server public ip address: 55.55.55.55
client local ip address: 192.168.0.1

what is 192.168.10.1 ?

I think, 192.168.10.1 = server VPN ip address.

What did you add to /etc/hosts
When the init script runs I get: SIOCDELRT: No such process

I got every thing but DNS to automate with this script, it took me a while to figure what to change in /etc/network/interfaces to get the DHCP request to automate but I cant get DNS nameserver to automate. I'm guessing this error has something to do with it.

I also mv vpnclient /etc/local so I had to change /usr/local/bin/vpnclient start - /usr/local/vpnclient/vpnclient start

55.55.55.55 = public ip of vpn server

192.168.0.1 = client default gateway local ip address
$ route -n

192.168.10.1 = virtual network adapter vpn_vpn's default gateway local ip given by the vpn server through dhcp request
$ ip neigh

This is what I got after running those comamnds.

I am also following this thread:

master@universe:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/vpnclient start
Starting VPN Client
/etc/init.d/vpnclient: 19: /etc/init.d/vpnclient: /usr/local/bin/vpnclient: not found

Unknown interface vpn_vpn
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
SIOCDELRT: No such process

i've changed it a little bit
