I love using Cryptocloud VPN on my Ubuntu box. However, quite regulary, the connection would momentary break, and NetworkManager would re-connect by itself.... *without the VPN*. Not good.
Lately I found VPNMon, an open source piece of software, that can take care of this. Not in the repo's, unfortunately, but available here:
vpnmon-avpnconnectionmonitorforlinux
I think it should be promoted to all Linux users of Cryptocloud, or - if resources are available - Cryptocloud could make their own version. (It's Free Software, stupid!)
Disclaimer: I have no connection to this software, and cannot vow for its correct function, although it seems to preform well.
