The is the method used by Rose's VPN provider.

On the bone, get the installation file and untar it. 

bone$ cd /tmp

bone$ wget -O $VERS https://roseshare.rose-hulman.edu/storage/u.svc/download.dn/fid/5504766564276453800_3845984564090334472

Run the VPN. Substitute your Rose username for username. 

bone$ globalprotect
>> connect -p gp.rose-hulman.edu -u username@rose-hulman.edu
