It sounds to me like you are trying to push a route to the VPN server to go
through the VPN connection -- that can never work! You are asking your
system to route the encrypted VPN packets through the VPN itself.

To confirm:

a) shorewall clear
b) Connect to your VPN server. I'm guessing that it still doesn't work
   indicating that your problem has nothing to do with Shorewall.
c) Be sure to "shorewall start" after the test.
