The problem is with the value you set DISPLAY to.  You want to use the IP 
address associated with the far end of the VPN.  Figuring out that value 
isn't always easy.  Sometimes you can run "who" at the far end and it will 
tell you the hostname or IP address it thinks you're connecting from.  Also, 
sometimes the VPN software itself will tell you the far-end IP address if 
you look at the detailed log as it's bringing up the VPN.
