Can't connect to vpn in Manjaro KDE Plasma
 

Hello!
Could you please give an advice how to configure VPN connection by user interface of OS.
I can do it from console by command like this:
or
I can also connect from Windows 10 using Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.
But I can’t connect by ui of Manjaro. I’ve tried several options. For example when I use vpnc without GroupPassword, it doesn’t connect and returns message:
(I watch logs with command journalctl -f _COMM=NetworkManager)
When I put there a GroupPassword it says that it is connected, but websites are not available and after 30 seconds it disconnects with message I’ve also tried different types of connection but no success. I have this options in VPN settings menu:

• Array Networks Compatible VPN (openconnect)
• Cisco AnyConnect Compatible VPN (openconnect)
• F5 BIG_IP Compatible VPN (openconnect)
• Fortinet Compatible VPN (openconnect)
• Pulse Connect Secure (openconnect)

Should I use one of this connections, or install something else?
I’ve also tried to install cisco-anyconnect from AUR, but it’s interface does not show anything.
My OS details:

• Manjaro 22.0.5 Sikaris
• KDE Plasma 5.26.5
• KDE Frameworks 5.103.0
• Qt Version 5.15.8
• Kernel Version 5.15.102-1-MANJARO (64-bit)
• Graphics Platform X11

Does you vpn provider/ workplace (?) provide .ovpn files?
This is how I always did it for cyberghost: https://support.cyberghostvpn.com/hc...etwork-Manager
Worked on various distros. Make sure to test for DNS leaks afterwards. I had problems with that in the past, since CyberGhost wouldn't offer ipv6 and it would just leak through so I had to disable it, if I remember correctly.

Finally connected!
Installed openconnect-gui

Then I switched to configuring network connections.
Click “Add Connection”.
Type: “Cisco Any Connect compatible VPN”.
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...1&d=1681903538
Entering MyVPNAddress.
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...1&d=1681903538
Save.
(ReportedOS after saving was automatically filled with “Apple iOS”)
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...1&d=1681903538
Click Connect.
Click the connect button near “VPN Host”
I got a certificate error, click OK
After that, appeared a list with the VPN server groups. I choose the desired one, entered the password (the login has already been entered). Check the boxes "Automatically start connecting next time," "Store passwords" and "View Log" and click Login.

Then the connection is successful.

It remains to figure out how to save the password not to enter it every time.

I've tried to add password in file /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/MyVPNConnection.nmconnection like:
form:main: password=MyPassword
But it disappears after trying to connect

Look into seahorse. Perhaps you haven't configured your keyring correctly

Thanks! But there is nothing there. I've tried to unlock KDEWallet and added a key for MyVPNConnection, but it didn't appear there
