Gargoyle | Wondering if anyone can help out with an issue I have with a VPN. It's a cisco anyconnect VPN and it's all setup in NetworkManager and "works fine" with one small gotcha - I have to immediately ping a host inside the VPN and leave that ping running. If I don't start the ping withing 2-3 seconds or I stop the ping for more than 2-3 seconds then no VPN traffic will flow. It doesn't disconnect, etc. The traffic just goes down some black | 10:10 |
Gargoyle | hole! | 10:10 |
Gargoyle | I'm all out of inspiration as to what to search for to find possible answers! | 10:11 |

daftykins | Gargoyle: most VPN configurations have a keep-alive parameter to do that for you | 11:20 |
Gargoyle | daftykins: Yeah. I can't find anything like that in the config options in the gui or the related file in /etc/NetworkManager | 11:33 |
daftykins | https://supportforums.cisco.com/t5/vpn/vpn-via-cisco-anyconnect-fails-after-2-minutes-in-ubuntu-12-04/td-p/2082327 | 11:39 |
daftykins | 'dead peer detection' or DPD packets seems relevant | 11:39 |
Gargoyle | Hmmm. DPD triggers after about 30 seconds, then I get a fresh: "Established DTLS connection (using GnuTLS). Ciphersuite (DTLS0.9)-(RSA)-(AES-256-CBC)-(SHA1)." For 2 or 3 seconds after that, I can launch a new ping and it will stay open. The second I stop pinging it's dead again. | 12:07 |
daftykins | did you have a connection profile to supply to make that work, or just credentials to enter once the openconnect 'addon' for networkmanager was installed? because the above link has a parameter for keepalive that might be missing | 12:08 |
Gargoyle | Just enetered creds once IIRC. | 12:09 |
daftykins | hmm might be some files related to the package then, where a systemwide setting lives | 12:09 |
czajkowski | daftykins: hmm not sure what the ~ config directory rename? | 12:30 |
czajkowski | means again? | 12:30 |
daftykins | skype will store some configuration in your home directory, ~ being /home/username - so finding that folder and renaming it (whilst Skype is closed), so the program can't find it, is a good test | 12:36 |
czajkowski | ah | 12:39 |
czajkowski | daftykins: how do you know these unusal tricks :) | 12:39 |
daftykins | ah they're all highly conventional, there has to be some per-user config for programs, on Windows it's C:\Users\<username>\AppData\ or %appdata%\, same deal as anything hidden under ~ on Linux | 12:42 |
daftykins | some hide it in the 'hidden' dot folder of .config - others elsewhere, since there's no consistency in open source land ;D | 12:42 |
czajkowski | cause that would be logical right | 12:46 |
czajkowski | would love to know why it went hideys in the first place when it just worked | 12:46 |
daftykins | Microsoft seem to be on a mission to ruin Skype so everyone leaves, lately xD | 12:47 |
daftykins | i just got updated to v8, the single window design and no ability to turn off emoticons is evil :( | 12:47 |
zmoylan-pi | it _is_ an ms product... :-) | 12:49 |
daftykins | thewaspsknees: i think your PIA node is bad | 22:50 |
