Hello,
I recently installed openSuse Leap 42.1 with the Linux Cisco AnyConnect Client (version 4.1.06020) . I'm using the GNOME desktop environment.
When I'm start a new secure vpn connection the connection is available since I open or close a new terminal window. I tested this with GNOME terminal, Terminator and Xterm.
In the log (journalctl) I see the following output:
Nov 11 10:31:29 frog terminator.desktop[9033]: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/terminatorlib/window.py:63: Warning: The property GtkWindow:allow-shrink is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore. It will be removed in a future version.

I opened a new window with the program "Terminator". As you can see in the above output after the new window has opened a "Termination reason code 5" disconnects the AnyConnect Client from an active session. This happened when terminal window are opened/closed when the session is active.
This issue is very frustrating, because when you working on a server (connected via vpn) and open a new terminal to start another connection the first connection are dropped...
Are there any workarounds. Are there any fixes out with the Cisco AnyConnect Client on Linux??
Thank you for your help!
