=========================== == INSTALLATION =========== =========================== 1. Install prerequisites. This will include: sudo apt install python3-gi gir1.2-gtk-3.0 gir1.2-webkit2-4.0 openconnect ocproxy Also, note that you'll need at least version 8 of openconnect but NOT a version that is greater 8.2 or less than 9.0. If you're not sure what you've got, run: openconnect --version These scripts did not seem to work at all due a bug in openconnectversion 8.2+. The bug does appear to have been fixed in openconnect version 9. Consult https://wiki.communitydata.science/CommunityData:Northwestern_VPN for more details. 2. Install this directory into: ~/bin/nu-vpn-proxy 3. Change your System UUID in the script. You can get this with the command: sudo dmidecode|grep UUID You should see a line like: UUID: deadbeef-dead-beef-dead-beefdeadbeef Edit the file hipreport-modified.sh to change the variable HOSTID so that it is equal to this number. Change the line that says "deadbeef-dead-beef-dead-beefdeadbeaf" so that it lists your UUID. 4. [optional] Change bmh1867 to your username and add the following stanza text to your ~/.ssh/config: Host kibo kibo.soc.northwestern.edu Hostname kibo.soc.northwestern.edu User bmh1867 ProxyCommand ~/bin/nu-vpn-proxy/ssh-vpn-proxy %h %p ForwardAgent yes ServerAliveInterval 120 =========================== == USAGE ================== =========================== There are two ways to use this. 1. *Only* for SSH connections to kibo. This should be just as simple as running: ssh kibo You can run the command mulptiple time and it should work. When you close the first connection though, it will disconnect all of your connections. 2. Your entire connection. Run the following command: ~/bin/nu-vpn-proxy/openconnect_command-general.sh While this command is running, you should be connected through the VPN. Run Ctrl-C to disconnect.
