# Checkpoint R80.10 and up
#
# Please fill VPN and VPNIP before using this script.
# SPLIT might or not have to be filled, depending on your needs 
# and Checkpoint VPN given routes.
#
# if /opt/etc/vpn.conf is present the above script settings will be 
# ignored. vpn.conf is created upon first installation.
#
# first time run it as ./vpn.sh -i --vpn=YOUR.VPN.SERVER
# Accept localhost certificate visiting https://localhost:14186/id if not Firefox
# Then open VPN URL to login/start the VPN
#
# vpn.sh selfupdate 
# might update this script if new version+Internet connectivity available
#
# non-chroot version not written intentionally. 
# SNX/CShell behave on odd ways;
# the chroot is built to counter some of those behaviours
#
# CShell CheckPoint Java agent needs Java *and* X11 desktop rights
# binary SNX VPN client needs 32-bits environment
#
# tested with chroot both with Debian Bullseye 11/Bookworm 12 (32 bits) and
# 64 bits Linux hosts.
