location of VPNs config file

[Vyhlidal, David]

Not sure what happened emails wise, I did just reply.
Thank you very much for you input. I understand it Is not O.C. subject , was hoping you may know answer to N.M subject.

No further action required.

Thx.

Thank you for your fast respond.

I  was unable to come up with export all VPN connection command using just nmlci syntax.
I used this line to export all connection in individual exports:
for x in `nmcli con show |awk '{print $1}'|grep -v NAME`; do echo $x:;nmcli con export $x > $x-VPN.conf ;done

Could you please provide me with syntax using nmlci to export and import all VPN connection currently configured?


Thank you .

OpenConnect itself doesn't have a config file in a defined location.
It just takes arguments on the command line. One of those argument
*can* be a config file, containing more options... but it just looks where you tell it.

If you're using NetworkManager then that'll be where your configuration is stored; try 'nmcli con export' or 'nmcli con show'.

That's no longer an OpenConnect; it's a NetworkManager one.

If you had replied normally, I would have copied the NM list to get it
answered. But because you top-posted, the context is missing...

I note that 'nmcli con export' doesn't actually seem to export the
whole thing. Maybe you could just back up the underlying file from
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ or wherever it is on your
system?
