VPN connection automation?

[sloppyhack]

We are trying to set up an export process to automatically establish a VPN connection before running it's normal tasks. The connection is usually established manually via the Cisco VPN client. I'm not finding much on CPAN. There was only one module...and I wasn't successful in getting it connect.

Anyone done this successfully?

Cheers,
