OpenConnect VPN Client on MacOS

Unfortunately, the Cisco AnyConnect client for Mac conflicts with Pow causing a grey-screen-of-death kernel panic anytime you connect to the VPN and Pow is installed.

As an alternative, there is OpenConnect, a command-line client for Cisco's AnyConnect SSL VPN.

Here's how to install and set up OpenConnect on MacOS:

  1. OpenConnect can be installed via homebrew:

     brew update
    

brew install openconnect

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on VMWare 17.6 Workstation Pro - Boot into Black Screen Issue

On VMWare 17.6 after starting Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and VMWare itself froze/black screen (Also Linux Mint 22)

Following helps to enable boot into Ubuntu: switch off "Accelerate 3D graphics" on Display section of VM Hardware settings

To resolve the screen blacking out and unresponsiveness issue, you can update your graphics drivers using the oibaf PPA repository. Here are the steps:

Add the Graphics Drivers PPA

Open a terminal in Ubuntu and add the PPA repository:

Install Variety Wallpaper Changer

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:variety/stable -y && sudo apt update && sudo apt-get -y install variety

Run the newly installed app called 'Variety' to configure

OpenConnect VPN on Mac OS X

Unfortunately, the Cisco AnyConnect client for Mac conflicts with Pow. And by "conflicts", I mean it causes a grey-screen-of-death kernel panic anytime you connect to the VPN and Pow is installed.

As an alternative, there is OpenConnect, a command-line client for Cisco's AnyConnect SSL VPN.

Here's how to get it set up on Mac OS X:
