Need RAS .scp file

that redials my connection until a particular subnet of my ISP has been avoided (chameleon.dialup.pol.co.uk)

Sure this could be be done with with a batch script. I wrote one that creates a RAS connection, dials it, then views and modifies the route table removing the RAS connection as the default gateway. This was done to effectively block remote users from using our RAS servers to access the internet.
On exit the file would then disconnect and then delete the RAS connection to hide the setting from the user. Anyway...

This could be adapted easily to fit your needs as follows.

Start Loop
Dial connection
Parse Route table for subnet
Check if subnet is desired subnet
If not Loop

I will include the original scripts here so if you are able to you can modify to suit your needs. If not make another post and I will script it for you. :)

The Kid.

This is the first file. Run this once to create the connection and store the settings in the file RAS.

:: DO THIS ONCE to create the RAS Connection

:: BACKUP CURRENT PHONE BOOK
ren "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk" rasphone.bak

:: CREATE RAS CONNECTION AND DIAL THEN HANGUP
RASPHONE -a "RAS Connection"
RASPHONE -D "RAS Connection"
RASPHONE -H "RAS Connection"

:: RESTORE ORIGINAL PHONE BOOK FILE
rem COPY "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk" RAS
DEL "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk"
ren "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.bak" rasphone.pbk

:: END DO THIS ONCE

This is the second file. Use this to dial the connection, modify the route table, then delete the connection.

@echo off

:: ADD RAS ENTRY TO PHONE BOOK

type RAS >> "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk"

::DIAL RAS SERVER

rasphone -D "RAS Connection"
