Folks,

I want to log into the VPN automatically (and periodically) from the
script. I though that if I put the user name and password into the
*.pcf file, the vpnclient will not ask for the manual entry of the
user name and password. So, I have modified the *.pcf file
accordingly:

[main]
Description=[description]
Host=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
AuthType=1
GroupName=3D-P
GroupPwd=
enc_GroupPwd=[long string of hex]
EnableISPConnect=0
ISPConnectType=0
ISPConnect=VPN - XXXX
ISPPhonebook=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk
ISPCommand=
Username=valid user name that works, when entered manually
SaveUserPassword=0
UserPassword=valid password that works, when entered manually
enc_UserPassword=
NTDomain=
EnableBackup=0
BackupServer=
EnableMSLogon=1
MSLogonType=0
EnableNat=1
TunnelingMode=0
TcpTunnelingPort=10000
CertStore=0
CertName=
CertPath=
CertSubjectName=
CertSerialHash=00000000000000000000000000000000
SendCertChain=0
PeerTimeout=90
EnableLocalLAN=1

It didn't work: the vpnclient still wants me to enter the user name
and password manually. What have I done wrond? What am I missing?

Thanks!
Nick
