Wonderful that I managed to get a connection today using Shrew.  Just
noticed that for my Netgear router they finally have a netgear client
for windows 7 that is a free upgrade….. to those users who bought the
router this year! I am very thankful for projects like Shrew.

That being said:

1. How can I automatically run a script upon successful connection to
the vpn? I would like to mount some network drives once connected.


This isn't a feature that is supported by the client at the moment. You could create a batch file and double click it after your connect. Not exactly an ideal solution.

2. How can I bring up the shrew connect dialog for a site directly
without starting the access manager? It would be lovely to double click
a desktop icon and bring up the connect dialog completely bypassing the
access manager.


If you double click on the ipsecc program, you get this output in the status window ...

ipsecc -r "name" [-u <name>][-p <pass>][-a]
  -r site configuration name
  -u connection user name
  -p connection user password
  -a auto connect

... So you can create a shortcut to ipsecc and pass -r "site name". This will open the connection window, bypassing the access manager.

Hope this helps,

-Matthew
