This has status also so you can put this in cron to check every 5 mins and will email only if there is status change...
At least I would not like to be part of this email list ... will get very annoying after couple of days.

You have to cleanup a bit to accommodate on your system


hi Chakrapani,

You wrote an entire script for me, thank you very much...I can simply run the script on my server and get things work as required..but i want to understand how the function is making the status of vpn store in the statusfile, would you please explain me the same?
Thanks.

NAME

       mongo - the Mongo command-line tool

SYNOPSIS

       mongo [OPTIONS] [DB_ADDRESS] [FILE+]

DESCRIPTION

       mongo  is  a JavaScript shell (with GNU readline capabilities).	It supports interactive and non-interactive use.  When used interactively,
       JavaScript can be used to query the database or perform any other function normally available with SpiderMonkey.  Database output  is  dis-
       played in JSON format.

       If JavaScript files are specified on the command line, the shell will run non-interactively, running each one in sequence and then exiting.

EXAMPLES

       mongo  start the shell, connecting to the server at localhost:27017 and using the test database

       mongo foo
	      start the shell using the foo database at localhost:27017

       mongo 192.169.0.5/foo
	      start the shell using the foo database at 192.169.0.5:27017

       mongo 192.169.0.5:9999/foo
	      start the shell using the foo database at 192.169.0.5:9999

       mongo script1.js script2.js script3.js
	      run three scripts and exit

OPTIONS

       --shell
	      run the shell after executing files

       --help show usage information

       --host HOST
	      server to connect to (default HOST=localhost)

       --port PORT
	      port to connect to (default PORT=27017)

       --nodb do not connect to mongod

       --eval SCRIPT
	      evaluate JavaScript

       -u USERNAME
	      specify user to log in as

       -pPASSWORD
	      specify password of user (notice there is no space)
