Here's some breadcrumbs that may get you going in the right direction. Sorry I don't have the details. I've been able to connect using password authentication with OpenConnect. I can't say I know much about using it with certificates. It requires that you add the tun driver if you are running a recent enough release that it has been removed. I don't have/remember the exact instructions, but I did have success with snv_151 and snv_151a in early November. At $DAYJOB-- I was able to connect to an older cisco VPN using vpnc (from OpenVPN, I believe) on OpenSUSE. I expect that it would be pretty much the same process on Solaris, assuming you have vpnc installed. There was a conversion process I needed to do to extract the shared secret that was put onto my Windows box. This was done with a tool that came with the package that delivered vpnc.
