VPN firewall
Adjust the following to your own port, network ID and protocol:
IPTABLES=`which iptables`
INT_ETH=eth0

Many VPN networks
If you plan to use many VPN networks then you can use something like that:
IPTABLES=`which iptables`
INT_ETH=eth0
IP_LAN_ETH=`/sbin/ifconfig $INT_ETH | grep 'inet addr:' | cut -d: -f2 | awk '{ print $1}'`
INT_VPN=tun0
