Thumbs up [Centos7] How to force application(s) to use VPN tunnel


Hello,

[OpenVPN] I would like to force some applications to use the VPN tunnel, while allowing other applications to use the unsecured internet access.

Can anyone assist with this, specific to CentOS 7?

Thanks in any case.

I suppose you could make a user called "vpn", configure it's network access to go through the VPN, and have all the programs that need the VPN run from that. Otherwise, unless the application directly supports it, I think you're out of luck.
