Hi!

Have you noticed that this script no longer works the same on DSM6?
The VPN will be stuck as 'connecting' and never complete if the script is run as a schedule task, even as root user.
If the script is run manually via SSH as root the VPN will connect fine.

tenderjackson... You are a legend! All good!

I wonder why the full path now matters... As the original script runs fine when manually run. Weird...

Does this work for L2TP/IPSec as well? What do I need to change and to what?

Looks interesting

I think vpn really can help in many cases. Especially when you need to get access to forbidden website or netflix. I found fastest VPN download VeePN and use it for my entertainment and work. It helped me to protect my privacy against hackers.
