Location of Cisco VPN client profile configuration file (.pcf file) on Mac OS X
Mia Lopez
What is the default location of Cisco VPN client profiles? I need those .pcf files since my old Cisco VPN client doesn't work after upgrading to Mac OS X Leopard (version 10.5), and I don't remember my VPN settings.

If I remember it right, they should be located in /etc/CiscoSystemsVPNClient/Profiles/ (you can open this folder from Finder´s Go To -> Go to Folder menu)
1If, like me, you arrived here looking for the Cisco AnyConnect profile location, I found my config information at
/opt/cisco/anyconnect

3Open a terminal and search for it (go ahead to the next line if the previous one doesn't find anything):
find ./Library -name '*.pcf'
find . -name '*.pcf'
find / -name '*.pcf'If you don't find anything, check the Library folder inside your home directory. I think the Cisco client might import the settings and store it in some other format (or at least in another file) inside the Library or Library/Preferences folder.
