Hi again, 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]: [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. 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.
