Change rc.local to use the explicit path to the executable in /usr/local/sbin. That directory might not be in init(8)'s $PATH when rc.local get's executed.

Once connected I do not seem to be able to go any where except for the net block used for my VPN. I gather this has to do with routes however if I SSH into the VPN server, I can ping internal network resources fine.
Since you have not shared your server and client configurations, your guess is as good as any other. Compare the output of "route -n show -inet" both as a VPN and non-VPN user. If you are using a virtual IP address pool for VPN users, take note of the routing to that subnet.

...I use pppoe but it does not reconnect should it get disconnected unless the system is rebooted. Anyway to resolve?
Maybe, maybe not. But no one will be able to assist unless you post your configuration and the error messages you receive when you attempt to restart.
