A GlobalProtect VPN client (GUI) for Linux based on Openconnect and built with Qt5, supports SAML auth mode, inspired by gp-saml-gui.

• Similar user experience as the official client in macOS.
• Supports both SAML and non-SAML authentication modes.
• Supports automatically selecting the preferred gateway from the multiple gateways.
• Supports switching gateway from the system tray menu manually.

• Openconnect v8.x
• Qt5, qt5-webengine, qt5-websockets

1. Install openconnect v8.x

   For Ubuntu 18.04 you might need to build the latest openconnect from source code.

2. Install the Qt dependencies

   sudo apt install qt5-default libqt5websockets5-dev qtwebengine5-dev

Install the Qt dependencies

sudo zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtwebsockets-devel libqt5-qtwebengine-devel

Install globalprotect-openconnect.

git clone https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect.git
cd GlobalProtect-openconnect
git submodule update --init

# qmake or qmake-qt5
qmake CONFIG+=release
make
sudo make install

Open GlobalProtect VPN in the application dashboard.

Relatively manual process for now:

• Clone the source tree

  git clone https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect.git
  cd GlobalProtect-openconnect
  

• Install git-archive-all using the pip. Remember to adjust the version numbers etc.

  pip install git-archive-all
  

• Next create an upstream source tree using git archive.

  git-archive-all --force-submodules --prefix=globalprotect-openconnect-1.3.0/ ../globalprotect-openconnect_1.3.0.orig.tar.gz
  

• Finally extract the source tree and build the debian package.

  cd ..
  tar -xzvf globalprotect-openconnect_1.3.0.orig.tar.gz
  cd globalprotect-openconnect-1.3.0
  fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -sa 2>&1 | tee ../build.log
