i am currently trying to share my vpn connection on my mac. But it does not work. If i connect to the network via the Cisco AnyConnect VPN-Client and then trying to share the network, it does not work. So i tried to set up the Build-in-VPN-Client but it seems that i need to know the shared secret for my VPN-Network. But i dont know where i can find this secret cause there is no .pcf File inside the Cisco Folder. Does anyone know how to share a cisco vpn connection without the shared secret ? Maybe our Network does not need this secret ?

Did you consider that this software is designed to prevent you re-sharing a VPN connection in the first place. Once you cede total control of your network sack to the VPN configuration, it now has total control of your network stack - including locking you out of re-sharing.
