on my linux machine
Linux kali-pc 6.1.0-kali7-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.20-2kali1 (2023-04-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux
i've tried to install
cisco-secure-client-dart_5.0.01242_amd64.deb
but when i try to run vpn client
connect capability is unavailable because the VPN service is unavailable
though i can ping and reach required vpn server ip and can dig it url
when i run cisco secure client 5.0.01242 on another windows machine then they can establish VPN. so VPN server is running normally
also no connection to VPN service. Reattach failed state is confusing me.
looks like there is problem that prohibits secure client from accessing my wifi connection.
Can anyone help me with this, please?

need to create installation manual for Linux. Nothing there only windows and mac.
the solution that helped me:
─# systemctl status vpnagentd.service
○ vpnagentd.service - Cisco Secure Client - AnyConnect VPN Agent
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/vpnagentd.service; disabled; preset: disabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
┌──(root㉿kali-pc)-[/home/kali]
└─# systemctl enable vpnagentd.service
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/vpnagentd.service → /lib/systemd/system/vpnagentd.service.
┌──(root㉿kali-pc)-[/home/kali]
└─# systemctl status vpnagentd.service
○ vpnagentd.service - Cisco Secure Client - AnyConnect VPN Agent
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/vpnagentd.service; enabled; preset: disabled)

┌──(root㉿kali-pc)-[/home/kali]
└─# systemctl start vpnagentd.service

Thanks for the post @RinatMustafin
It helped and in my case I also had to update this file below to /opt/cisco/secure/ as it was still pointing to the old /opt/cisco/anyconnect/ folder
/etc/systemd/system/vpnagentd.service
