I'm fairly new to Android and new to Linux in general, as I've been involved in primarily an all-Windows IT department for years. I've been tinkering with Linux recently and am learning, but still need some help.
I also have a need to VPN into work with my X, yet Android doesn't support IPSec with Cisco VPNs, so I have successfully rooted and installed VPN Connections. It works perfectly.
The only problem is that to use it, every time I reboot my phone, I have to console into my phone (using ConnectBot) and execute the below commands in order to load the tun module that VPN Connections needs to work properly:
su
insmod /sdcard/tun.ko
Now, I am sure there is a way to execute these on startup. Being a Linux noob however, I am not sure where to do this, or how to do this best. I'm also concerned about security. By running su on startup and then executing the insmod command, am I opening up my entire session to be running as su? I'd rather have it work the way it does now where I am prompted whenever an app requests su.
Thanks for any help.
