-- Connect to FortiClient VPN. Uses of `delay` here are nothing short of an ugly HaCk.
-- You may need to adjust the delays to work on your system. Also make sure with your
-- sysadmin that it is ok to hard-code your password (see below*) as THIS IS NOT SECURE.
-- !!!USE THIS SCRIPT AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
