I'm using Win 7's built-in VPN client but every time I put my computer to sleep / hibernate mode and then wake it up again, the connection is lost and I need to reconnect manually. Is there any way to automate it? Wireless connections have a nice little checkbox ("automatically connect when this network is in range") but I couldn't find anything similar for VPN connections. Task scheduler maybe?

Apparently Windows 7 does VPN Reconnect.
This article might help : Remote Access Step-by-Step Guide: Deploying Remote Access with VPN Reconnect.

Nice tip, although it won't probably work for sleep/hibernate scenario. From the document: "If your laptop hibernates when you close the lid, then the connection is lost and you will have to manually reinitiate the connection" – Borek Sep 1 '09 at 21:43
