I imagine something like Cisco AnyConnect on Windows, where you can connect before login to the machine. So afterwards user specific network shares are available and can be connect via scripts.

,vpnc, command is used to connect VPN server. We can configure VPN server IP, username, password there.

So most easiest way in my eyes would be a network-manager applet at gdm login. But as of CentOS 7 there is no nm-applet.desktop anymore. There is also an unsolved bug report at fedora. Anyone an idea to get nm-applet to gdm login screen? Regards Tim Am 1. Mai 2015 19:45:55 MESZ, schrieb Jegadeesh Kumar <jegasmile at gmail.com>:>,vpnc, command is used to connect VPN server.

IPsec-VPN (e.g. OpenSWAN) vs. SSL-VPN (e.g. OpenVPN). Two totally different technologies. -- LF
