thanks,

fortunately have saved one older installation file,

and by uninstalling and installing the older one, the connect could be made.

I've never used any VPN client under Linux, so I can't give much more help.

First check if you can ping the University VPN system to make sure the network connection is OK. Compare with pinging it on the Ubuntu laptop. If ping is blocked look for a web server at the University and check you can get to it from both systems.

Try checking what packages were installed on the Ubuntu laptop and compare with what you have on the Devuan system.

thank you,

tired today on a Ubuntu 20.04 laptop,
which would be ready to connect.

somaybe the Devuan is missing some packages?

Do you have another system set up to use the VPN? If that works the system you've just set up is wrong. Or can you ask a friend if the VPN works for them?

Can you ping the University VPN service? That will tell you if the connection is working (although some sites block ping requests).

Hello ,

have installed yesterday Devuan on an older computer here
and tried to connecto to university,

but the Software could not connect, so i was wondering if i am missing something.

The System received, Chimaera, afterwards updated to Daedalus, but error still present.

upon launching the software "Cisco Secure Client" 5.1.2.42

the error message is

"No connection to VPN service. Reattach failed"

Coule be that the University VPN service is down, but rather think that maybe my Devuan installation is somehow incomplete.

Thanks.
