3. once finish,extract the file and continue with compile
tar -zxvf vpnclient-5350a-rtm-en-linux-x86.tar.gz && cd vpnclient* && make
4. connecting/tunneling to packettix.net

5. inside vpncmd

now you can start routing you connection to vpn..
sorry but this is a noob routing technique...it will redirect all your traffic to vpn

route del default
route add default dev vpn_0

for more about how to do advance routing in linux please refer tohttp://lartc.org/howto/index.html
p/s: to back to your current connection.. stop the service and reroute back to your original gateway.
in my case
./vpnclient stop
route del default
route add default dev ppp0
where ppp0 is my celcom 3g modem interface

for those who didn't know what the hell packetix.net is....

PacketiX.NET is an academic, non-profit online environment for PacketiX VPN, the VPN technology developed by SoftEther Corporation.

more info please visit their website at http://packetix.net/en/

update: you need to enable ipforwarding or else you won't be able to connect to internet.
$ echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
or simply edit your /etc/sysctl.conf file

hope it this guide will give benefit to everyone.. thank you ;)
