Idézem/Quoting Patrick Baldwin <[email protected]>:

I verified the full path to VPNC:

12$ which vpnc

/usr/sbin/vpnc

Since VPNC doesn't make a pidfile, I created a wrapper script:

You must have a hard time battling with a nearly one decade-old software.

vpnc has a --pid-file option
see https://svn.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/vpnc/trunk/config.c

"store the pid of background process in <filename>"

If your goal is sustainability you must write a proper sysvinit/systemd init file
with process management, logging etc.

See for example https://github.com/mgorny/vpnc

I could help you write a sysvinit script.

All the best to you!
