@johnnyg thanks for the info, downgraded openfortivpn and now everything works great.

jrd commented on 2025-12-10 11:46 (UTC)

Using networkmanager-openconnect from main repo works very good. Thank you @aminvakil

johnnyg commented on 2025-12-10 08:51 (UTC)

@RealGecko it was the update of openfortivpn from 1.23.1 to 1.24.0 that broke it. If you downgrade openfortivpn then it'll work again. Someone has created a PR to fix it upstream but unfortunately it hasn't been merged yet: https://github.com/adrienverge/openfortivpn/pull/1325

RealGecko commented on 2025-12-09 09:19 (UTC)

I get this error NetworkManager /usr/bin/pppd: unrecognized option '/usr/lib/pppd/2.5.2/nm-fortisslvpn-pppd-plugin.so' Not sure which update caused this. Rebuilding does not help.

aminvakil commented on 2025-06-03 07:27 (UTC)

TIL this project has been deprecated and maintainers suggest using networkmanager-openconnect (available in official repositories) instead.

You don't need to downgrade ppp, you just need to rebuild the package to pick up the new version - it works fine with ppp 2.5.2

phenoman commented on 2025-01-17 08:04 (UTC)

Again error with ppp (VPN doesn't connect), had to downgrade it to 2.5.1 (from 2.5.2) with sudo downgrade ppp

Nathan67 commented on 2024-10-18 11:45 (UTC)

If the VPN fails to activate, check the Network Manager logs: journalctl -u NetworkManager.service

If you get this error in red : Plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.5.0/nm-fortisslvpn-pppd-plugin.so is for pppd version 2.5.0, this is 2.5.1

The solution in the meantime is to downgrade the ppp package to version 2.5.0: sudo downgrade ppp

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/NetworkManager-fortisslvpn is up again. Rebuild the package saved the day:

cd /tmp

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/networkmanager-fortisslvpn.git

cd networkmanager-fortisslvpn

makepkg -si
