[Omaha.pm] cisco vpn script

[Terry]

I thought I would paste this hack for you all to laugh at.  I run this
program out of init like so:
vp::respawn:/usr/local/bin/check-vpn

So, when your timeout hits, the script will automagically reconnect or
if the script dies, init will restart it.

One could argue about storing your VPN password in a script
file....wonder if you could store it differently.....has to be passed
to vpnclient in the clear.....can't reverse a hash....mmm...
