REM - disconnecting from RDP usually locks the console. If you don't want that,

REM - note that it can take up to 30s to disconnect this way, such is life.

Applies to OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and newer; tested through MacOS 10.13 (High Sierra)

The general advice for adding particular directories to your PATH environment variable on MacOS is to add an export PATH to your ~/.bashrc or equivalent. This has some drawbacks. For one, it only affects that shell for that user.

Additionally, sometimes installed Applications modify the system's default PATH in ways that you don't want.

Understanding how MacOS generates the PATH environment variable is instructive.

TL;DR read man path_helper and be enlightened

tl;dr: the D1 mini's usbserial interface is a little sketchy and macOS doesn't cope well. You need to install the driver from wch.cn. direct link to CH341SER_MAC.ZIP

This guide helps you build OpenConnect 7.x on OS X. You might want to do this if you want a newer version than the openconnect package in homebrew provides, or if you want to use libstoken support (for having an RSA soft token on your machine be used automatically by OpenConnect).

Shortcut

The version of OpenConnect on Homebrew has been updated, and so this whole guide can now be replaced with:

1. Install Homebrew from http://brew.sh and make sure it works
2. brew install openconnect --with-stoken
3. brew install stoken (See the "Using OpenConnect" section below for information about using stoken to set up soft tokens)
