- Subject: activating a dial-up connection from cygwin
Hello,
I was wondering if there was any way to activate an existing windows 2000
dial-up connection from the cygwin command line.
The reason I want to know is because I have a shell script that
automatically backs up files to a remote computer (which is only accessible
through a vpn connection). Since I don't want to maintain the VPN
connection all the time, I need a way to start it up (and possibly shut it
down) from the command line.
Thanks in advance,
Rob.
