This is a know bug: ID# 4873060
It's ugly, but you might be able to get around it by monitoring /var/
log/ppp.log.

I had a simple enough goal: trigger a dynamic DNS update for each
VPN client as soon as they connected. This was easy enough to do
with an ip-up script in /etc/ppp, but while it executes
successfully, the mere presence of this script prevents any actual
IP traffic from going over the VPN once it connects. Even if the
script just exits after the shebang, nothing, not even a ping will
go through. Removing the script and reconnecting sets everything
back to normal again.
My first question is simply: Why does this happen?
My second question is: Is there any other way I can get a script to
run whenever a VPN connection is established short of writing a
daemon app that registers for SC notifications?
