This seems to be the fastest method. Very neat.

Since we use pac scripts I refined my search.

Here is another module tailored to this:
http://code.google.com/p/pacparser

There is a python example at the wiki:

It seems that the script can even test if connection is available.
I was looking for this earlier.

KInd regards,
Timmie
