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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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 of cp
  • vpndownloader.sh is missing in 4.9.04053 so I commented out sed on it
  • icon-theme.cache exists, so rm 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:

Manjaro

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?

tr0lley commented on 2019-04-30 16:40

@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:

  1. As per @RunasSudo's instructions, you need to download anyconnect-linux64-$pkgver-core-vpn-webdeploy-k9.sh.
  2. Using your AUR client, clone the anyconnect-client package in a manner such that it prompts you to edit the PKGBUILD file. I used pacaur, so the command for me was pacaur -Sde anyconnect-client.
  3. When the PKGBUILD is opened in a text editor, go to your file explorer and navigate to your .cache folder and find the folder of your package manager. There, you will find the source folder called anyconnect-cisco. In my case, the directory was: /home/usr/.cache/pacaur/anyconnect-cisco.
  4. Copy your downloaded anyconnect-linux64-$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.
  5. In your PKGBUILD file, go the the line near the top beginning with source:. Edit the declaration of the anyconnect-...-webdeploy-k9.sh file such that it matches the filename of the file you just copied into the source folder.
  6. 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

Could you add a dependency to pangox-compat from extra ?/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpnui won't run without /usr/lib/libpangox-1.0.so
