[Bug 1266381] Re: OpenVPN does not stop IPv6 from leaking data

[Seth Arnold]

I don't believe OpenVPN makes any effort to prevent communications
through other configured networks; it is designed to allow creating a
virtual private network, not provide a mechanism to tunnel all other
traffic off the system out of an untrusted network. I do not know if
there are any drop-in easy tools to make this happen, but to my
knowledge Tor is the closest fit -- and even then, only if you can
select a specific exit node of your choosing, would it be relatively
close to what I think you're trying to accomplish.

You may yet be able to accomplish what you wish with OpenVPN and the
'ip' or 'route' commands, but that's probably best handled at
http://askubuntu.com/ instead.

Thanks
