Hello, I'm trying to set up client openconnect VPN connection on a
headless server. Same connection works on my home PC as a regular
user, configured from nm-applet and storing password in keyring;
on a server there's only root and nmcli. I copied most of the
config, adding "password-flags=0" to [vpn] and "password=pAsSw0Rd"
to [vpn-secrets]. Software is networkmanager 1.8.4 and
networkmanager-openconnect 1.2.4 on both machines. Here's /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/vpnConn : https://pastebin.com/nGVD85ec When trying to activate it: # nmcli connection up vpnConnA password is required to connect to 'vpnConn'. Warning: password for 'vpn.secrets.gateway' not given in 'passwd-file' and nmcli cannot ask without '--ask' option. Error: Connection activation failed: No valid secrets # journalctl -e Oct 20 11:30:36 archvm NetworkManager[1839]: <info> [1508488236.7972] audit: op="connection-activate" uuid="ae9d0346-d03f-4feb-9042-a4b36966653b" name="vpnConn" pid=2006 uid=0 result="success" Oct 20 11:30:36 archvm NetworkManager[1839]: <info> [1508488236.8000] vpn-connection[0x55a3bf12f0d0,ae9d0346-d03f-4feb-9042-a4b36966653b,"vpnConn",0]: Started the VPN service, PID 2011 Oct 20 11:30:36 archvm NetworkManager[1839]: <info> [1508488236.8097] vpn-connection[0x55a3bf12f0d0,ae9d0346-d03f-4feb-9042-a4b36966653b,"vpnConn",0]: Saw the service appear; activating connection Oct 20 11:30:36 archvm NetworkManager[1839]: <error> [1508488236.8257] vpn-connection[0x55a3bf12f0d0,ae9d0346-d03f-4feb-9042-a4b36966653b,"vpnConn",0]: Failed to request VPN secrets #3: No agents were available for this request.
