I have a VPN connection using the openconnect vpn, and it is managed by network manager. Works fine.
It has been on my system since the original Centos 7.x release.
Now that I have Centos 7.3, while it still works fine, I find that
I can no longer add a new connection using openconnect. I also find
that I am not allowed to edit the existing openconnect vpn definition.
attempting to create a new one lists only ipsec-based VPN as a choice,
along with "import a saved VPN configuration".
Attempting to edit the existing one pops up a little window that says:
Could not edit connection
Could not find VPN plugin for 'org.freedesktop.networkmanager.openconnect'.
yum says I have the following items installed:
yum list installed \*openconnect\*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, nvidia
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* base: centos.mirror.constant.com
* elrepo: mirrors.evowise.com
* epel: mirrors.mit.edu

* nux-dextop: mirror.li.nux.ro
* updates: mirrors.advancedhosters.com
Installed Packages
NetworkManager-openconnect.x86_64 0.9.8.6-2.el7 @epel
openconnect.x86_64 7.06-1.el7 @epel
this has worked for some long time, now, so what is wrong here? I don't think I"m
missing any packages, because "yum list available" doesn't find anything else
that seems to be needed, only -debuginfo and -devel.
Anyone got a clue for me?
thanks!
Fred
