Ubuntu 17.10 GUI problem when connecting to Juniper/Pulse VPN

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Dan,

Thank you for your time on this.

I didn't build OpenConnect, I installed it with simple "apt install" on 
Ubuntu 17.10. I have no PPAs or any other extra software sources added, 
only what comes with a fresh Ubuntu install.


sudo apt install openconnect
sudo apt install network-manager-openconnect
sudo apt install network-manager-openconnect-gnome


openconnect --version

OpenConnect verzi?: v7.08
GnuTLS haszn?lata. A k?vetkez? jellemz?i vannak: PKCS#11, RSA software 
token, HOTP software token, TOTP software token, Yubikey OATH, System 
keys, DTLS

(sorry it's in Hungarian but you understand the important part)


dpkg -l | grep openconnect

ii libopenconnect5:amd64???????????? 7.08-1? amd64 open client for Cisco 
AnyConnect VPN - shared library
ii network-manager-openconnect?????? 1.2.4-1 amd64 network management 
framework (OpenConnect plugin core)
ii network-manager-openconnect-gnome 1.2.4-1 amd64 network management 
framework (OpenConnect plugin GNOME GUI)
ii openconnect?????????????????????? 7.08-1? amd64 open client for Cisco 
AnyConnect VPN


Hope this helps. Anything else I can do please let me know.

Thank you
P?ter

When I want to connect, it gets the login form, which contains a domain selector drop-down. The problem is, I can not select what I want. The options are there, but when I click my selection, it gets reset (first option becomes selected again) and the focus jumps on the next field. I tried using the keyboard, tried filling out the rest of the form first, but to no avail. I also noticed that every time I pull down the list, a new icon appears on the launch bar.
