How do I disable Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client from booting on startup? I have Ubuntu 11.10 and the VPN client is 2.4.0202. Older instructions noted that at installation time one is asked:

Automatically start the VPN service at boot time [yes]

But when I tried reinstalling the latest version, I wasn't asked this question.

I know I can disable the various scripts in /etc/rc.* by hand but I don't want to accidentally break the manual operation of the program which I still need at times.

This question appears to be abandoned and unanswered, could you perhaps add more detail to your question? If this question no longer applies then you can either delete it or answer it yourself if you've solved the problem. Thanks! – RolandiXor♦ Dec 31 '12 at 5:49
FYI, if Cisco's client is giving you trouble, you can instead try openconnect, an open-source vpn client compatible with anyconnect. It has a plugin to integrated it with the gnome network manager. humans-enabled.com/2011/06/… – Steve B Jan 22 at 16:13
