I just found an older version of anyconnect, and it extracts just fine with XArchive.
But you probably should be doing things manually, anyway.
Assuming you have the latest anyconnect, v2.5.3054-k9, and it's located in /root/my-documents, do this
| Code: | cd /root/my-documents
tar -zxvf anyconnect-linux-2.5.3054-k9.tar.gz
cd ciscovpn
./vpn_install.sh |
This will install the anyconnect files into /opt/cisco/vpn, and start the anyconnect daemon (vpnagentd). It will also add a file to /etc/init.d so that the anyconnect daemon is started at each boot up.
So all that's remaining to do is run this -
| Code: | | /opt/cisco/vpn/bin/vpnui |
enter your server details, and press "Connect".

No matter what I did, it would NOT extract.
Ended up extracting on my PC, Zipping and transferring the .zip file.
Now have the ciscovpn content on puppy.
Puppy says I dont have permission to run vpn_install.sh so I assume need a sudo to do this. I assume I am root but I dont have/know a password.
Anyone know the correct method to get this to install ?

MS filesystems fail to preserve Linux file permissions.

No, you just need to make the installer file executable. Do this -
| Code: | | chmod 755 vpn_install.sh |
Once installed, it might also be necessary to make vpnagentd and vpnui executable.
