This honestly is distro-specific. Xandros will leave the old default route and just add the one that the VPN tells it to add. The result is that Firefox still hits the gateway page that yells at he user to start the vpn client..when they already have.
Current behaviour on Ubuntu is to replace the existing route with what the VPN server says is the correct route. This means that if you are trying to get on company wireless and need everything to go through the VPN, you're in great shape. If you're remote and only want certain IPs to go through the VPN, I believe network manager has an option in the GUI to only use the VPN for ___________________________ and then you list the IPs. -- No default internet traffic after connecting to VPN https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124663 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
