• GlobalProtect VPN and browser configuration
  1 project | /r/ManjaroLinux | 15 Sep 2023

  In order to reach a client's domain for a project, my team needs to use a VPN and the instructions were pretty clear regarding which tool to use - GlobalProtect VPN - so I've installed https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect and was able to connect successfully.

  Sometimes you may want to use some software in your project, but the maintainer(s) may have some functional affiliation(s) that makes it difficult to use without significant security assessment effort.

  Example here: GlobalProtect is VPN software from Palo Alto Networks, but the maintainer of this open source client is based in China. He may be a fine, upstanding person, the code may be pristine, but there's systemic risk that needs to be bought down.

  What are your tools of choice to assess something like this?

• University VPN on Linux
  1 project | /r/UPenn | 6 Nov 2022

  Ooh yes I recently went through this. This is the one that finally worked: https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect

• RavynOS – Finesse of macOS. Freedom of FreeBSD

  I've seen this on Linux too, specifically with this VPN application https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect

  Closing it via the "x" will minimize to tray and hide (which is the behavior I want, but an example nonetheless)

• School internet blocks any Linux devices, any ideas?
  1 project | /r/archlinux | 11 Jul 2022

  I work for a Uni running eduroam. Mine isn't hostile to Linux, but it is definitely a second class citizen. I run Linux where I can. I don't know where you are, but openconnect can probably work for you. Specifically, I use https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect/ on top of openconnect for SAML auth. Might be worth the try for you.

• GlobalProtect from PaloAlto: "Cannot connect to local gpd service."
  3 projects | /r/Gentoo | 6 Jun 2022

  I'm not familiar with the service and software can only be downloaded and installed via the customer portal. Would something like GlobalProtect-openconnect or gp-saml-gui suffice?

• If you're failing to connect to WPA2 networks, there is a reason (and a workaround).

• WPA2 Enterprise Network not working on 22.04

  Solution to the GlobalProtect problem is to install the non-official client https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect and follow the fix in issue #142 on the github repo.
