start a new terminal from a script after opening VPN

Hi all,

I am trying to write a script that launch the cisco vpn client from the command line and then connects to a remote host using ssh.

When i connect to the cisco vpn using vpnclient client connect the last lines of output from that client is

Encryption: 168-bit 3-DES
Authentication: HMAC-MD5
IP Compression: None
NAT passthrough is active on port UDP 4500
Local LAN Access is disabled

but doesnt return to command prompt.

How in my script can i launch a new terminal to be able to run ssh commands?
