I have created a VPN connection from home to work on
windows XP pro and I have saved the password so it
automatically logs in when i click the connection icon.
How do I set up a scheduled task so at a certain time
each day the connection automatically opens for an hour
and then closes (for backing up data to home). I tried to
set this up in scheduled tasks, but the only icon i could
select for the task was the shortcut to the connection
which did not work.
 
You can make use of the commandline rasdial.exe to create a batch file and
schedule that
to run at specified time.
