Intranet web sites via VPN
<p>I have created an App that gets data from Web Services on an In*<em>TRA</em>*net web site. In order for my App to see these sites I have to turn on the VPN that is setup for our company intranet. So when I turn on the VPN it asked for authentication. That has to be turned on before my App launches because I know of no way to access the VPN via code (<em>Is there anything in the SDK for working with the VPN?</em>)</p>

<p>The <strong>problem</strong> is that once my my App launches it needs to authenticate against the intranet web site (authentication <strong>can't</strong> be turned off for security reasons).</p>

<p>So in this scenario:</p>

<ol>
<li>User turns on VPN, enters network credentials to get access to internal network</li>
<li>User starts App that ask for network credentials (because web server asked for auth)</li>
</ol>

<p>So as you can see this is quite a pain (having to enter network credentials twice).</p>

<p><strong>Anybody have any ideas on how I could get around this?</strong></p>

<p>BTW - I'm using <a href="http://allseeing-i.com/ASIHTTPRequest/" rel="nofollow">ASIHTTPRequest</a> in my code.</p>
