    Is there any way to tell Vista to automatically reconnect my VPN after it wakes from sleep or hibernate? The VPN is running at the time the machine is put into hibernation or sleep. The wireless connection automatically restarts on its own, as it is configured to automatically connect anytime it sees the SID in range. But for the life of me, I can't figure out how to persist the VPN connection.

    Anyone have any idea?

    P.S. I have seen mention of creating a shortcut to the VPN connection in the startup folder, for use on a reboot. Is there any similar place, most likely in the registry, for similar shortcuts for use after a wakeup?
