I have a vpn connection with Cisco Anyconnect. The password is saved, but I need to retrieve it.

I looked at this question Where does GNOME Network Manager store passwords? but it did not help. There is no such field as password under the section [vpn-secret]. But there is a field called xmlconfig with what looks like random data.

How can I retrieve the password?

Actually, retrieving the password is not strictly necessary. What I want is to use the certificates on another computer. I tried copying the three certificate files and the vpn config file found in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ but it did not work. It asked me for the PEM pass phrase when I tried to activate the vpn.

I managed to solve it. I installed "Passwords and keys" (I think it was called seahorse or something) and there I found both the passwords I needed.
