That means you don't already have a direct route to the IP you specified 
as the gateway address.  You should have used the IP of the remote 
tunnel interface endpoint which should be reachable when the tunnel is 
up (ifconfig should show both your local ip and the ptp remote ip).

Packets go to the most specific route - so anything not specified in a 
route statement or connected directly will go to the default gateway.
"route -n" will display the routing table and if you understand how 
netmasks work you can see where everything will go on the next hop.
