Hi Guix,
I'm glad openconnect and network-manager-openconnect are now in Guix!
It would be nice to get it to work via network-manager, though I suppose
it's not essential.
Using openconnect directly works for me.
$ sudo openconnect vpn.somewhere.com
Trying to get it work via network-manager gives an error like so:
$ sudo nmcli con up vpn-fnb --ask
Error: openconnect failed: Could not find "openconnect" binary
A password is required to connect to 'vpn-fnb'.
Gateway (vpn.secrets.gateway):
Even though my services configuration has this vpn-plugins set.
(modify-services %desktop-services
(network-manager-service-type
config => (network-manager-configuration
(inherit config)
(dns "dnsmasq")
(vpn-plugins (list network-manager-openconnect))
))
Anyone else seen this?

Cc’ing bug-guix@gnu.org
I suspect something like the attached patch would help (and expand the
closure of network-manager to always include openconnect).
To test, follow section “Building from Git” from the manual or Laura’s
video 04-packaging-part-one.webm from
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2019-07/msg00249.html>,
but after the initial clone command, do
git apply the-attached.patch
Then after make, do
sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm
(or whatever your configuration file is called). I cannot test right
now and have never used openconnect. It is quite possible I made a
mistake.
Regards,
Florian

Something I don’t get: why does NM itself know about openconnect?
There’s a network-manager-openconnect plugin, so I would expect
everything openconnect to happen there. Do you know why it’s not that
way?
Thanks,
Ludo’.

I don’t know. The patch addresses (if it works) a function called
nm_vpn_openconnect_authenticate_helper within the code for
NetworkManager clients like nmtui, probably also nm-connection-editor,
that calls openconnect --authenticate.
Perhaps the network manager service could symlink the openconnect
binary to the plugins directory when used and NetworkManager could be
made to look there, but it would be nice to know if the current patch
works.
Regards,
Florian

So I guess we first need someone to tell us whether the patch “works”,
as you wrote, right? :-)

Currently I have built the attached patch, but NetworkManager
segfaults when connecting, and I try to debug why.

Hi Guixers,
There is also a bug report about this query.
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=37369
I'm not having any luck getting network-manager-openconnect to work for
me.
For one, using nm-connection-editor on cli or via exwm program launcher,
and creating a new connection tells me:
Insufficient privileges
Apr 12 21:32:20 swift NetworkManager[385]: <info> [1586719940.8362] audit: op="connection-add" pid=2616 uid=1000 result="fail" reason="Insufficient privileges."
$ id
uid=1000(ds) gid=998(users) groups=998(users),972(docker),975(libvirt),978(adbusers),984(kvm),986(cdrom),989(lp),990(netdev),991(audio),992(video),993(input),999(wheel)
Full system config is pasted below[1].
My groups appear fine. Perhaps some issue with polkit?
polkit is running though.
polkitd 864 1 0 12:33 ? 00:00:00 /gnu/store/mw57n9nj3y20bfm9ijcbpm16gpsik6sg-polkit-0.116/lib/polkit-1/polkitd --no-debug
Not sure if it's the way my desktop is started with exwm.
I am able to up / down connections via "nmcli con up id" and without
sudo.
I know others have sometimes complained about network manager
permissions as a user. It seems it works for some but not others.
Secondly, upping a openconnect network manager connection file which is
known to work on another distro results in this:
$ nmcli con up id my-vpn-2fa --ask
Error: openconnect failed: Could not find "openconnect" binary
A password is required to connect to 'my-vpn-2fa.
Gateway (vpn.secrets.gateway):
I notice that after about a minute the GUI form pops up. I then prompts
me for my 2FA meaning it passed the 1st authentication bit. After I
approve, it then dissapears and seems to disconnect.

Creating a new connecting via sudo and the starting it results in the
same.
Any idea?
