Here is a bit that I did last night:
#!/usr/bin/bash
echo "Starting VPN initialization script."
echo "If all goes well, you will need to choose your configuration,"
echo "provide your decryption password and then leave this window"
echo "open until you are done with the VPN connection."
echo
cd /etc/openvpn
userchoice=''
thischoice=''
standardreminder="You
may exit the VPN connection at any time by pressing\nCtrl and C keys at
the same time.\n\n"
while [ -z "${choice[$userchoice]}" ]
do
ct=1
for i in *.conf
do
choice[$ct]=$i
let ct++
done
echo -e $standardreminder
for ((i=1; i<$((${#choice[*]}+1));i++))
do
echo "Choice $i: ${choice[$i]}"
done
echo -n "Choose your configuration by number: "
read userchoice
userchoice=`echo "$userchoice"|sed 's/[^0-9]//g'`
thischoice="${choice[$userchoice]}"
echo "Choice is: ${choice[$userchoice]}"
if [ -n "${choice[$userchoice]}" ];then break;fi
echo "Invalid choice"
echo
done
echo "DEBUG: proceeding with choice: $thischoice"
echo "DEBUG openvpn --config $thischoice" |
