or this one:
Remote Desktop Through Cisco Anyconnect
VPN establishment capability from a remote desktop is disabled. A VPN connection will not be established.
Cisco’s documentation mention these limitations are specified in a profile XML file which is downloaded from the VPN server during the connection establishment.
Using SysInternal’s Process Monitor, it is possible to detect that this file is downloaded to the following path:
%programdata%CiscoCisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility ClientProfile[some name].xml
It turns out the file is downloaded by the Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client (vpngui.exe) and then analyzed. In order to bypass the restrictions imposed in the file, it is enough to use a simple application that monitors changes to that specific file and immediately replaces it with another file (where the restrictions are not present).
The two restrictions related to the error messages above are specified in the following nodes of the file:
<WindowsLogonEnforcement>SingleLocalLogon</WindowsLogonEnforcement>
Install Cisco Anyconnect
<WindowsVPNEstablishment>LocalUsersOnly</WindowsVPNEstablishment>
A copy of the current profile XML file could be made where the nodes above are commented out. Then the aforementioned application will overwrite the downloaded XML file with the “custom” version. A sample source code for such application follows (C#):
Note: it might be necessary to run the application with elevated privileges.
