Hi Fedora Guru's
I have a client that makes everyone run (ugh) windows laptops
I have managed to work around almost everythiing I need to access so I can use my Linux laptop, the last remaining hurdle is the VPN
The windows laptop runs the GlobalProtect VPN
I created a Fedora 39 VM in VMWare workstation (on my Fedora 39/KDE host / laptop) just in case I mess up the network.
I created a new VPN connection by right clicking on the network icon on the task bar going to "Configure Network Connections"
then I added a new connection and selected "PAN Global Protect (openconnect)" as the connection type
go to
I added the gateway, saved the connection and rebooted the VM, now I can go to networks and click connect on the new connection, then I can add my username and passwd and just like the windows VPN it sends a code to my phone and asks me to enter the code, and it connects successfully!
However once connected I cannot ssh to any of the network servers such as our jump box, I can successfully ping it but I cannot ssh to it
Anyone have any ideas how to debug this? Maybe there is some sort of CA cert or profile file I need from the windows laptop?
Thanks in advance
Maybe an issue with the routing? Probably not as you can ping it. Have you tried playing with the fedora firewall? Have you set all your traffic to go through the vpn?
