It appears that neither one of you are using the AnyConnect application.

It has been years since I used Network Manager.  I normally use the
"traditional" Debian interfaces configuration.


Howeverm, I could possibly be persuaded to consider a different
configuration, if it worked.


With the old endpoint, I was ( am ) able to authenticate inside the
application itself, but the new endpoint goes through some WebKit pages.

I have not made any configuration changes from default in the AnyConnect
application, just enter the endpoint address and click "Connect."


James, would you be able to guide me through changing my configuration
appropriately, to see if I can get through this roadblock?


You can see my address in the headers of this message.



Thanks,  ( I've forgotten how to configure "thanks in advance." )
