vpnsetup.sh installer will not work with Arch unless I am to enable something with systemctl that allows rc.local scripts to run. I am not entirely sure how to enable rc scripts to work though.
I also do not have any directory called /etc/rc.d in the /etc/ folder, so I am not sure if that is an issue.
If there is an alternative to configuring a VPN that does not depend on the use of this .sh script I am also open to that. I have read the ArchWiki page on OpenConnect which talks about installing NetworkManager and nm-applet, but I am unsure on how to connect to the VPN address using this applet. I also lose my regular internet connection when using the applet. I believe this has to do with running both NetworkManager along with wifi-menu poses some sort of problem.
So if anyone were able to direct me to a resource or help with either a.) fixing the rc.d problem or b.) configuring a VPN through NetworkManager or wifi-menu I would appreciate it greatly.
Thank you!

To build, download anyconnect-linux64-$pkgver-core-vpn-webdeploy-k9.sh
and place it with the sources, and adjust the PKGBUILD pkgver
as appropriate.

I was able to update the PKGBUILD
for pkgver=4.9.04053
, fixing @japhir 's errors among others:
${INSTALL} -D
icons instead ofcp
vpndownloader.sh
is missing in 4.9.04053 so I commented outsed
on iticon-theme.cache
exists, sorm
it from the package (re-created anyway when updating the icon cache)- fix
manifesttool
symlink to not point into$pkgdir
(?) after package install
This worked for me:

I just tried updating to pkgver=4.9.04043
but it seems to crash. I've downloaded the new anyconnect-linux64-4.9.04043-core-vpn-webdeploy-k9.sh
file through my university website, changed the pkgver in the PKGBUILD
in ~/.cache/paru/clone/anyconnect-client
and tried to run makepkg -si, resulting in the following output:
EDIT: for now I've quickly just run the script as the user manual says, but that means that it's installed some files in /opt that pacman doesn't know about :(. I'll have to sort out that mess in the future.

FYI: it also worked to build the package with the anyconnect-linux64-$pkgver-core-vpn-webdeploy-k9.sh
file found on the Internet, and then run the scriptWithAMoreRecentVersion.sh
file provided by the admin.

I installed the packaged according to @trOlley without issue - thanks for that clarification. The app crashed immediately on startup for me. I had to install gtk2
to resolve the crash at startup and webkit2gtk
to successfully connect. Don't forget to start/enable vpnagentd.service
.

I only have 'predeploy' versions from my employer. (anyconnect-linux64-4.7.04056-predeploy-k9.tar.gz) What's the difference to 'webdeploy', and can I still use this package with it?

@dfjigdfijgojio What wasn't clear to me at the beginning was where to put the anyconnect-...-webdeploy-k9.sh
file, but I've worked it out! Here are the steps I took:
- As per @RunasSudo's instructions, you need to download
anyconnect-linux64-$pkgver-core-vpn-webdeploy-k9.sh
. - Using your AUR client, clone the
anyconnect-client
package in a manner such that it prompts you to edit the PKGBUILD file. I used pacaur, so the command for me waspacaur -Sde anyconnect-client
. - When the PKGBUILD is opened in a text editor, go to your file explorer and navigate to your .cache folder and find the folder of your package manager. There, you will find the source folder called
anyconnect-cisco
. In my case, the directory was:/home/usr/.cache/pacaur/anyconnect-cisco
. - Copy your downloaded
anyconnect-linux64-$pkgver-core-vpn-webdeploy-k9.sh
file into this directory. Take notice that the$pkgver
part in your file's name will (probably) have something else in place. - In your PKGBUILD file, go the the line near the top beginning with
source:
. Edit the declaration of theanyconnect-...-webdeploy-k9.sh
file such that it matches the filename of the file you just copied into the source folder. - Write out the changes you made to the PKGBUILD and close the file. Your AUR manager will do the rest and (hopefully) install the anyconnect-client.
Hopefully this helps someone out there :)

Where can I get the 'anyconnect-linux64-$pkgver-core-vpn-webdeploy-k9.sh' from? I can download from Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client a pkg and two differnt tars. None of them contains the webdeploy shell script that I need.

Manjaro Anyconnect App
Thanks for the awesome package! It saved me so much work.
BTW, I'd also suggest to add pangox-compat as dep.
Manjaro Anyconnect

Manjaro Anyconnect Download
Could you add a dependency to pangox-compat
from extra
