My UNIX/scripting knowledge is holding me back on this one. I'm attempting
to automate the installation process of Cisco's VPN client for OS X (using
their install shell script), copying our customized profile file and GUI app
over, and doing restart. Everything but running that shell script I can
AppleScript.
When you do this manually it requires opening a Terminal session and
entering the following two commands:
cd vpnclient
./vpn_install
It seems that you must be within that sub-directory to launch the script and
successfully install the files and set the permissions. You must also be
logged as Root. I'm estimating that using 'do shell script with
administrators privileges' should also work. I've submitted single line do
shell scripts before, but how do you do those two lines in a one line do
shell script? Possible, or is there another method to get this done? Thank
you in advance for any enlightenment.
