Running VPN client...

Thanks to Loukas' suggestion, I was able to get the CISCO VPN client
running with the following statement:


do shell script "echo \"echo y | /usr/local/bin/vpnclient connect
myprofile user username pwd " & thePassword & "\" | login -f $USER"


However that "do shell script" doesn't exit, which means that I can't
include it in a script that wants to do some things once the VPN is
running.


Does anyone have any suggestions of how to incorporate this into a
script which does stuff before and afterwards? I have made it into a
Script App, but just don't know how to call it. I can't use "ignoring
application responses" or "with timeout of" either, because "run
script" never exits, so the calling script waits anyway.
