The service script for openconnect supports multiple vpn tunnels. You need to create a symbolic link to /etc/init.d/openconnect in /etc/init.d for each tunnel instead of calling it directly: ln -s /etc/init.d/openconnect /etc/init.d/openconnect.vpn0 Also, create a configuration file for the tunnel in /etc/openconnect. To follow this example, the configuration file would be called /etc/openconnect/vpn0.conf. See man openconnect for the options that can go in this file. You can then start the vpn tunnel like this: rc-service openconnect.vpn0 start If you would like to run preup, postup, predown, and/or postdown scripts, You need to create a directory in /etc/openconnect with the name of the vpn: mkdir /etc/openconnect/vpn0 Then add executable shell files: mkdir /etc/openconnect/vpn0 cd /etc/openconnect/vpn0 echo '#!/bin/sh' > preup.sh cp preup.sh predown.sh cp preup.sh postup.sh cp preup.sh postdown.sh chmod 755 /etc/openconnect/vpn0/*
