Allow external commands without protocols in create connection dialog
Created by: ghost
Using the latest Remmina - Version 1.2.0-rcgit-24 (git 72acb105) I mostly utilize VPN connections before launching a RDP connection to a Windows server. I have a script that I use in the Pre-command area to check if the VPN is open or not for every connection. If it is not it automates the setup of the connection. If it is already open it silently terminates. However, when I eventually want to shutdown the VPN I have to manually do this as I don't want to shutdown the VPN connection (using a Post-command script) every time I log off a server because I generally want to leave the VPN open for long periods of time during administration periods. I fudged this in Remmina by creating a SSH connection with no password that executes the Pre-command with a stop option for the Bash script. However, as you can imagine, I have to click an OK through an error message about a password problem. It would be nice if Remmina had the option to simply create a connection that simply calls an external script without having a protocol tied to it in order to facilitate the automated one-click calling of a script. I realize there are other methods to do this but I thought to keep it all in one place would be convenient.
