View source for Autoconnect VPN OSX

To make OS X auto-connect and re-connect to a VPN, use this AppleScript to automate the process. When compiled as an application, it will stay in the background and watch wetherer the VPN connection is active or not.

Paste the following into the AppleScript editor and change the "RPI VPN" with the name of your VPN configuration name in the Network system preferences.

 on idle
 	tell application "System Events"
 		tell current location of network preferences
 			set myConnection to the service "RPI VPN"
 			if myConnection is not null then
 				if current configuration of myConnection is not connected then
 					connect myConnection
 				end if
 			end if
 		end tell 
 		return 120
 	end tell
 end idle

Save and pick File format Application, put in /Applications and make it auto-start by adding it to the Login Items list in the Users and Groups system preferences.
