Thanks Sam that sounds just like what we're looking for. Unfortunately the
remote VPNs that need to implement this behaviour are Snapgear routers and
we'd rather not have to make too many customisations to the Snapgear
firmware. For now we'll have to resort to either rebooting the Snapgear or
an expect script that does the --replace.

Thanks,
